It makes sense that Nazis are trying to stay relevant and cater to younger generations by using memes like Pepe the Frog, which the Anti-Defamation League recently labeled a hate symbol. Popular culture is an easy way to reach a younger audience. Still, a business cant stand by and watch while the alt-right ruins their image or else well see more instances like when The Daily Stormer claimed New Balance sneakers the official shoes of white people.

Free Pepe!
If a College Newspaper can not even come to grips with the FACT that the National Socialist Workers Party(NAZI) was and always be a Wild Eyed Leftist Ideology married to Communism at the hip. Then shouldn’t these worthless schools Defrauding the Students be SHUT DOWN?
We are Socialists, we are enemies of today’s
capitalistic economic system for the exploitation
of the economically weak, with it’s unfair salaries,
with it’s unseemly evaluation of a human being
according to wealth and property instead of
responsibility and performance, and we are all
determined to destroy this system under all conditions.

The Nazis were a German political party that has not existed for several generations, and is outlawed in Germany. There are no Nazis, so what does the author really mean— name names. They are trying to tie the extremely small number of actual neo-Nazis to ALL right wing politics.
Anyone not a marxist is a nazi/fascist in the eyes of the left.
“nazis are alt right?
i thought they were socialists?
isnt that alt-left?”
Nazism (national, not international, socialism) was partly based on Italian Fascism which wad also a movement of the Left. Benito Mussolini was the foremost socialist in Europe before the First World War.
Progressives in the United States deliberately changed their name to Liberals during the 1920s, after conceding the obvious - that they had piled up too much bad press before and during the First World War to continue to be effective.
Whatever name they prefer, the Left is monumentally uninterested in their own history. They were wildly infatuated with Mussolini and Hitler and missed no opportunities to lecture the American public on how those guys were they way of the future. The torrent of praise continued after Germany invaded Poland to being the Euro phase of the Second World War; the Left was a major player in the America First isolationist movement.
All of this kept on until The Third Reich invaded the USSR. Then the Left reversed themselves and bean demanding American intervention. The Soviet Union was their favorite country.
No historical revisionism can come close to the enormity of the falsehoods that the Left still voices, concerning the purported right-wing orientation of Nazi Germany. TV documentaries on History Channel and American Heroes Channel have been explicitly declaring that when the Nazis assumed power in Germany, they deliberately transformed themselves from a movement of the Left into a movement of the Right: the “proof” of this change is alleged to be the cozy, cooperative behavior of the German government in its dealings with German industry.
Major firms - Krupp, IG Farben, DWM, MAN, Junkers, Heinkel, Henschel were some - were indeed suffered to exist because they were key players in Nazi rearmament and infrastructure rebuilding plans, but they did the government’s bidding, not the other way around. But every other aspect of Nazi “reform” of German society (art, culture, education, religion, whatnot) went forward in lockstep with Left orthodoxy.
Every other German institution that was merely suspected of being a safe harbor for Right views was treated as a threat by the Nazis and suppressed ruthlessly, in much the same way they treated rival subgroups inside the Nazi movement, and rival political parties.
