But if your roommate says he isn't a thief, however he always hangs around with the local gang and continuously brings used stuff that he has no way of legally acquiring since he doesn't even have a job. I don't know man, you have to start asking questions.

Mike is not a nazi, he just goes to the nazi bar because he likes the beer.

says he isn't a thief

Well that's the entire issue, isn't it? If he says he isn't a thief, then he's a thief who clearly isn't open about it. Just like Mike isn't openly a nazi, he's just a nazi who's lying about not being one.

Mike is "more or less" openly a Nazi if he frequents the nazi bar. Don't need them to outright say heil Hitler to see what crowd they promote and attract.

By that logic the word "openly" is meaningless.

I mean, if they're entering the front door, not a hidden entry somewhere at the back, it's pretty open. Like an open secret

And yet FUTO clearly attempt to keep up a false image of being the good guys, which doesn't seem like openly being the bad guys.

Do they? I haven't seen any comments from them about it.
