You believe in establishing a society based on racial purity and authoritarian rule to promote national unity and strength.
Neo-Nazism is a political ideology that emerged after World War II, drawing upon the ideas and principles of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, commonly known as the Nazi Party, which was led by Adolf Hitler. Neo-Nazism is characterized by its proponents' admiration for the Nazi regime, and their desire to revive its ideologies, symbols, and practices. It is a far-right political movement that often incorporates elements of white supremacy, ultranationalism, xenophobia, and Holocaust denial.
The roots of Neo-Nazism can be traced back to the immediate aftermath of…

How does learning about the consequences of historical hate movements affect your view on similar current ideologies?
@9JLXKW2Republican4mos4MO
It makes me think that Neo-Nazism is a terrible thing and no person should be a part of it because of the history of it.
@9JM5WYYWomen’s Equality4mos4MO
The history behind Nazis are not good at all. It is sick, and vile. Especially with the history behind it.
@9JLXSCDWomen’s Equality4mos4MO
I think that everyone should not discriminate against each other color or religion.
@9JLX4MD4mos4MO
It is very disappointing that people from our own country would want to be so hateful. Our great-grandfathers fought in WW2 just to come home to our neighbors to be hateful.
@9JLXXQV4mos4MO
Its crazy that some people still hate on races and religion when historically hating a race or religion has killed millions. People need change and except all kinds of people.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
What emotions stir within you when you see symbols like the swastika being used in contemporary settings?
@9H8XBWL6mos6MO
Fear and Anger are brought up when seeing anything "Neo-Nazi" related because of the evil that symbol stands for and the ignorant support allowing it to survive in our modern day.
@9H9842Z6mos6MO
I really dislike seeing any sign of nazis in public.
@9H897GV6mos6MO
I really dislike seeing symbols of nazism in public
@9H8WTT7Republican6mos6MO
I feel like it should be banned and stay banned because it's a sensitive topic.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
What's your immediate reaction when someone defends an ideology with a history of violence?
@9J6TH42 4mos4MO
My immediate reaction is that the person defending the ideology has been throwing their ideas around in an echo chamber of people who also think this way. I think this person should have more exposure to other types of people, learn more about the world and what that ideology actually means, and do some more reflection afterward. I think attacking them and saying they're stupid or evil doesn't solve anything. Very few people believe they are evil or perpetuating evil, and so if you tell them they are, they will automatically discount your opinion. As hard as it is, you have to listen, understand their points, and begin a slow process of picking it apart and providing counterpoints. There's not a quick solution when someone is indoctrinated, but patience and kindness will often win out.
@9J6V5LL4mos4MO
Discontent often correlates with disappointment in the failure of the American dream. It doesn’t exist anymore. Conspiracy-thinking and polarization often relies on the “certainty” of the proposed solution without further examining the “enemy’s” stance. It provides the comfort of an absolute and neglects to recognize nuance of structural problems.
@9J7PYS4Republican4mos4MO
I believe that people are entitled to their opinion, but too much extreme on democrat side should be called out as being too liberal is making the country soft and weak, as well as indoctinating the children into changing their gender/sex. Making our future generations weaker. I also believe that stupid ideas/thoughts should be called out.
@9J6TC944mos4MO
my immediate response is what is ur problem, why would you support violence?
@9J6T8T94mos4MO
I think that using those terms is more or less directed when talking about the history behind it not so much being a threat when saying something that did happen and occur.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How important do you think it is to stand up against ideologies that promote racism and hate?
@9HL6SBJProgressive5mos5MO
I think it's very important to stand up against hate because minorities need to be protected from violent hate.
@9HL3RKY5mos5MO
It is of the highest importance. Any ideologies that stand for racism and hate aren't truly American values, and it is our duty to protect against hatred. Standing up against racism and hate aren't just the job of legislators; it is the job of all of us as people in the United States. We need to keep the system of hatred from continuing as it is. It is very important to stand up against hate and racism, and even more importantly those ideologies (like those of neo-Nazism and the KKK) that promote them.
@9HL6ZZ2Republican5mos5MO
I think it's very important to stand up to racism and hate, it's something that is taught throughout generations and in families, if people mature and teach their kids right racism and hate will eventually become less of an issue. But at the same time humans repeat history, at some point the majority of people will be at peace with others but there will always be some who won't, wether it's over seas or in the same country.
@9HL6ZQ75mos5MO
We need to make sure that people are educated about equality and the dangers of facism to make sure that facism is kept at bay.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Can a person truly be 'neutral' about neo-Nazism, or does that neutrality inadvertently support such ideologies?
@9H5996N6mos6MO
Neo-Nazism is inherently racist and support genocidal. Therefore, everyone should oppose it.
@9H58PP36mos6MO
Neutrality is a person's own stance, although they aren't actively protesting doesn't mean they support it.
@9H58QF26mos6MO
You can't simply be neutral considering all of the damage the Nazi's did and the dangerous ideals they promote
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Can understanding and learning from history help prevent the recurrence of ideologies like neo-Nazism, and how?
@9JHCKBLRepublican4mos4MO
I think that by not teaching kids at a young age about racism would decrease racism rates due to them not being brought up thinking they're different by where they're from or the color of their skin. I think however, that we should be taught history at a older and more mature age so we can understand our history and others and be cautious of offending words, phrases, etc.
@9JHCLGV4mos4MO
Yes, by learning about these topics in a sensitive manner we teach students the effects that these ideologies had in the past. If we don't teach them about it that becomes the equivalent of censorship. People argue against this because they are afraid of the past and think that by bringing it up it will repeat itself when reason the opposite is true. Just because an area of our history is shameful doesn't mean that it should not be shown. "The fact is that censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion."
@9JHCFMM4mos4MO
Yes, with schools preventing kids from learning especially on issues involving race, sexuality, etc it allows that hate to be brought to them and not recognizing the history of these cultures and people.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Why do you think some individuals find extremist ideologies appealing, and how can society address those underlying causes?
@9JHCBQN4mos4MO
By teaching them American Patriotism, and the importance our Republic and constitution, and to make it look cooler. Make our country look cool. Teach the, to be thankful for our great free nation. Teach them the dangers that our committed in nations like North Korea, teach the, about the horrors Holocaust, and compare that to the god given inalienable rights that America provides
@9JHLYHG4mos4MO
Because its not about making our country look cool its about the people in the country and how we are treated.
@9JHC6TG4mos4MO
They find them appealing because of how they were raised, and where they grew up.
@9JHC6ZC4mos4MO
the political polarization of our countries leads people to hating the 2 parties, and finding ways in radical beliefs
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
In what ways do personal experiences influence our stance on authoritarian ideologies?
@9JQHV7GLibertarian3mos3MO
I believe neo Nazism is overblown and most people don't believe in it but I believe it's imporant to attack these ideologies with ideas instead of violets.
@9JRMKDL3mos3MO
Neo Nazism is a form, yet, everyone can be entitled to how things fit to them, yet attacking in any form is unacceptable.
@9JQFTPS3mos3MO
The relationship between political orientations and personality traits is multifaceted, however, and extends far beyond Openness and general liberalism-conservatism.
@9JR6QGK3mos3MO
People may look at events going on around them one way, and think about them another way when they ote.
@9JQH8D93mos3MO
The choices that peole make are being effected by it.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Do you think it's possible to find common ground with someone who holds an extremist viewpoint, and what would that look like?
@9HZ43TP4mos4MO
i do believe that common ground can be found for other beliefs and by working through those better ideas can be found.
@9HZ3SRJ4mos4MO
It is possible to find common ground with anyone no matter what polical viewpoint that they hold even it may be a very small topic that may be agreed upon.
@9HZ42C74mos4MO
yes. i believe you can find common ground with anyone. however, it is hard to find common ground most times, as extremist individuals have a tendency to be closed minded.
@9HZ47CD 4mos4MO
I don't agree with neo-nazi's, their views are objectively wrong. It would depend on the radical or extremest view for me to agree with it. There are people in this world who know how to fix it and are labeled as extremest's because their views are unconventional.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If you were in charge, how would you prevent the spread of dangerous ideologies without infringing on freedom?
@9HY8GX8Republican4mos4MO
It is mainly already classified as hate speech so as long as they aren’t hurting people I wouldn’t do anything and if they do have them prosecuted for a crime they committed not based off beliefs
@9HY8QLT4mos4MO
If I was in charge id limit the spread atleast, theres no guarantee that it wont spread but atleast doing something to make it less likely wouldnt be a bad idea either.
@9HY8YBG4mos4MO
make it harder for people to accsess information about it and ban any website publicly for nazism.
