I honestly did not expect someone to randomly call me a N*zi sympathizer when they found out I liked AOT. I am so confused. 

Ugh, this again.  These people are insane.  I’ve begun to realize that most of the people that think crap like this have never even watched or read AoT all the way through.  Either that, or they’re so easily influenced by other people’s baseless accusations that they ignore the loud and clear themes and messages within AoT.  It’s like they get some kind of boost to their sense of moral superiority because they think they have some special insight into AoT that no one else has, and they love to lord it over the ignorant masses, lol.  I think the whole thing came from some lame ass article written on IGN a few years ago about AoT secretly being fascist propaganda, and all the idiots have been running with it ever since.  They accuse anyone who likes AoT of not being able to think for themselves, which is ironic, because it seems to me their entire view point of the manga was formed by a third party, just some idiot with no real insight or connection to Isayama, writing a meaningless article which is nothing but pure speculation and far fetched inference.

Anyone with two working brain cells can see that AoT is anti-prejudice, anti-war, anti generational guilt.  These themes are the very foundation of the story.  It’s literally the opposite of fascist propaganda or Nazi sympathizing. 

Yeah, haha. This is why I can’t stand bad journalism. Bad ideas in media spread like wildfire and suddenly thousands of people just judge things without looking into them first. AOT is so against racial prejudice in every form, I agree. The message could not be more clear.

I feel like someone who believed you were a Nazi sympathizer for liking AOT would freak out if they found out one of your favorite movies of all time was Schindler’s List, which it is for me. I mean, that’s the logic they’re going by, so….
