All members of the NSA admire Hitler and Nazi Germany. However, on the surface, they only say that Taiwan should be strong. On the surface, they do not engage in racism or antisemitism. But in fact, they do hold these ideas. It is very dangerous to choose this political path. [2]

Angelica Oung of the Taipei Times noted that Chao had regularly posted photos of himself in Nazi cosplay on the NSA's website when it was still online, while Yue had made several posts reminiscent of Nazi rhetoric. [3] For example, Yue called for harsher immigration restrictions, the criminalization of interracial marriage, and the killing of infants born to migrant workers. [3] Emile Sheng, a municipal official in Taipei, commented on the NSA's backtracking, saying: "People here do not really understand what Nazism is. They are not really racist or antisemitic. They do not even know what it means." [6]

Membership

The NSA had 20 dues-paying members in March 2007, when it attempted to register as a non-governmental organization. [6] [8] The registration was denied because the NSA did not have enough adult members. In this regard, Chao commented, "We have too many high school and middle school students and not enough adults." [3]

Its website, which functioned primarily as an online forum, had more than 760 registered accounts prior to its exposure in major media; the NSA claimed that the number rose to over 1,400 afterwards. [5] Taiwanese nationalist politician Yang Chih-yuan registered an account on the forum in late 2006, when he was in middle school. [9]
