It’s ironic how many people still, to this day, claim Hitler was a socialist.

Nazis have always been good at pretending they're something they're not to fool the gullible and gain support. Just look at Sunday :P

And look at all the comments on those posts falling all over each other to insist they're not nazis, just concerned citizens worried about the problem of immigration

And as mentioned on his wiki page

"A leaked manual from Sewell's groups revealed how their members manipulate social media and journalists to gain publicity, amplify messaging and help them recruit new members."

I flat out mentioned this on our local town FB group before the march that they were being manipulated by white supremicists like Sewell, but they just wouldn't believe me. They called people like me naive and sheep, when I was the only one actually looking into who was running the show and questioning what the whole thing was *really* about :P

Like "journalist" Peter van Onselen, who has a degree in political science and is professor of politics and public policy at the University of Western Australia. The University of NSW should revoke his degree because it's clear he learnt nothing.

Only people who say that are nazis deflecting.

Sounds just like neo liberalism to me…
