[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, 12 pages of you all working hard to call a young Jewish male a Nazi. You don't usually see something like that outside of Stormfront.[/quote]
There is an undercurrent of antisemtism here. As you say, a lot of effort to make a young Jewish guy look bad. Otherwise, why was his religion brought up so early in the thread? I wonder if it the same PP who posted something about "young right-wing Jews" elsewhere, and not in a flattering light.

I think when someone is being accused of being a neo-nazi, the fact that they're Jewish is relevant.[/quote]

One would also think sexual alignment would be relevant as to whether someone is anti-gay or not as well, but there have been numerous instances of conservatives who are publicly on the forefront of vicious anti-gay rhetoric and legislation ending up themselves being caught up in gay sex scandals.  As examples Larry Craig, Ted Haggard, David Dreier, Mark Foley, there have been many.  And I would also point to folks like Milo Yiannopoulos as well, who is gay but who is a huge cheerleader for the most staunchly anti-gay.

In the murk of the conservative world, up is down, down is up, and not all is what it seems.

In summary, YES it is entirely, very much possible in the conservative world that a Jew could end up promoting white supremacists.  His being a Jew rules absolutely nothing out.[/quote]

Ironically enough, Milo Yiannopolis is actually ethnically half Jewish (through his mother and his maternal grandmother). While Milo himself does not explicitly espouse "white superiority" rhetoric, he is virulently anti-Muslim, anti-immigration (despite himself being on an O1 visa), and thoroughly bigoted.

To claim that a Jewish man cannot have Alt Right sympathies and express solidarity with white nationalist rhetoric solely because he is Jewish is laughable. This isn't your grand-daddies KKK anymore; the goalposts of bigotry in America have shifted to better reflect our society today and the right wing's newest grievances.[/quote]
