Don't lump me into the collective "we".
We're part of it. It's our country and the majority decided to take America down this path.
We are "we" because we are part of this society.
I didn't vote for it. I know, very clearly, what direction we're headed in. Anyone that didn't just float through their history classes with barely passing grades should know. But I still accept that I'm part of it. WE are a very stupid society.
Everyone shares some level of accountability, and I know nobody wants to hear it and will stomp and huff and gnash their teeth at the notion, but it's true. Some carry a much larger chunk of that responsibility than others, from of course the people who didn't care and didn't vote, and the people who cared and still didn't vote, to just the people who rolled their eyes every time someone posted a "political" picture in /r/funny and had to start a 300+ comment deep thread about how stupid politics is, down to the small pieces held by everyone who did everything right but never valued their community, didn't make a stand against people saying and doing things we didn't agree with, and lets not forget everyone who never involved themselves in their local elections even enough to vote for the people who represent them, they allowed many to go unchallenged and those people went on to prop up a government run by and representing a minority ideology.
Yup.
Democracies only work for average citizens if average citizens inform themselves responsibly and vote responsibly. Americans are AWFUL at that.
I'm honestly ashamed of our country. Never really felt that before. At least not to this degree.
3 of these guys marching down the street: a joke.
3,000 of these guys marching down the street: a nightmare.
You only hide your face if you're proud of something that you're probably not supposed to be proud of...
Or you fear being harassed by the cops.... oh wait nvm.
Exactly. Some of them may actually be cops. They always get some number of facists.

WE CALL THEM NAZIS ABC
the only thing sadder than this is that they managed to survive to the end of their little walk and go home.
In a just society they would have been napalmed and/or turned to ground mince by a large truck.
It would be a shame if Nazis got massacred and noone saw what happened.
The only correct response to this is delivered at muzzle velocity.
Screw tolerance some things need to be eradicated. I wish death in the most heinous way on these scum.
Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.
The sack of shit Government of Putin and their neo-Nazi supporters. Every single WW II veteran rolled in their grave.

Trump will pardon them, so there's gonna be a fuckton more of this shit over the next four years. Likely progressively worse as we go.
Yup.
Things aren't getting better in America anytime soon. Even if the "pendulum swings". Pendulum doesn't matter in a society full of fools and racists. There is no magical reset button every 4-8 years for mistakes of the magnitude we just made as a society.
Buckle up.

This will be normalized within the next 4 years.
When the masks come off, that’s when it’s really bad.

Do a march on the same route an hour after they finish and say "We are better than them and don't hate you" do it un masked and see how many people join you.
I will never again wonder how a group like the KKK was able to form, thrive, and persist for so long, inside the USA.
So glad I don't live there. I'm worried about you all.
Good luck.

Oh hell no. Place 2x4s in a place they'll accidentally walk into them. Like your hands at their eye level with a runneng start.
Don't worry, it won't be long and they will not need to mask anymore.
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 ...
