How is it possible to fly a confederate flag after the civil war? How is it possible to be a nazi sympathizer after WWII?

Aren't those people, in Germany without the Confederate Flag since the German Empires flag from WW1 is used instead, quite often the same people?
There are plenty of folks who support “states rights” (to slavery) but don’t support fascism. They just don’t realise that they are fascist themselves (government by corporations, profit before people, find some minority group to blame for all your problems, etc)

There are also folks caught up in pro-fascist organisations simply because they want to express their general anger at the world for not living up to their expectations.
