All threads hit the Godwin threshold so lets just start there
So crazy folk of all stripes like to call their political enemies Nazis.
Lets vote and see which is the best fit.

None of them. Some Muslims, barbaric evil vermin though they are, are not neo-Nazis.

There are no modern equivalent of Nazis in the United States.

I live in Wilmington N.C. These days about as far from Hollywood as you can get in the 48 and still be next to a major studio.

Is that a grocer's apostrophe, or are we talking about that which belongs to Nazi?

I assumed it was the former and went with Neo Nazis because I don't like ideological accusations of Nazism except when they are used against actual Nazis.

Bummer. At least you live closer to Bloomington than I do. Oh, just a moment ...

Hey! How about them Nazis? A real buncha losers, huh?

... I'm back. I think Mr. Miller still lives there. I'd kinda like to meet him and say "Thanks".

You got me and there is no easy way to fix it so I guess my shame will live in infamy.

I don't know I think the neo-nazis are playing dress-up and are not political in the classic sense.
They are more like live action role-players mixed with gang-members not a going political concern.

This is true for Western Europe and the USA. In Eastern Europe, however, they are a going political concern.

They are like LARPers crossed with gangsters, in the main, but they seemed the closest fit to, well, Nazism.

Like Croatia and places east ?
Yeah a bit scary but the serious far-right tries to keep the dressing up in your grampas clothes bit down.

I would say the National Organization of Women, but they seem to have gone into some form of senescence.
