No. Leftist means anti-capitalist.

No liberals are not leftist.

Look up indigenous socialism. Those tend to work. They tend to get crushed by larger powers but they work internally. Unless of course you mean by work you mean be the mightiest. Yeah no.

There’s also things like the Paris commune.

Is a person who has been studying neo-Nazism I can probably tell you.

The answer is things like insecurities and hang ups that people have. For example this one person was living in an abusive home. He didn’t really feel respect ed and his stepfather was incredibly abusive.

But then there were some people that actually paid attention to him and cared about what he had to say. He felt a connection and joined a neo-Nazi group. He left at some point because the book is about a former neo-Nazi but yeah.

It was easy for him to hate minorities because he already hated the world. The world that wasn’t kind to him.

He was convinced by these neo-Nazis that the reason why his father is a drunk and alcoholic and why his life is so s*** is because of the Jews. Yep. somehow the Jews are able to do that.

And he fell for it too because he was only 14 years old.

Yes, because the ultimately didn’t get rid of the root of the problem and so they go back to their ways. Very similar to how a person who doesn’t do rehab correctly or had a bad experience with it will go back to using drugs when things get hard because that’s their coping mechanism.

They need to have better coping mechanisms.

The exit program in Germany for example has a 3% recidivism rate. Not too bad.
