    It’s nice to think that most if not all these Nazi losers are dead now. I just wish their shitty ideology was too.

    Just think history repeats. The GOP is followng the Nazi game plan right now.

    We’re at the stage where they’re convincing all their followers that, the only to “save” the US. Is to ignore our rules of government…

    This shit is scary as fuck

      They already made one violent attempt to stay in power with too many people shrugging it off as a ‘riot.’ I fear they will try it again, but with a full complement of guns and bombs.

        While Madison Square Garden had prepared itself for the German Bund, many around New York City considered the Nazi sect less welcome in their city. About 100,000 anti-Nazi protesters gathered around the arena in protest of the Bund, carrying signs stating “Smash Anti-Semitism” and “Drive the Nazis Out of New York”.[6] A total of three attempts were made to break the arm-linking lines of police, the first of these, a group of World War One Veterans, wrapped in Stars and Stripes, were held off by police on mounted horseback, the next, a “burly man carrying an American flag” and finally, a Trotskyist group known as the Socialist Workers Party, who like those before, had their efforts halted by police.[4]

        I love that the lone burly man carrying an American flag was disruptive enough in attempting to get through the police line to warrant mention.

      Lots of German immigrants in Argentina; Nazi Germany utilized German communities in other countries to spread their vile ideology, where possible.

      After WW2, there were also lots of German ‘immigrants’ to Argentina… though that later immigration wave has more to do with the fascist-sympathizing dictator in charge at the time.

        Many German immigrants came from the other side too, both before and after the war.

          Refugees are generally expected to return to their country of origin. The Nazis fleeing to Argentina had 0 chance or intention of returning to Allied-controlled Germany where many were wanted as war criminals.

      Possibly to avoid anti-fascist demonstrators rushing the stage, as I know happened in several non-German Nazi rallies around the world.
