(8,556 posts)The dedicated members really do believe all that shit. Many eventually realize it's all rubbish, but when they're in it, they often buy it.
I'm reminded of that HBO special called 'Gladiator Days,' which was later picked up by the prison-obsessed MSNBC. It's about one murder in a Utah prison, where a couple neo-Nazi gang members killed a black inmate in a lame 'respect' issue, which is the cause of a lot of violence in prisons.
One of the killers was transferred to a different prison where he found God and rejected his neo-Nazi past. The interview with him was interesting, because he said that while he now understands that all of that stuff is ridiculous, at the time he believed it 100 percent.
So a lot of these guys really do think that whites are the master race, that Jews control the world, and whatever else.
They may be deluded, but many of them really do believe what they say. And that's the sad part.
