Something to consider in the sudden rise in Nazi activities

[underpants]

I lump all of them in as "Nazis".

Okay so we heard about the increased membership in these groups during the OBAMA years. Let's take the step of not dismissing that purely as free publicity. Suddenly you have new energetic assholes who get tired of having meetings and want to DO SOMETHING!!! The old guys are just that. Years of nothing. Then you have people like Spencer, Bowling and Kessler who see an opportunity to become leaders of the movement, really any movement. They create activities that appease the hostiles BUT also unleash them into the general public with horrific results.

My point is that I don't think there's really a rise in that movement but there is new blood and they want to act.

1. Nazis everywhere, like diarrhea

Yep, they are coming out because they have powerful friends in the White House

2. There is that too

I think they knocked the hornet's nest down from the inside.

3. This week I've been reading Devil's Bargain

The author, Joshua Green, interviewed Bannon extensively for the book. Bannon told him that after Breitbart died and he, Bannon, took over managing Breitbart News he wanted to bring in younger readers. Bannon spent time at several online gaming sites populated by hundreds of thousands of young males and saw that population as the ones he wanted draw in to Breitbart.

Fast forward to recent times when we learned that Bannon wanted B/News to be a venue for the alt-right. And there you have the reason why your conclusion is spot on regarding new blood.
