let me just make sure I have your defense of aimee correct here: she saw a tweet, from a daily stormer writer, went "I agree with that" without understanding fully that it came from the perspective of an actual white supremacist, and this is actually good and not alarming at all

again, your fascination with the online right is not universal. people don't necessarily see some guy show in their notifications and pull up a mental file like some online j edgar hoover. it's not "smart" or "savvy" to know who these people are. it's ridiculous.

pal I don't know the name of every internet nazi either but I can state with the utmost confidence I'm not out here "accidentally" liking or agreeing with their statements in blissful ignorance of what they are saying and I think that's true of a lot of us

so what? what is the value of this personal virtue of yours? are you somehow better than people who have never heard of these things? would knowing them improve other people? to the last two there, the answer is pretty obviously no, so what are talking about?

you're really on here trying to give aimee this completely unearned benefit of the doubt that she didn't know A) that the nazbol guy was sincere, B) she didn't know what "j-left" meant, and C) that she didn't know the Nazi she was inadvertently in agreement with

i'd go farther and say being a "sincere nazbol" is not a meaningful political stance in the first place. from what i know about aimee, i'm quite sure she didn't know the term "j-left." i can completely believe that she liked something on twitter without carefully checking it out.

if you're now pivoting to "identifying as nazbol is no big deal" then you are not a serious person in any way

okay, so the serious political position is that we have to identify and harass so-called "nazbols" on the internet. the funny thing is you guys actually create publicity for these people they otherwise wouldn't have and give them the cachet of having been attacked by "SJWs" (lol)
