I do think the significance of the alt-right has been exaggerated, but in that case it is because they've been actively courted, in some cases recruited, by the now-sitting President of the United States of America, even as individuals aligned (ideologically, if not always by self-identification) with the movement have carried out several high-profile acts of domestic terrorism. Even if some news sources have over-reacted to what is still a fringe movement, there is legitimate cause for concern. The same can't realistically be said of Antifa, which is in practice a scattered subculture of angry punk kids.Unlike the alt-right, of course.
You're talking as if Rwanda at the time of the genocide was a normal, peaceful, multicultural society, but that's really not the case. The Hutu-dominated military had ruled the country with an iron-fist for twenty years, and was in the process of a losing a civil war against Tutsi rebels. The "little nudge" you speak of was the assassination of the Hutu-supremacist dictator, the day before the genocide began. The United States, as bad as things are, isn't at anything like that stage of political degeneration.Oh, I know about Rwanda. It just goes to show that most people, like werewolves, can morph into murderous monsters very easily if given a little nudge.
