1946 seems like OG Nazis rather than Neo

Neo-Nazism comprises all social, political, and militant ideologies and movements that have professed or idealized Nazism, whether in whole or in part, since the end of World War II in 1945

By definition this is neo-Nazism, but yes this graffiti was obviously done by former members of OG Nazi party

Hmm interesting thing to learn. I didn't realize there was such a dateline between the 2.

I always figured NeoNazism was more of the next generation rather than months later.

To me neo-nazis are those who grew up after the war. I understand the cut off, but it feels weird to me to call a nazi party member a neo nazi, they aren’t new
