Don't kill the messenger.

"I get the sense that this article is trying to say that the PSC is supported by Nazis or Nazi sympathizers, which is pretty fucked up."

Um...but it's true. A leading member of the PSC is a Nazi sympathizer. The proof is right up there.

"this isn't like the Tea Party or the GOP because the PSC isn't systematically in support of this kind of behavior in the way Republicans are"

Republicans are systematically in favour of Holocaust denial?

At least one division is chaired by a Nazi though. That's pretty substantial, and enough to raise questions about the organization as a whole, isn't it?

So why is it "systematic" in Bachmann's case, but not in this guy's case?

How is this group organized? What level of autonomy do the local chapters have? How are chairs for the chapters selected? Is there much in the way of a national staff or is most of the work done within the local chapters?

Looking at the branch lists, it looks like there a lot of individual chapters. London alone has 11 chapters, and there are 30+ other chapters throughout the UK. How much power within the organization does any one branch chair have?

He was important enough to chair a PSC event that featured an MP.

[redstar826]

how are chairs selected for those events though? Is it done by committee? Or do they just ask the various branches for volunteers? Hell, I've chaired a forum that included a prominent local politician, and at that time I wasn't even an officer of the group sponsoring the event. They just needed someone and I was free that day. Chairing a single panel at a convention really doesn't make you an important person.
