If you can't see that then that is part of the problem.

I'm glad to see you have it all figured out. You may be unaware that ANTIFA and associated groups showed up at all the Trump rallies, not the other way around. They broke glass, set police cars on fire, split open the heads of Trump supporters with U-locks and billy clubs. Tried their best to shut down Trump rallies and succeeded in some cases. But somehow pointing out their violence is part of the problem?
If you can't see that Naziism is a very different and far more dangerous animal than hotheads in Antifa and BLM
then, heck yes, that is a major league problem

Consider this, for example: Charlottesville cops refused to protect synagogue from armed neo-Nazis
Still convinced that if Antifa had stayed away, all would have been well? Nothing is ever 'well' when Nazis march.

So your preferred flavor of insurrectionists get immunity from criticism?
Lol, nope.
Police in Charlottesville were told to stand down by authorities. City leaders and state government (All Democrats btw) did not do their job. It is never good to see Nazi symbols on display, but they are after all only symbols and protected speech. The ANTIFA carry around communist or anarchist symbols.
Nazis protested in a small city in Ky recently without incident. Authorities in that case did their job. Notice the difference.
Not according to the accounts of people who were actually there:
What the “Alt-Left” Trump Despises Was Actually Doing in Charlottesville Last Weekend
I want to think you, brother, for your unwavering support of Calvinism.
That is exactly what this is. He likes what they are against so in his mind their behavior gets a pass. I don't care what you are for or against when you all act the same then you are equally wrong. However, antifa, blm, and nazis are all repugnant both in their principles and their ideology. All of them are unAmerican.
You're empowering the Nazis with comments like that, which is a great shame.
Not depriving one of a constitutional right is not the same as empowering someone to use that right.
I'm arguing that you and them are one and the same.
When you have no argument call everyone nazis. This is your philosophy. You have discredited yourself. Further, there is no reaonable logic to support this claim. Its absurd and shows a lack of judgment due to hyper emotionalism. It is probably time for you to take a break and regroup.
Explain your 'argument '.
You'd like that I guess. Sorry to disappoint you but I think it important more than ever that you hear voices like mine, given what you have posted here. You say it's illogical; I say it's quite simple - to quote the Lord, "If you are not for us you are against us": if you are not anti fascist then by implication you are for the fascists. There are no neutral positions left after Charlottesville, and you need to decide which side you are on: the side advocating genocide and racism, or those opposed to them. As a Christian, it's a no-brainer.
What's it going to be for you ? How will history judge your stance?

Again more illogical "logic" from the left and it is this: "if you do not do it my way then you do not want the same thing I want."
This is what the hyper emotional left does. If you do not want to supply health care via government taxes then you do not want to help people.
If you do not want to give ongoing and unending money to welfare then you do not want to help people.
And now if you do not condemn white supremacists the way I want you to then you are supporting them.
Neither I nor anyone on this board has taken a neutral position on what has happened in Charlottesville. I and even our President have condemned it loudly and clearly. The fact that you accuse me of this continues to show you hyper emotional state. It is also called bearing a false witness and it is a sin.
No false witness: those who condemn those who are against fascism are giving oxygen to the fascists. Perfectly logical as well by the way.
