As there should be. But my argument is also that there's more than two groupings, but three:

1. This is hard and awful and important educationally, so I do as a historian an activist (i.e., like what [livejournal.com profile] azn_jack_fiend describes above).

2. "Someone has to play the bad guys," where the people involved are not overly bigoted and are trying to justify their fascination, but are not always as sensitive as they should be to people who are affected by this (i.e., wearing their fucking Nazi uniforms to the bar at a con).

3. The dirtbag from Ohio and his buddies.
