The world really looks again like 1920 where Nazism is starting to infest humanity once again. Hitler joined the Nazi party in 1919, but he didn't founded it, they were active before that under a similar name, and there were already Anti-Semitic groups actively or semi-actively persecuting Jews by that time. Unfortunately, the world looks very similar to this period once again.
I have done a scientific study measuring the rise of Anti-Semitism
Part 1 - Google Searches
Using Google Trends, I have analyzed Nazi keywords, and found significant results in them. First of all, the keywords can be double-edged meaning that both Nazis and anti-Nazis could use them, so it becomes unclear if Nazis are rising or the opposition to it, but this could work both ways, since there is no opposition unless there is an enemy. So I assume the opposition to Nazis is rising because they are becoming more numerous, furthermore certain keywords that I have observed are specifically used by Neo-Nazis.
- Holocaust & Holocaust Denial related keywords: 71.50% correlation
- Nazism related searches have correlated with Holocaust & Holocaust Denial: 59.57% and 53.63%
Meaning that most people were not Nazis but were actually trying to learn about the Nazi atrocities, however the discrepancy between the correlations suggests that the difference were actual Denialists. So that leaves us with a 11.93-17.87% of potential Nazis. But these are not good datapoints, since it could have double meaning, so I looked further.
- I correlated these points individually with Neo-Nazi website keywords: 34.69% correlation (Holocaust Denial highest)
- I correlated these points with Neo-Nazi keywords: 26.26% correlation (Holocaust Denial highest)
- I correlated these points with Nazi conspiracy propaganda keywords: 9.41% correlation (Nazism) , 12.29% (Holocaust Denial)
- Correlated "Mein Kampf" with the basic keywords: 23.18% (Holocaust)
Now this means that its somewhere roughly around 2.26%-6.19% of Nazi searchers are actual Anti-Semite Nazis. But it's still vague so let's look further.
Correlating the actual Nazi keywords with specific Nazi propaganda/symbolism:
- 34.69% was the highest correlation, and it's for Holocaust Denialists.
So it means that the people specifically looking for Nazi propaganda, were Holocaust Denialists by 34.69%. The top keyword was "Stormer" which is a popular Nazi symbolism, and it refers to multiple Nazi organizations, let's look what were the related topics:
Interesting, I knew that the latest elections have energized some Nazi groups, but now it's undeniable. And the number of "Stormer" Nazis is only growing:
Now looking at the Holocaust Denialists of whom at least 34.69% were actual Denialists, while the others are just probably coming from the latest movie, however that 35% is pretty significant.
So as you can see the UK is very ahead, probably due to Brexit and immigrant racism sentiments, trying to scapegoat people.
In other statistics, the number was also growing, although those keywords were english specific, so I could not know where they come from, but they were growing, this is very alarming.
Part 2 - Hatred against Israel
The anti-Israel sentiment is coming from France, Canada,South Africa, Sweden, UK and Italy where I have found several university speeches and events and keywords that link to hatred against Israel, not just from muslim communities but also leftist talks & activists.
Looks like France has been taken over by muslims, and radical leftist thoughts and now Anti-Semitic parties are gaining popularity. The data shows predominant anti-Israel sentiment coming from France.
Now this data is constant, but there have been some spikes at some key events especially at last December's elections.
Part 3 - Nazis on Youtube
Now there are still doubts about the validity of this research, so I have looked into concrete data about Nazis on Youtube. There are many Youtube videos praising Hitler and giving tribute to him, and the comment sections are filled with brainwashed Nazi lovers and Anti-Semites. You can't get more Nazi than that, so I assume most watchers of those, and certainly subscribers, are definitely Nazis. This data definitely proves my greatest fear, that indeed, the Nazis are coming back.
Now the views can only go up, and many could be bots, but the subscribers can go down too, and they are human. So let's look at the subscribers of each popular Nazi video's author:
Tribute to Adolf Hitler - 463,202 views - by thenari21- Views ▲ 8.4%
Adolf Hitler - Tribute To 'Mein Führer' HD|HQ - 71,005 views - by National Socialism- Views ▲ 13.6%Adolf Hitler - speech (English Subtitles). - 4,904,154 views - by AWGZWEI- Views ▲ 33.6%Hitler Speeches with accurate English subtitles - 7,578,878 views - by Stone Unturner- Views ▲ 29.7%Adolf Hitler's Last Speech - 469,035 views - by Alek Brager- Views ▲ 54.4%GERMAN GENERALS AND COMMANDERS -3,094,059 views- by ketboga1299- Views ▲ 45.1%German Army Hell March - 1,885,994 views- by Das Reich- Views ▲ 29.2%Wehrmacht - Erika -2,701,808 views - by waffen damones- Views ▲44.4%Waffen SS and the Wehrmacht Das Deutschlandlied - Germany's National Anthem - 2,705,475 views - by Mike Valenzuela- Views ▲36.4%Adolf Hitler - Rare Moments in Colour - 711,186 views - by Adolf Hitler- Views ▲ 12.5%Hitler Speaks About the Jews -1,160,639 views -by st1ckycheese- Views ▲44.8%Why did Adolf Hitler hate Jews - 502,060 views - by TheMrwolf79- Views ▲29.3%Adolf Hitler The Man of Honor - 127,395 views -by HistoryTruths- Views ▲ 12.8%
And many many more, seems like the Hitler fans are never ending, mostly new anonymous accounts shitposting fan videos about Hitler spreading lies, propaganda and Anti-Semitism.
Goddamnit It almost made me sick going through all these Nazi shit videos, especially the last one, that put some emotional music in the background while showing clips of Hitler, as if he were some sad victim of this. I can't believe how many mentally ill people are out there still glorifying Hitler.
Now not all of the uploaders were Nazis, but you bet most of the viewers of the videos were Nazis, and all views were going up relative to past month, so the number of Nazis are increasing by an accelerated pace.
This is definitive proof that we are in serious shit, this is serious problem, the Nazis are coming back!
26,370,000 Nazis just based on these Videos.
And there are sadly many many many many more videos like these but with small views, probably tens of thousands of more, ranging from thousands of views up to the millions, we could be looking at possibly 1 billion possible Nazi sympatizers now.
Not all viewers are Nazis, and there may be duplicate views, but the mere fact that in 2017 we still find 26 million potential Nazis is pretty alarming, and their number is only rising.
