What's so hard about denouncing Nazis?

We are thrilled to speak with Linda Tirado once again on Positively Revolting.  Linda's analysis of current events is always insightful. During and after Charlottesville Linda's tweets have been clear -- there is no room for equivocation or mincing words.  Nazis must be denounced and stopped.  How do we reach out to poor white youth who are being recruited into white supremacist groups?  What do we say to liberals who want to find a way to de-escalate without calling out the harm done by hate groups?  How do you answer the messed up and false equivalancy of the violence perpetrated by white supremacists and Nazis, to the acts of resistance by Antifa and other groups protecting people of color and other marginalized communities?
