With all due respect to my comrades, "kill all Nazis" isn't actually a real life strategy right now. And yes, the ideological, conscientious, and class differences in white supremacist movements are exceptionally important. Not all Nazis must be handled with the same tactics.

There are a variety of ways we combat white supremacy at the activism level. This includes counter-recruitment, de-radicalization, protest opposition, disempowerment, estrangement, and so forth. Different strategies are more or less effective based on the specific groups.

Three Percenters and Oathkeepers recruit heavily from military vets. White Power and Skinhead groups often self-isolate. Confederates meet openly. Young identitarians target colleges and high schools. And so forth.

When you say "we must handle all Nazis the same" you are basically saying "we must kill all Nazis." Well? *gestures*

No. No I'm not. When mean "Kill all Nazis", then you'll know I mean "Kill all Nazis." And I'm saying this as someone who has been fighting the White Supremacist movement online since 2010. As a Jew, I've been fighting against them in some form or other my entire life.

My entire family on my father's side except for his mother & father were wiped out by the Nazis. When I was a little kid we had to deal with their threats and assaults. I've been attacked by them both online and offline due to the content I've created.

So please don't assume what I mean when I say; "We must deal with all Nazis the same" if that assumption is just to classify me and people like me into some sort of unreasonable mass.
