I think the main difference is the ideology of Black Lives Matter was to highlight the disproportionate shooting of black people by police. People in the group have done the things you state but that's never been supported by the wider group, it's not a goal of the group, it's not ordered by the group.
White Supremacy and the continuing the beliefs of the German Nazis is what these people are behind, they wove their flags and quoted their slogans.
You're taking the very worst of these groups and then comparing them to what is mainstream Nazi opinion.
Also, wider point, I don't think it's helpful to think of this is a right/left thing. It's a society vs Nazi thing. I don't think 'people on the right' should have to speak about these people.
We're in danger of having used the word Nazi so much we forget who we're actually talking about.

I really don't get why people are talking about other groups so much on this thread.
Nazi supremacists walking round with Swastikas shouting death to the Jews are an offence to pretty much everyone left or right. Attacking them is not conceding points to the left.
