In any case, you are using Fox News tactics like when they tried to smear Bernie Sanders as a whole for having a crazy supporter who shot up a baseball game. A few bad apples out there does not speak to a movement.
You know what this is reminding me of? James Allsup talking about how there were only a few Swastika flags when he was at the Charlottesville Unite the Right rally.
And even assuming that every single instance of a swastika flag at the protest was being used specifically to call Trudeau Nazis, (and I should point out that the anti-vaxx movement has been using a LOT of imagery comparing themselves to Jews in the Holocaust lately), that's got its own serious problems. For one thing, it's not like the people who ended up im Lager could have just avoided their situation by getting a free vaccine (or series thereof) that would have spared them from the worst effects of the disease. And before you ask about the sterilisation program, I'm fairly certain even many of those people they sterilised were still sent to the camps anyway if they weren't already dead.
