This is different than any group having the potential to have Nazis and you know it.
When burzum one of the most well known black metal bands has a Nazi as its sole musician and its just accepted along with many other bands having straight up self admitted Nazis there is a fucking nazi problem. Most genres of music are not like this. This is like saying oh black metal isn't anti-Christian every group of people has christian haters there are only a few church burnings no big deal.
The first wave of black metal didn't have as much Nazis as the 2nd wave the Nazis infiltrated
black metal is not inherently nazi but it does have a lot of Nazis in it black metal still has a nazi problem.
Nazis do steal cultures they have been doing it since the beginning the swastica wasn't originally a symbol of hate the Nazis took it
Someone pointed out to me that I'm taking the words steal, infiltrate and take over too literally, which I was. I understand now that the point of the op is not to claim that there is a coordinated conspiracy to steal music genres and claim them for themselves, but to be mindful of the more risky genres (if we take music genres as an example). I thought it meant black metal was at risk to be taken over which I thought was absurd.
I think swastica is a terrible example for that.
Nice self-reflection! Good job!
