No one is 'downplaying' the threat of 'far-right/neo-nazi' in Australian or anywhere.
Are you interpreting people asking for who is considered 'far right' to be 'downplaying' them?
No, they are trying to work out the crap from the reality. We have experienced on FWR a flood of posters declaring this person or this group is 'far right' when they are not. But those posters declaring people far right are doing so to make some kind of fucked up political point.
I have not seen anyone deny that the National Socialist Network was there when evidence became clear who they were. Instead what we have are posters determined to portray this group, the National Socialist Network, as being truthfully supportive of the women there.
That group of men are so deficit in thinking that they didn't even do their research. Yet there are posters on this thread pushing something that when you scratch the surface is not actually feasible.
I see frustrated posters who have been posting on this thread for days now being demanded to provide answers that have been answered with fucking screeds of posts before this.
People seeking clarification before agreeing with someone's accusation about someone being 'far right' is not an indication of downplaying the 'far right'. It is as they are saying they are doing and are explaining why.
Because 'far right' is misused so often on FWR and all over the internet that people want to be careful to make sure they make accusation statements.
