    Curiosity.

    First and maybe only question is why their perspective changed, likely followed by getting a better understanding of what shaped their previous point of view…

      Is a person who has been studying neo-Nazism I can probably tell you.

      The answer is things like insecurities and hang ups that people have. For example this one person was living in an abusive home. He didn’t really feel respect ed and his stepfather was incredibly abusive.

      But then there were some people that actually paid attention to him and cared about what he had to say. He felt a connection and joined a neo-Nazi group. He left at some point because the book is about a former neo-Nazi but yeah.

      It was easy for him to hate minorities because he already hated the world. The world that wasn’t kind to him.

      He was convinced by these neo-Nazis that the reason why his father is a drunk and alcoholic and why his life is so s*** is because of the Jews. Yep. somehow the Jews are able to do that.

      And he fell for it too because he was only 14 years old.
