1) Third-world leftists can make their own decisions regarding these things. My concern is that First-world leftists should at least pause and reflect when Nazis start wearing palestinian scarves and Che Guevara t-shirts. There is literally no substantial difference between the national liberation rhetoric of the statist Left and the fascist Right.

2) I don't know what definition of marginal you are using. The NPD has a fraction in the state parliament of Saxony. The civil society in large parts of Eastern Germany is effectively under Nazi hegemony.
