He has sort of a point buried deep in there; He's just not making it well.

Partly that any press is good press. Nazis are (still) a small enough subculture that it's not worth advertising them as the main counterculture.

I don't think it's small the way a lot of people assume. Way WAY too many people agree with a lot of the shit Nazis say and that's how they gain power. It happened in Germany; most Nazi supporters were just regular Joes who agreed with their hateful shit. A lot of right wingers are like that.

Most people have already picked a side on the issue anyway. That's what makes me worry and those two points together make me sympathize with OP.
