""Neo - Nazi" with groups such as the Banderites, when they are just "NAZIS.""

Yes, they are really the O.G. flavour of Nazi - they still believe in Hitler's original message, and their own sense of nationalism is inextricably tied up with Hitler's National Socialism. That is why they keep celebrating the old Nazi soldiers, the SS Grenadiers. Those Nazis were for the Banderites, "liberation fighters". Fo the Banderites, wearing the thunderbolts of the SS, the Wolfsangel or the Sonnenrand is simply to don the trappings and regalia of your historic heroes.

It would be like an American wearing a three-cornered hat or other remnants of the Colonial Army of 1776.

It is, in a way, all very sad - that there is this people, this Austrian-Ruthynian-Galician tribe, that sees its own history - and indeed its own destiny - so firmly and everlastingly tied up with that of Hitler's Nazis.
