Wellll... I mean I gave a list of things to watch for in a collective group. If a collective group is doing all these things, on camera, proudly... you're probably safe calling them Neo-Nazis and "Nazi" for short.
While the Klan has a long and inglorious tradition, it merges seamlessly with the pro-Nazi elements of the US in world war 2, for the most part. And Nazis are what folks had in mind when they say, "Anti-semite".
So I'm curios if YOU were ever confused. Or if this is for the rhetorical masses (who by and large don't seem too confused once they see a picture, that I can discern).

If a collective group is doing any of the other things you've mentioned, I'd say they're pretty definitely a Nazi.

I don't think that's accurate. Overlap, yes. I'm not sure what muddying the water between different hate groups achieves.
> Nazis are what folks had in mind
> when they say, "Anti-semite"
I don't think that's even slightly accurate. Anti-semitism is a (terrible) feature of many many ideologies, from ISIS to mediaeval Iberian Catholicism, to people who believe that we're all controlled by shape-shifting masonic lizard aliens.

Yes. Is David Duke a Nazi? Milo Ywhatever-his-name-is? Gamergate people? The_Donald?
Duke acts in accordance with most of their principles, so yes.
> Milo Ywhatever-his-name-is?
He hangs out with some self-proclaimed Nazis, but we've yet to see him walking in a march waving the flag.
> Gamergate people?
I actually think most are sexist. I see plenty of post-gaters resisting Trump and decrying the violence we're discussing.
> The_Donald
The reddit? Or DJT himself? For the reddit, I don't even know what it is. It's like one of those lego advertisement cartoons that doesn't have to make sense so long as we all agree we should buy Legos.
As for DJT himself? I would have said no before last week, but that last press conference really left me wondering.
