NazBol
I understand that nazbol is an utterly incoherent (and basically entirely online) reactionary ideology, and maybe I'm naiive for thinking this (and I'm definitely not defending the abhorrent views many of them have, nor do I think they should ever be tolerated here), but does it not serve as a useful pipeline to salvage people from full blown nazism?
The way I see it, best case scenario, people initially drawn to nazbol are eventually forced to grapple with the inconherency and may end up deciding after a time that its reactionary features are not worth retaining, and may eventually just continue on down the communism pipeline. Worst case, they are marooned in what is essentially a dead end ideology with virtually zero real world organizing, but also end up being quite alienated from "full nazi" movements that do have real world organizing and real consequences.
I don't know of any other political "pipeline" that is capable of moving people on the far right to the left so efficiently. I'm curious what others think about this.
"So true, oomfie. Dads, am I right?"
I appreciate your honest answer. I do agree with what you're saying, but at the same time I think people who already are firmly in the camp of "nazi" have a already had leftist language sufficiently muddied in their minds. Introducing (admittedly sometimes distorted) leftist concepts, and even the simple idea that "actually, Marx and Marxism are based" seems like it could only be an improvement when working backwards from nazism.
