NAZI SOCIALISTS WERE FAR LEFTIES!

These men who have joined the the Nazi Party seem to be misguided. Why would you follow someone like Hitler who was a nut case and really on the nose! If you get my drift. He certainly did not want to preserve the "Anglo Saxondom" as he bombed the shit out of Great Britain known as the Nazi Blitz. He wanted to exterminate us just look at who funded this monster and his comrades. They were Far Lefties that is why they were known as Nazi Socialists. They were not on the Right! It is a hoax

Sticking me neck out here (cont.)....

Let me break this down: According to the SPLC there are 1002 hate groups in US and the largest boasts 402 members (http://www.splcenter.org). U.S. Population = 307,006,500 (Australia is 23 mil to give you an idea). Assuming that all of the other groups have 400 members, than 402*1002=400,800 members. 400,800/308,745,538=.0013 (less than 1% of population). Hate groups are despicable in any nation; yet, making pat generalizations (even towards another country) still displays hate. Peace to all..

@ Terry: Perhaps you should visit America before you assume that we are all uneducated trailer trash. I am sorry that you dislike American politics, not many in America are pleased either. As with any large movement, changing a government is as difficult turning a cruise liner: you travel a long distance before you see a change of direction. As to this video, apparently those living outside of Australia/Middle East are unable to view this video, so I cannot comment on it's content.

False Impression

If I was not living in the US or have never been there I would have the false impression after watching the program that half the population are Neo-Nazi teaparty people decorated in tatoos and parading frequently down the streets waving Nazi flags when in actual fact I have never seen one, NOT one, such exhibition. Which means that it must be very rare indeed and a small, so small minority and occurence.

Black Panther = NAACP?

I wonder if there will be an uproar if Rick Rowley were to do a 'documentary" equating the Black Panthers to the NAACP even if in the most tenuous of linkages because there will always be extremist and fringe groups claiming to be "teaparty", conservatives, christians, etc, even if they hijack and are not representative of the group because it suits their agenda to do so.

Political Hatched job

Political Hatched job is right! That is the problem with news media, not only in the US. Michael Moore disguised as "documentary" reporting. Anyone who disagree and Obama's policies and record is labeled "racist", right-wing extremist, disrespectful, etc. by the media or liberals to intimidate and silence them.

Based reporting

As an American, and a minority, I have never seen such a biased reporting. Even the very liberal mainstream media like NBC, ABC, CBS news would not have passed muster for such prejudiced reporting. They would have been ridiculed for the 2+2=10 connectivity that neo-Nazis equal "mainstream teaparty" . I can identify as a teaparty conservative, and I know teaparty conversatives as friends, and they are far from Neo Nazi right-wing extremists as you Rick Rowley has tried to portray the tea party.
