Some people are seeing the rise in hate crimes and scratching their heads as if this wasn't explicitly stated the day of the Charlottesville terrorist attack:
We're making the mistake of treating Charlottesville like an anomaly. And while we're avoiding the much needed national conversation about the resurgence of White Supremacy groups, their recruitment efforts on campuses have increased by over 200(!!!)%

We're past subtle warnings. The growth of hate groups is already resulting in the loss of life like we've never seen. And since the president simply sees them as part of his base, we can't expect national leadership on this. It's up to us to ring the alarm and counter this. 
People bemoan Nazis "being given a platform" in the media, but it's been proven that ignoring them doesn't work. They already have their own platforms where they go unchallenged and now have a taste of political power in the US(!). It's imperative we challenge them at every turn.
