Neo-Nazis Are on the March Across America
Summary
Neo-Nazi demonstrations in the U.S. are surging, with 34 rallies reported in 2024 across 16 states, up from 4 in 2021.
Groups like Blood Tribe and Hate Club 1488 increasingly use Nazi imagery and target immigrants, shifting from prior focus on drag shows and Pride events.
These extremists exploit Trump-era rhetoric and GOP anti-immigrant campaigns to normalize their ideas and recruit.
Ohio and Tennessee have become hotspots, with groups holding armed rallies and stoking fear in liberal cities.
Experts warn this rising visibility risks mainstreaming hate and escalating domestic terror threats.

Remember kids, it’s not immoral to punch a nazi.
Frankly at this point it's a moral necessity
Always has been fam.
And to the older kids in the crowd, don't forget to rebuild your nazi punching arm if you thought it was safe to retire it
Do I have to punch them? My grandfather used a Garand.
Ooh, then he got the satisfying little ping sound at the end of the clips!
There were no two sides of the same coin with nazis. They were objectively terrible.
History is written by winners. However, even with the most controversial groups you’ll often find some ‘nobel’ initial intention. For the nazis theres none.
The South never let that stop them. They're still lying about states rights, and Southern Revisionism.
The Civil War didn’t really end, it just went cold. They immediately started writing revisionist history and trying to control the narrative. What’s really fascinating is the rapid transition in how African American men started being depicted in media - before, happy go lucky “Sambos,” after, savage rapists. The dismantling of social services in the south is largely to prevent black folks from accessing them. Slavery never really ended - the last person enslaved without being convicted of a crime was freed during World War 2.
*noble*
It would be a real shame if someone accidentally dumped neon magenta pink food dye on them.
You're too kind
(Subtle enough?)
It's good when we do it. It's bad when fascists do it.
Nah, nazis depend on the appearance of strength, publicly humiliating them is very effective.
Which is why I wrote food dye. The point is to stain them with a scarlet letter, not blind or kill them.
If there’s one thing these assholes cannot stand, it’s being made fun of. They are desperate to be taken seriously.
Just ask Mel Brooks if you don’t believe me.
Why not march in more diverse areas? Compton, Durham, Brooklyn, Detroit, Atlanta; spice it up nazis!
Because reactionaries are inherently cowards— it's the entire reason behind their worldview.
Afraid of society changing, so their bigotry isn't as acceptable. Afraid of minorities being more competent than them and outcompeting them. Afraid of being ostracized for their beliefs. Afraid of using the apparatus of the state to improve people's lives. Afraid of fake conspiracies and false-flags. Afraid of immigrants. Afraid of anything different and non-conforming. Afraid of non-compliance, afraid of checks-and-balances, afraid of the press, and of the freedoms that others enjoy. Afraid of alternate religions and worldviews, afraid of being laughed at by women. Afraid of other people's self-determination and agency.
And they're terrified of progress.
My point is we should kick the shit out off them like the klan. Force those lil bitches back into the closets. Make them scared they will found out if god is real or not.
The correct amount of Nazi rallies is 0
The brownshirts are signaling their ascendance after a fascist got elected? I feel like I've heard this one before.
One of the many excellent ways of handling this situation and one much less likely to get you arrested:

That's fantastic. I can't play a tuba but I can scat on a megaphone.
I think the best part is that you don't really need to be able to play it for it to work. Just drown them out with garbage.
Yes, I'm aware this place is a cesspool of greed and bigotry.
No shit Sherlock. They just won the election.
You know what's pathetic? Americans being Nazis. At least us Europeans know what's up. You know, the ones living in a country attacked by the Nazis. It's absolutely Pathetic. At least make your own racist club instead of this beta group wannabe mentality.
When does the nazi punching start?
Soon as those fuckheads show up.
It's frustrating that people forget you can shoot at any American wearing a Swastika as part of the War Crimes Act.
Before 2 years ago, I didn't hear about this much but now it is common.
I would say the ramp-up started in 2016. No idea why though...

Shiver me timbers. Who cares.
Read the room. We all care except for dumbasses who think that their neck won't be eventually on the chopping block.
