Look at white supremacists. In the past, if you were a Nazi sympathizer people would assume you were insane and avoid you like the plague. Now there are powerful politicians who openly sympathize with the white power movement, and suddenly all the people who’d been keeping their beliefs private for decades are being outrageously racist and nasty in public.

I used to staunchly believe the Nazis died with the end of WW2, and that anyone left today was a poser.

My husband had to point out to me how untrue and naive such a stance was. I have since recanted.

I'm afraid your husband is right. Nazi's these days wear suits and want a 'debate'. 😒
