    Mind you, the next paragraph makes it clear that the claim of accident is a lie

    draft versions of the article suggest that, at the very least, members of the Salient were aware that the article’s contents invoked Nazi ideology.

    Which is exactly what Nazis do — treat language as a tool for manipulation, not a means of communication.

      The piece is just rife with the Nazi shit the whole org was up to, but its explictly clear that editor is hip deep in it.

      Very good piece from the student journalists.
