This is a great example of cherry picking to be frank. You could find a great many people of any race, including Caucasian, saying exactly the same things. Fight the idea not the person.

Those are actual real nazis... Those "free speech" platforms always are full of them.

Don't know what they have against Jews in specific, but I guess it's just the same principle that makes people believe conspiracy theory. You don't have much power in life and maybe feel uneducated, and start looking for an alternative that makes you look superior and smarter than everyone else. "You are better then the jews, you even saw through their evil plans while all the other sheeps don't realize." At that feels good if you got nothing else... Sad.

I hope they are just edgy teens... But sadly they are probably grown men that really mean this.

if you think we/they have a bat lot and are in a bad spot and are vulnerable and don't have much power, shouldn't that mean you should go out of your way to be compassionate and uplifting like with any other group with those traits?

Yeah maybe. But it's usually really difficult because they are brainwashed into not trusting anyone from outside their conspiracy bubble.

E.g. how would you support your aunt out of believing in homepathy, anti-vaxx and other esotheric stuff? Everything you would say is seen as "mainstream" propaganda that is trying to derail her from the "truth".
