It's Not Fear, It's Observation; And/Or: History Repeats

According to Billy Briggs, Hitler’s birthplace has become the focus for neo-Nazis across the world:

And so I have come to Austria to investigate how Fascism and
extremism are moving, unchecked, into the forefront of its society. 

... And just as the Nazis gained power on the back of extreme
nationalism and virulent anti-Semitism, the recent unprecedented
gains in Austria were made on a platform of fear about immigration
and the perceived threat of Islam.

FPO leader Heinz Christian Strache, for example, described women
in Islamic dress as ‘female ninjas’.

How could this be unprecedented if it happened once before? And: Perceived threat? How about actual threat. And and: looks to me like it's not just the neo-Nazis, but the paleo-Nazis too....And and and: how is Strache's description an example of fear? I don't get it. It's kinda funny. Or, who are the nazi Nazis now? Austrians? Or Islamo-barbarians? And and and and: has anyone around here read Steyn's America Alone? That's on the BookAss MustRead list. Short version: Demographics Are Us.
