No, they don't follow the same principals. I've known many muslims who deride ISIS, because they believe that the faith is meant to be one of peace, not war.
I'm not saying ALL muslims, I'm saying any that do believe the same core principles. Do you think that any Muslim who believes things like western society is evil and violence in adherence to the faith is ok should be considered and treated as members of ISIS?

I don't know much about Antifa as a group, I've always seen them as a sort of grassroots youth movement that are controlled by a small group of stupid retards who can't seem to understand the qualities of subtlety. Liberals in general don't take to the streets and cause civil disturbances. So no, they are separate.Neo Nazis, and Nazis in general for that matter, are categorized almost overwhelmingly by their extreme violent action, and their bigoted views. This man committed violent actions, and has a bias for white supremacy. Him punching down dreadlock girl was not the only instance of violence from this guy.
See now you're talking about actions and activism not simply sharing/supporting the same basic ideology, that's different than what you said before. I fully agree that someone who actively participates in Nazism is a Nazi, but simply agreeing with them on a few issues(even if the issues are abhorrent) and being friends with a few isn't enough to actually classify them as Nazis. I know it might seem like a silly distinction to make but I believe it's an important one. Regardless of their shared propensity for villainous behavior after all, the Joker is not the Riddler and it's not right to use the Joker's actions as a means to make the Riddler seem worse or vice versa.
