Abravnel's pictures show two bearded men wearing sunglasses and three other men wearing face coverings on board the boat. One of the men on board appeared to be holding an image of Mike Lindell, CEO of the My Pillow company. Lindell, who is a well-known Trump supporter, recently hit back against claims that his product pricing was inadvertently linked to neo-Nazi propaganda.

Nazis supporting Trump is PROOF that only REAL Jews Support Trump!

[-] npz@lemm.ee 138 points 2 days ago

Newsweek was unable to independently verify at the time of publication whether the people on the boat were from the antifa movement.

Oh, fuck off. I'm unable to independently verify whether the people on the boat were Newsweek employees.

So they did publish the name of a Neo-Nazi identified on the boat with the Nazi flags, who's the founder of a Neo-Nazi group.

But going as far as to say these known Neo-Nazis are not antifa would be too far.

Cause Neo-Nazis are so often also antifascist...

[-] ATDA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

This known neonazi did a thing, unable to figure out if it's antifa or not. Lolwhut

[-] Moops@fedia.io 83 points 2 days ago

Strange how they don't have an issue with masks now.

[-] Jagothaciv@kbin.earth 77 points 2 days ago

A vote for Trump is a vote for Nazis. Always has been but now they’re showing faces so you know its true.

[-] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

Now? Since day one they've been waving the flags that their grandfathers took from fascists when they kill them and liberated France and then said "I'm saying what we're all thinking, the sheeple are just too afraid to speak their minds!"

Trump was a laughing stock day one, he was scary when he gained ground, and now people think it's awesome to be a Nazi and not be worried about someone clocking them in the face like they deserve.

The mask has been slipping since 2008 for Republicans, 2016 is when they painted their face to show dogwhistles, 2020 is when they just started waving the flag of their true ideology, "Fascism is awesome for me, actually."

How is it that Trump followers are pro Nazis and pro Israel at the same time? Or is it because Israel is starting to follow Nazis' footsteps?

[-] blackbelt352@lemmy.world 44 points 2 days ago

So at the end of the day it's Dominionism amd The Book of Revalations. It's the idea that once the Jews take control of the holy land the apocalyptic prophesies in the Book of Revelations will be set into motion and God will come down from heaven and separate the 144,000 good holy people from the sinners who didn't belive in God and take them into heaven, probably rapture style.

Being Pro Israel and a conservative isn't really about caring about the history of prejudice the Jewish people have faced throughout much of history, it's about using the Jewish people as a pawn in fulfilling a ~2000 year old prophesy.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 19 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yuuuup.

I find it equal parts infuriating and hilarious... These motherfuckers want to pull some "Jesus hates this one trick!" type shit to trick their lord into appearing sooner than would "naturally" happen and they don't think the all knowing all powerful God wouldn't realize they had millions of people killed purposely for this? Their meddling and enabling is what would have that region in the state of war "required" for Armageddon...

Like what?

[-] thesporkeffect@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I believe in their view, it's presented as 'god can't come back until conditions are right, don't keep him waiting'

The answer to why god needs their help when he's all powerful is some mumbling about tests of faith and the unknowable nature of the divine

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

Also, killing millions in his name? Old testament God is probably fully erect watching it.

Fun fact: Kelsey Grammar (Frasier) is a proud Trump supporter and Christian who also publicly supported Roseanne Barr after she was fired from her show's reboot for tweeting that one of Obama's advisers was what happened when the "Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes had a baby".

[-] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Well in some cases that's complicated. Dominionists will support anyone that either will bring in the end times or the destruction of Israel because that's part of their end time beliefs. They also support anyone that claims to be Christian. Supporting Israel until it is destroyed is all part of their convoluted fantasy life.

[-] Commiunism@lemmy.wtf 19 points 2 days ago

It's a place created as a home for jews pretty much by antisemites, with the main idea being "we're okay with jews but only if they're not in our country".

There's a lot of fascinating history about the creation of Israel by antisemites that you can find, but the gist is that zionism and antisemitism often go hand in hand, and it seems this has not really changed.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Some of it is rooted in xtian zionism, and it's not because they have any special regard for Jews other than as pawns for their dopey eschatological notions. They just think the Jews have to be in Israel to fulfill prophecies that involve a magical Jewish carpenter coming back (and killing most of the Jews, by the way).

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 21 points 2 days ago

They're different subgroups

[-] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

there is that, but I think also many republicans have a weird cognitive dissonance where they're antisemitic in general, but still very pro-israel/zionist because of fundamental christianity, and/or they are even more islamaphobic than antisemitic.

Nazis love the idea of a single state for each group of people. They love it as a destination for deportations fulfilling their short-term bigoted plans.

Of course their long-term bigoted plans are invasion, stealing resources, and mass murder.

They wrote: "I was in the parade today. Just like on J6 [January 6], those are not Trump supporters. They were antifa scumbag imposters and were treated accordingly as you'll see in the video." Antifa is a term for far-left groups that resist facists and neo-Nazis.

LOL, they are still going with this BS for J6? Why would dementia donnie pardon a bunch of "antifa", then?

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

Antifa is a term for far-left groups

Antifa is a term for the monsters under conservatives' beds.

[-] Vieric@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago

They love Neo-Nazis. What they don't love is when they get too loud or conspicuous, because it costs them PR points (sometimes). This is the only reason the right wing will ever so much as give lip service to thinking these people might be anything less than "very fine people".

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 34 points 2 days ago

Yeah, all our products cost 14.88 but that's just a coincidence.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 27 points 2 days ago

It is amazing how open they show their colors even before the election. Maybe, just maybe some potential voters read this as a warning sign.

[-] tiefling 8 points 2 days ago

Unfortunately this is more likely to cement his existing support

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 27 points 2 days ago

Why? Are Confederate flags too passé for them now?

[-] Xeroxchasechase@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

No, they just ferl that they don't have to hide their identity anymore

[-] ours@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

No need for dog whistles anymore, they've moved on to airhornes.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 19 points 2 days ago

Props to the guy that soaked them. Even fascists have some standards.

[-] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 20 points 2 days ago

Not because they disagree with them, but because they accused them of being Antifa plants to make them look bad.

the boat has to have a registration usually, why not use that?

[-] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago

Someone I know who isn't me wants to know how illegal it is to go and spray paint a swastika on Trump signs or the houses/driveways with a Trump sign.

He says it would be a good idea to remind everyone of who these people are and it would be visible for a bit longer.

Are the Swastika flags black because they are "dark MAGA" like Elon? /s

Ok, I was mad until I read this and then I was full of chuckles. What a dumbass stunt and I love that this former-and-soon-to-return crackhead was inadvertently brought into the conversation.

Also, show your faces, nazi fucks. If you’re so proud, why are you hiding?

[-] aramis87@fedia.io 9 points 2 days ago

If you’re so proud

Do you really expect consistent thinking from a bunch of neo-Nazis who named themselves after a song from Disney's Aladdin?
