I don't think it had anything to do with that. During lockdown people were drawing swastikas and such in my area, and for the past few years, there have been Nazis stickers going up (even before covid).

It has been increasingly escalating to worse nazi nonsense

I'd say if it were happening during lockdown, and given the percentage of the population that were outraged and felt like they were living in an Orwellian nightmare, it makes sense they're not actual Nazism supporters, but the opposite, and were sending a message to Dan.

Bullshit and fuck off.

Some people went fucking nuts - and I mean full on clinically time cube level batshit - during covid and a cohort went deep into the air fryer. We call them cookers because they're bloody cooked. They do not reflect the general opinion and if you side with nazis to piss off an elected official YOU CAN JUST VOTE OUT you're a goddamn idiot.

There were also stickers being stuck up before then at random spots (there was one at the footbridge here in Seaford)

The nazi's were simply opportunistic and took advantage of the situation. It's just inexcusable in any regard
