New Hampshire

Arizona

Virginia

Massachussets

You can google ‘Nazi’ plus literally every state and find multiple articles.

e: removed an historical article that wasn’t relevant; I got this conversation mixed with a different conversation I was having, sorry.

Yeah. Started with the 'Unite the Right' rally in 2017, now there are swastikas in a... disturbing number of right-wing protests, marches, rallies, etc. CPAC in 2021 used a popular Nazi norse rune for their stage. Requests by mainstream right-wing organization are asking for specific books about the Holocaust to be removed from public schools and libraries. It's...

ugly.

Yeah, but you see Nazis means national SOCIALIST so they're really left wing.

Which is why, um..., you'll only find them flocking Republican rallies.

With everything that’s happened, I forgot about that.

CPAC stage

Nazi symbol

It’s not subtle.
