To split hairs, Nazi is still incorrect because Nazi was a specific political party/regime in Germany. That political ideology doesn't actually reflect any of the people we call Nazis beyond the racist/white supremacist part. Neo-Nazi works, as does just white supremacist, but these people are by definition not Nazis.

The political ideology absolutely does reflect that. Especially in the instance of the groups that explicitly identify themselves as Nazis and use Nazi iconography. Their political ideology of those people is Naziism. Their organization, you could say, is not officially Nazi. It is true that no contemporary Nazi, fascist, or white supremacist is formally connected to the original German NSDAP, which is the most specific definition possible of the word "Nazi". But it's a stupidly limited definition to insist on, especially if you're talking specifically about their ideology.

Calling them "Nazis" is completely reasonable in many cases. There are some cases where it's just straight-up inaccurate, yes. And yes, there's some value in delineating the exact definition of radical right-wing racist ideologies. If I could control what term people used, I think "fascist" would probably be a better term in most cases. But there are many cases where "Nazis" isn't objectively unreasonable, and the specific distinction that you are using to object to it just does not matter very much.

first of all neo-nazis are basing their ideology, purposefully, on the "specific regime" so yes it reflects them. they ape their symbology, their language and their beliefs.

second of all no one in germany gives a ahit about your distinction we still call neo-nazis nazis because there is literally nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade nor is it worth "splitting hairs" about, you're just muddying the discussion about those dumbfucks

Objectively wrong. Those dumb fucks are NOT German nationalists. "Basing their ideology on Nazis" - by being racist and saying they love Hitler and using swastikas, sure. NOT about anything beyond that that comprised German nationalist politics. You're just unnecessarily conflating terms in order to make sure people know that you know who the bad guy is, as though it's not already clear. They are Neo-Nazis who probably don't know shit about World War I/II era Germany, they are by definition not Nazis.

Naziism was a pan-German nationalist movement that was committed to a fairly broad vision of "Aryan" blood. If you're an American talking about "the future of the white Aryan race" and blood and loyalty and stuff like that, that fits pretty comfortably within Nazi ideology, even if it's not explicitly German. This just isn't a contradiction in the way that you think it is.

well, they obviously know something about WWII era Germany
