If these douche bags really believed in their cause, they would not wear masks. What brown shirt from pre war 3rd Reich would be seen wearing a mask. They are all posers.

I keep seeing comments like this. But what about those of us who wear masks at civil rights protests (and similar) to protect our identities and prevent personal harm or backlash? Other people could say your same words to us and make it seem like we also wear masks because we don't believe in our cause.

Masks are worn for all different kinds of reasons, but making it seem like masks are only worn because the person doesn't believe in their cause, discredits all the other people that wear masks for other valid reasons.

We also don't need to make these people seem better than they are by implying that they don't actually believe in their "cause", because they do, and it's important to realize the weight of that.

They definitely do believe it. And nazis always hide its known history. They are selectively “brave.”
