Yeah dawg they're the same thing.
i suspect that the stereotype of the german ww2 nazi with swatiskas and antisemitism is the western world's definition of nazi and that's allowing for new american, french, german, italian, ukranian, isreali, etc. nazis to take root because they don't match that stereotype.
The "Heh, but I'm not a member of the national socialist party in Germany from 1940-1945" that you hear from teenage nazis online is basically also the US cultural norm
pretty much; it's allowing for people to become nazis without realizing that they're becoming nazis simply because they're not antisemitic.
It's basically even the same flag with a color and ethno-symbol swap
