There are posters here who blame Obama and BLM for these Neo Nazi's.
The alt right is the logical result of the breakdown of democracy and the concentration of wealth. There is much in the alt right that goes back to the very beginnings of this country. It was suppressed for awhile, but now it's all starting to come back because 30 years of mostly bipartisan class warfare from wealthy elites can no longer be tolerated. But the alt right is a manipulation of those emotions, not a genuine response to them. You don't got security in your life, you feel it slipping away? Blame the illegals and the blacks. In the end that might give disaffected whites a sense of power, but it's not going to make them any richer. They'll still have no say in the big policy matters.
they called me a nazi so i had no choice but to become a nazi! this argument makes sense! i'm normal!!!!

My theory is when there are no problems in the(ir) world people begin to create problems. That's also why I don't ever see a true utopia happening since people will create an invisible boogeyman to get offend by.
It obviously didn't "create" them, but it is part of what's making them so vocal.
Also, it's really not that big of a thing. News channels are blowing it up for ratings and CE is eating it up. Same as always.
I'm not going to blame SJWs for their racism, no
The alt-right is in retaliation to SJW/Regressive rhetoric about culture appropriation, wage gap, sexism in video games, mansplaining, white guilt, manspreading, ect... Do Nazis and the alt-right share some of the same interests and goals? Sure they do. Nazis are not the alt-right, however.

About as much as racism created SJWs.
The influx of non-intellectuals into the college environment due to pressure from the economy created SJWs. In other words, weak minded people who otherwise would never have gone to college because they have no desire to seek knowledge, only to compulsively regurgitate information because that's what gave them success.
There's an increasing culture of extremes today. You can't have nuanced opinions like "social progressives are a bit heavy-handed in expressing their views, but the core of what they're saying is true". If someone doesn't agree with them entirely, they decide to take the opposite view to its logical extreme, because if racism is bad, that means the SJWs are right, and they can't allow the "other team" to "win".
OP: "are victims responsible for literal Nazi scum trying to murder them?"
And there's people bound to say yes on this board
