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.

    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.

    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.

    The brownshirts are signaling their ascendance after a fascist got elected? I feel like I’ve heard this one before.

    It would be a real shame if someone accidentally dumped neon magenta pink food dye on them.

      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.
