Yes, I have friends who are involved in this sort of thing and it's nothing like you describe. It's almost like you want to paint the whole thing with a broadbrush to try and make their criticisms irrelevent.

There are always out-liners. In the same spirit I am sure that you can find people self-identifying as non-racist fascists.

Their criticisms of what? Of the material realm? I do not think that trash-cans harmed me yet so I see no reason to destroy them. Or do you mean their criticism of capitalism/the current system/fascism/racism/etc? If so I agree with them.
