Be careful of this. There are very few actual national socialists in the United States, and they certainly aren't all part of a single organisation like Al Qaeda.

Even among them the majority are probably against genocide since they all deny the holocaust.

What you say does however apply to The Daily Stormer. So I agree that they're a threat and should have been taken down years ago.

Holocaust denial is a pro-genocide ideology. To deny the holocaust of the past is part of denying violence in the present day. It also implies that Jews are liars - it's a very strong piece of anti-semitism.

> Holocaust denial is a pro-genocide ideology

Can you make this case more clearly? I get that it's anti-semitic (the lying point) but not how it's pro-genocide.

Holocaust denial is not something people come to accidentally or through a rational evaluation of the evidence. It's something people reach through anti-semitism. What do you think the reactions of someone denying the holocaust in the past would be to evidence of more genocide being planned in the present or future? Deniers are signalling their willingness to help genocide by turning a blind eye to it. They're showing that fear or hatred of Jews is more important to them than facts.

Believing some Jews and other enemies of the Nazis (e.g. Allied governments) lie is not the same thing as believing Jews should be exterminated.
