must say I hit a nerve here, hence unpopular opinion.

Not really. Its just a stupid opinion.

If anything - this minority of republicans you are speaking of should be called "neo-nazi".

"Neo" = "New".

So still a Nazi, just newer. Your complaint is we don't specify that the modernized Nazis are modernized by name. That is what "neo" means. Modernized or revived.

So let's recap - your complaint is that the current batch is not specifically called 'new'.

Its not that your opinion is unpopular, its that your opinion is just really fucking stupid.

Edit: It would seem I am the one who struck a nerve, for pointing out how incredibly stupid it is to specify that these people are, in fact, not 90yr old former members of the Nazi party in Germany.
