Be like Captain America
'Tennessee Nazis.... I HATE Tennessee Nazis.'
The Tennessee chapter is rumored to be predominantly into children which is why they hide their faces
Of course they were wearing masks. If they sincerely thought their beliefs were in the right, they wouldn't care if people knew who they were. They would proudly show themselves and stand behind those beliefs publicly.
Cowards.
Not defending them, but they can certainly think they are in the right and realize that most of society violently disagrees with them. I'd say they were smart to wear masks to avoid repercussions from their vile, awful, hateful behavior.
I hope that if their names come out that they lose their jobs, get their asses kicked, get disowned by family and friends, and get run out of town. They know that many people feel the same as I do so, even if they really believe the filth they represent, they are probably scared to show their faces.
Free speech absolutism goes way too far.
Nazis marching is an implicit threat of violence and should be treated as such.
When free speech is implicit denouncement of equality it’s not free. It’s cancer and should be treated as such.
Shoot them? I mean you have guns over there right, so for fuck sake use them at least once for a good reason.
Exactly. Americans are always going on about how they need guns to defend themselves from tyranny.
You have tyranny marching on your streets. Just go and shoot them with your guns. What’s the issue?
Yeah, I don't know if free speech covers this.
We (Allies) never made peace with the Nazis. We crushed their military and hanged any officials that didn't eat cyanide, but there was no treaty or surrender. We didn't even let the Germans govern themselves until we could figure out who wasn't a Nazi.
I would argue that anyone who flies that flag is effectively pledging allegiance to an enemy. And like... The enemy. The guys who industrialized genocide and literally tried to take over the world.
So idk about shooting them if they're just jerking each other off in the street. But I would like to channel Aldo Raine and carve swastikas into their foreheads.
Dude come on. Plenty of officials in West Germany after the war were Nazis. We took Nazis and used them in NASA. The US loves Nazis if they serve the ruling class or are the alternative to socialism.
Good luck with that more than half our nations cops are on the fascist's side.
We tried calling in the police but strangely they were all busy with some other event.
The cops get really pissy about that for some reason. Guns for me (and my Nazi buddies) but not for thee, i guess.
Nazi scum.
I fucking hate Tennessee Nazis.
yeah. They taste much worse than even Texas Nazis.
...
i heard
Conservatism is a plague of oppression, sickness and death. It should be outlawed entirely.
We could at least take a page from modern Germany's laws and prohibit public expression of right wing ideologies. They know first-hand what happens when you don't deal with an infestation early.
People have to step up and denounce this stuff publically, openly and loudly enough everywhere. And I don't mean causing violence, attacking or assaulting anyone in any way. I mean more people should step up and just state how they do not accept this and pressure their government representatives to act and do something and say something to discourage individuals like this.
If people are silent, and don't know about it then they are just the ignorant masses.
If they are silent but know that it is happening but still say nothing ... then they are complicit, because their silence is an acceptance of movements like this.
American is slowly diving into a rabbit hole that the world already visited almost a century ago.
It's easy to deal with now and it's easy to stand up and tell everyone you don't accept this.
The longer everyone stays silent and passive, the more their chances of saying anything evaporates.
When it goes on for too long and too far .... it takes far more energy and activism to stop this ugly movement.
The last time it went too far ... it took a world war and millions of dead everywhere in order to stop it ... and even then, it wasn't stopped, it was just merely controlled and brought down to a manageable level because it never really disappeared.
Nope, sorry.
Unless you somehow think we should have stormed the beaches at Normandy with care bare plushies and hallmark chocolate assortments.
Almost zero nazis can be deradicalized by thoughts and prayers, the only solution is to beat them bloody till they're afraid to show their faces.
This is an article on a local Tennessee FOX News page. The comments on the article have some disgusting whataboutism brain rot being posted trying to distract from the fact that THERE ARE LITERAL NAZI FLAGS BEING MARCHED UNIRONICLY IN PUBLIC. Tennessee has some filth within its borders..
The infuriating part is when everyone on the Right goes on Twitter and pretends they are "feds" pretending to be Right Wing for...reasons? "Feds" was trending on Twitter as this happened, and the last time there was a fascist March, the one with the khakis.
Like I'm glad they are disowning these guys but doing it by calling them Feds is actually not saying it would be bad if it was real, seems like only a matter of time before one of these groups gets into a Waco-style shootout with police and they become martyrs for some reason.
The cops and FBI are riddled with right wing nutjobs. There's not been a Democrat to hold the position of FBI director, afaik.
Like how "antifa" did Jan 6? It's just every person who got caught and put on trial was the MAGA exception they "tricked" into the insurrection.
I miss when Nazis weren't such cowards they covered their faces. How else are we supposed to ostracize them from society.
It shouldn't be that hard.
It shouldn't be that fucking hard to be at least the slightest bit of a decent human.
The first time MAGA wore masks of their own volition.
If this was 1945, these people would be shot on the streets.
Nazi’s did not stop becoming the enemy just because the war ended. The Nazi party being abolished was a condition of surrender.
As far as I’m concerned, a Nazi on US soil is an invading enemy soldier and should be shot on site.
There was a Nazi Party of America which was quite popular before the US entered WWII and there are still millions of them today (based upon Trump voters).
Doubt
Canada was mass importing Nazis after ww2 to counter communism, I imagine the US did the same considering they imported their scientists
For anyone wondering, the group is the "Blood Tribe" led by Christopher Pohlhaus.
So...they are neonazis and they somehow name themselves after a primitive type of group, a tribe, that belongs to an inferior civilization, according to their views? Are they incapable of proper thinking or what?
?
Tribes are just a human thing. The Vikings were basically a tribal society and they fucking love them.
