Everywhere I go on Youtube there are non-stop attacks on Jews, saying they are responsible for everything, that they are practicing white genocide through diversity, that they control the media, ect. People deny the holocaust but in the same breath use generalized attacks against groups (Jews, Muslims, Arabs) that seem to be almost justifying the idea of genocide. Given the backlash against immigration policies in Europe and the U.S., is there a serious possibly of white fascism rising again in the next century?

Not in their current form. You will, however, continue to see elements of their beliefs work their way into fringe movements on both the far right and the far left.

The reason that anti-Semitism is so prevalent everywhere in the world is the same reason that it's fundamentally weak.  Anti-Semitism is a product of the deluded minds of stupid, weak little men.  A modern, cosmopolitan society exposes and ridicules those sorts of beliefs.

I honestly think a lot of those idiots are just trolls looking for a reaction.

No. It will, however, continue to be used as a smear to silence people with socially objectionable beliefs.

David Duke says his audience is growing pretty quickly, even in places like South America.

David Duke is also insane and tried to install a white supremacist government in a black-majority island in the Caribbean with 8 of his henchmen. EDIT: Wait no, I think that was the founder of Stormfront who did the "Bayou of Pigs".

But I voted yes, because while it won't be a problem in the US, it may be a problem in corners of Europe like Hungary (Jobbik), Greece (Golden Dawn), and the Ukraine (ultra-nationalists like the Azov Battalion, as well as the pro-Russian separatists).

The claims of David Duke should be taken with a grain of salt. The guy is a laughing stock even among the modern 'radical right'.

Depends on how the economic crises of this century are resolved. Fascism is a response to the left, so if you don't have anything approximating the victory of the Bolsheviks in this century, I don't think you'll see a far-right group attain power anywhere. Perhaps the greatest threat of neo-Nazi resurgence is in Greece, in the form of Golden Dawn, especially given the total inability of Syriza to do much of anything to address the crisis.

No. However, white nationalism could depending on whether it can find support among a large enough sub-set of conservatives who associate varied social out-groups with unpleasant things. Its proponents aren't totally off-mark when they insist that a lot of people agree with their sentiments but just do not vocalize them or give them an -ism to call it by due to how much pressure society now places on everyone not to seem prejudiced and discriminatory.

Obviously, but I thought the OP was referring specifically to the Neo-Nazi variety.

Only so long as class society, which produces it and uses it to divide the public into easily exploitable groups, exists.

I'm gonna say yes, in a qualified sense.  the neoliberals won't cruise thoughout the century, the population will be pissed and the pseudofascist right is one possible alternative to neoliberalism - probably more possible than a left answer.

Fascism doesn't mean "a right-wing government I don't like".
