Summary

Masked neo-Nazis marched through Columbus, Ohio’s Short North neighborhood on Saturday, displaying swastika flags and making racist and antisemitic statements.

Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.

The incident follows a similar demonstration in Michigan last week, where masked protesters displayed Nazi flags outside a performance of The Diary of Anne Frank.

I mean why wouldn't they? Americans told them to be Nazi and proud this election after all.

Exactly!

Devine and other R politicians have no shame pandering for their votes, dog-whistles and all.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 13 hours ago

I mean hell, not even dog whistles this time. Trump and his allies were loudly shouting Nazi slogans publicly and there was no pushback.

It should be legal to just round up a bunch of people and beat the absolute piss out of these guys. Just a savage beating to within an inch of their lives, as a warning to anybody who thinks this shit is okay or cool.

When the masks come off, that’s when it’s really bad.

Hey they voted for hate and bigotry at the federal level

I wonder what the amount of Trump gear vs Nazi flags was. It's also very ironic how when Nazi's march in the streets without a permit the cops just block off the street with their cars and perform crowd control to "help protect the city" (the Nazis). And when people of color march without a permit because cops killed another person over something stupid they get met with riot gear, tear gas, and rubber bullets.

It's going to get so much worse before it gets better ...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 12 hours ago

Yep, racists are going to be racist.

They appear to have been arrested, traveling in a U-haul.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Wasn't that a previous Nazi rally? Or did it happen again?

This picture is top of the Columbus subreddit from yesterday, so doesn't seem like it's from a previous occurrence.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago

I checked tineye and it didn't find any other copies of this image. Says it was posted to imgur yesterday.

Reddit is not a reliable source for verified facts in any way, at any time, at all.

I can nearly swear I remember this photo from the last trump administration.

Interesting. The article ends by saying there were no arrests.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 15 hours ago

Ah, maybe the police were stopping them to pick up their coworkers from out of the van so that they could start their shift.

Back in Normandy and Carentan Americans used to call that target practice, make America great again please.

"We will not tolerate hate in Ohio," Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine said in a statement on the social media platform X on Saturday evening.

Talking from both sides of your ballot box, are we, Mike? Fucking moron. You support the hate candidate and you get a hate populace.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 15 hours ago

Considering this was happening before the election was declared as well, I'm willing to take the stance that Ohio is just a magnet for trash Nazis.
