A random rasist is not a Nazi, correct. They are to Nazis what a itch is to a broken bone. A whole different level of fucked up.

You mean like promoting conspiracy theories to excuse violence against minorities, forming a coalition out of the most violent racists you can find, and using that coalition of domestic terrorists to assault Congress while it's in session?

Because that's literally the chain of events that got Hitler in prison writing Mein Kampf in the first place.

I don't really understand. Did I miss something? What I see in the post here is someone who only wants to meet white people. That is racist, but nothing compared to what a Nazi does.

That one can become the other is a different issue. So far, all I see is a flyer. That is about as harmless as racism can be. Calling that Nazi removes any meaning of that word, which should be reserved for people that are extremely violent etc.
