Are neo nazis not a subset of nazis? If not, how would you refer to the grouping of both ww2 German nazis and neo nazis who share many beliefs and symbols? I don’t see a good reason why that group can’t just be called nazis.
These kinds of discussions are basically never made in good faith and are reminiscent of the last (good) Wolfenstein game where chuds were losing their mind because “the KKK and the nazis would never have worked together!” and so forth.
At best you are looking at someone being overly pedantic because their entire sense of self worth is to be “technically correct” and it boils down to “They weren’t registered with the party in 1942” and so forth.
More often it becomes chuds who overly fixate on “the Z stance for Socialism!” because they know they are evil mother fuckers but want to spread the hate around.
must say I hit a nerve here, hence unpopular opinion.
Not really. Its just a stupid opinion.
If anything - this minority of republicans you are speaking of should be called “neo-nazi”.
“Neo” = “New”.
So still a Nazi, just newer. Your complaint is we don’t specify that the modernized Nazis are modernized by name. That is what “neo” means. Modernized or revived.
So let’s recap - your complaint is that the current batch is not specifically called ‘new’.
Its not that your opinion is unpopular, its that your opinion is just really fucking stupid.
Edit: It would seem I am the one who struck a nerve, for pointing out how incredibly stupid it is to specify that these people are, in fact, not 90yr old former members of the Nazi party in Germany.
Are said republicans members of the national socialist german workers part? No.

Most people with sense are going to disagree with a stupid opinion.
If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and swims like a duck, we call it a duck, whether it’s native to Europe or America.
And, let’s be real here while we’re at it nitpicking statements, it’s most definitely not just a ‘minority’ of republicans anymore.
Not really. Its just a stupid opinion.
