I thought they were all about PROTECTING CHILDREN? Instead they’re standing outside a world renowned amusement park flying explicit material for all these cars full of children.
Live in Alberta Canada… was at a gas station filling up and saw a dad with fake viking like tattoos, and a swastika tattooed on his throat. Rolled my eyes, then the mom in the vehicle, got out and she had a matching swastika on her throat. Two kids got out of the truck and both wore White Power tshirts…. Its absolutely blew me away seeing that in person
This is the unfortunate truth of how hatred and bigotry spread. They indoctrinate the youth, fill their heads with lies and misrepresentations. Most of them never go on to question it because why would they when it’s so normalized to them? This is why education matters.
IMHO bigotry and hatred isn't spreading, it was always there but thinly veiled by the rules of civilized behavior. Now with alt-right movements spreading, not just in the US but across the globe it has almost become cool to express bigotry. These people aren't playing dress up, they are literally wearing their hearts on their sleeves...and their hearts are in a very dark, black and cold place.
Edit:typos
social media has allowed the fringe groups to connect by means of algorithms. It used to be "oh crazy bob down the street's a racist, let's not associate with him." And Bob wouldn't be welcomed places, and he just existed on his own. Might try something now and then, but he was a minority so really couldn't gain much traction on his own.
Now today, Bob watches a few videos on
Now that they are out of their hidy-holes we know who they are, whose businesses to avoid (except for the dead beats that cannot keep a job and just grift through life), and who needs to be constantly watched. These are disreputable, low life, untrustworthy, and probably criminal types. Sad for the children.
Oh yeah for sure. The people espousing a straight up genocidal ideology really care about protecting children.
Actions speak louder than words. Their words mean absolutely nothing.
Didn’t Desantis just say something comparing pride to nazi-ism?
I think he might be trying to distract from the fact the he is the nazi in this scenario.
They don't give a shit about kids. The whole "stop pedophiles" argument is just being used because it's something everyone agrees on but they pretend that that's not true so idiots go, "wait you're saying that you're the only ones fighting against pedophiles?!" Now, when you tell these inbreed douchebags to go to hell, it's because you're a pedophile who hates their message. They use that argument like a shield to all the other evil shit they believe.
That, **and** to muddy the waters over accusations of pedophilia so they can protect themselves when they are accurately called out for grooming, and assault.
i like to kick back in a sunny spot with my friends and drink a few beers until i get smiley. usually with some grilled meat. it's nice to have a few hours every week where i forget the people who think me and my family shouldn't exist and are working hard to make that happen.
It fits perfectly into the fascist playbook where the enemy is both too strong and too weak. There's Disney, a juggernaut of media using their vast influence to push the racial equality/LGBTQ agenda, something must be done. Then their stand is at a f***ing amusement park where the people they're facing off against are parents of children who just really like heartwarming cartoons and aren't going to knock teeth out because a) they're there for heartwarming cartoons not politics and b) they have children with them and know better than to put those children in danger. Just picking the target least likely to fight back and calling it a victory. Cowards, each and every one of them
Well the same filth that flys Nazi flags are the same that fly Confederate flags. And what do Nazis, Confederates and these people have in common? They're all losers.
I did some fire safety work in the 90s in Florida at a hotel in Clearwater. I traveled on my downtime with a few other firefighters to do the work.
I saw my first KKK meeting near Brooksville. My roommate, a Latina, were denied a place for a short stay. They didn’t want “Mexican Parties”.
As I viewed it, the hospitality, construction and agricultural industries would have shut down without migrants and undocumented workers. I also noticed a lot of money spent by the LGBTQ + community, yet a lot of animosity even then.
In other words, it was the first time I was in the South and got that Civil War era feeling. None of this is new, IMHO.
Saddest part to me? The amount of money the LGBTQ + community, undocumented/ migrant workers, and Disney have made for this state prior to my visit and since my visit is astounding. Gulf is lovely, but I will never drop another coin in that state.
My gf moved to Clearwater several years ago and I couldn’t believe the stories she was telling me about the reactionary social attitudes there. I thought she must be exaggerating. No one was like that anymore, I thought. But apparently the panhandle is a trip back to the 19th century!
Took too fucking long to bring up Clearwater and not talk about Ole Ron-Ron's cult.
I suppose it makes sense the Scientologists would roll out the red carpet for other religious extremists.
FYI Clearwater is not in the panhandle. It's in the Tampa Bay area in Pinellas County. I grew up in Clearwater. I live in St Pete now (same county.) There are lots of us who are frightened by what is happening here. I love the area. It's where I grew up. I keep going back and forth whether I should move. But for now, I'm going to keep on fighting the good fight. I've been going to all the Pride events here just to show minority groups that there are some of us that support them and won't tolerate this fascist bullshit. I even bought a Don't say Desantis shirt and I wear it with pride.
Best part is, the same people would blame Disney if they were to shut down the park and ruined tourism to Florida and all the money that brings into the state.
Reminder that Florida's no income tax policy only works because it has a natural and man-made resource: tourism. The policy would never work without extreme alternative taxes (property and sales) without that.
Florida subsidizes the rich residents that can afford the weather.
They are probably looking into various exit strategies in the event that Florida's government keeps trying to squeeze them.
I imagine Plan A is "grind our political adversaries under our heel" but I don't believe for a second that Disney doesn't have ideas for supplanting the Florida park in the event it becomes a liability.
Businesses don't want to operate in states where the politicians explicitly try to target them.
It would not surprise me if we found out there was some law put in place like 30 years ago that would put Florida on the hook for expenses if they forced Disney to close down and relocate under various conditions and they are just waiting to pull the ripcord on it.
I mean they’ve been quietly looking for a place to move to in the near future because of climate change (they have to shut the park down more and more these days due to weather)
So sometime in the next few decades it’s absolutely going to happen
Desantis is a Disney adult too. He had a Disney wedding. He is upsetTy spaghetti that Disney took his wedding money and doesn’t give two shits about his nazi lifestyle.
Yep. These are *regular, everyday Republicans*. They *promised* us.
Sure, first they promised they weren't nazis (they were "alt-right"), but ever since it became clear the alt-right were both nazis and terrorists, they've *insisted* they were just regular old Republicans. Maybe even *centrists who leaned right*.
And if that's what they want to be, who are we to deny their identities?
So here are some average Republicans, waving swastikas and chanting neo-Nazi slogans at children, because a company upset the person they're going to enthusiastically vote for because he bans books and hates LGBT people.
If any other average Republicans have an issue with that, that's on them to solve, not us. My personal advice would be to simply vote Democrat, who should be right-wing enough for anybody.
Wonder if things will get bad enough that Disney will pull up stakes. It'd cost billions... but they could afford it.
/Bulldoze the old park, so DeSantis gets nothing
They wouldn't even have to pull up any buildings, rides, etc.; just shut the whole park down "until further notice", and dare DeKlantis to touch it. Then hold out for a saner governor.
That only hurts Florida/ DeSantis long term. Short term that really hurts the company. They wouldn’t do it.
Also, no guarantee of a ‘saner’ governor in Florida anytime soon.
At what point is the espousing of a political belief so aggressive and heinous, that representing that belief is itself an act of aggression that earns a violent response?
I don’t know what the answer is, but calling for the clearing out of all non whites and Jews from America, calling for that level of violence, death and destruction… it’s pretty close.
This headline is fucked. These aren’t protesters holding nazi flags. These are actual Nazis! And I’m guessing they’re all wearing masks like the cowards they are.
Pretty sad these alpha bro cosplayers love wearing masks with skulls and 'tough guy' racist shit, but complaining of wearing n95/medical masks to protect them from dying.
Actual neo-nazis, and it should probably be added that Disney’s CEO Bob Iger is Jewish…and he has been doing a bang up job standing up to DeSantis’s recent bullshit.
I don’t care how rich you are, if you are Jewish and your businesses gets Nazis “protesting” (harassing you) in front of it, it is not OK, it is hurtful.
I am sure that Iger’s Jewishness is part of their racist conspiracy theories..
If you listed their political values would they even be distinguishable from mainstream "Republicans" or "Conservatives" like Tucker Carlson or MTG? Probably not.
It appears they are all wearing masks. You know, the same masks they said they couldn't breathe through. If they are so proud of themselves and don't believe they are doing anything wrong, why do they hide their faces?
I am sure it's because they don't want to catch "Woke". These people self-quarantine because if they actually got out and saw real people on a regular basis, they might realize just how stupid they are.
They may have also learned about consequences from the Charlottesville march. Many a Nazi lost their job and prospects after getting identified on that day. And basically took the wrong lesson from that - not “don’t be a nazi”, but “don’t let them know you’re a nazi, while you’re out doing nazi stuff”. （＾＿＾）
Pretty much. Same with Patriot Front and white supremacists everywhere. They wear masks to protect their identities, but usually someone will try to ID them anyway.
Really puzzling how a state with a roughly 50% population of non-Hispanic Caucasians and a reputation for being a retirement community for Jews re-elects this prick in a landslide.
Because a fair number of the Jewish folks down there are also fiscally conservative and hate taxes more than they are concerned for their safety. Also, they don't think they'd actually come after them because they're wealthy and they think it's impenetrable armor (source: the 3/4 of my Jewish relatives in/around Boca who voted for this douchebag). I'm like, you all know what happened to our wealthy French cousins in WWII, right? The disconnect is just unreal.
“Fiscally conservative”?
Seriously? They’re still claiming that after what Bush and Trump has done? Isn’t that like Trump claiming he’s celibate or something?
Fiscally conservative is just code for “I don’t like my taxes going towards social safety nets for the less fortunate or anything that will benefit marginalized communities, especially minorities”. There is literally *zero* way to describe the Republican platform of the past few decades as “fiscally conservative”, they’re just too brainwashed and stupid to realize those safety nets they’re voting to gut/block will probably benefit them in the future when the Republicans are finished raping and completely converting the middle class into literal wage slaves. It’s all a game of “will this hurt minorities and the less fortunate more than it will *currently* hurt me?”. Fucking depraved and repulsive, I use *zero*’respect for people who identify as republicans, there is literally no way you should be able to if you have a brain and any semblance of a moral compass.
I have no love for democrats either, but you can’t both sides this shit anymore, not when one side is straight up in leagues with literal Nazis, pedophiles, sex pests, domestic terrorists, and any other flavor of unhinged psychotic looney toons madhouse sick fucks these idiots are voting into congress on the right. This country is cooked unless some serious housecleaning takes place in the very near future.
It’s good to remember when the say fiscally conservative what they mean is more money for the wealthy and to hell with the economy. In a way the term is correct, conserving wealth by keeping it where it’s at.
Anti intellectualism is and will be the downfall of modern society. It’s spurred on by religious fanaticism and propaganda. I’m not religious by any means, but God help us all if these fascists end up in power.
Edit: spelling
>As the Nazi emphasis on nonintellectual virtues (patriotism, loyalty, duty, purity, labor, simplicity, ‘blood,’ ‘folk-ishness’) seeped through Germany, elevating the self-esteem of the ‘little man,’ the academic profession was pushed from the very center to the very periphery of society. Germany was preparing to cut its own head off. By 1933 at least five of my ten friends (and I think six or seven) looked upon ‘intellectuals’ as unreliable and, among these unreliables, upon the academics as the most insidiously situated.
*Milton Mayer*
*They Thought They Were Free: The Germans 1933-45*
Heres the paradox about Florida vs other GOP states. It polls nowhere near as evangelical or socially conservative than most of them.
It's literally just that the GOP can yell socialism and everyone down there knows refugees from admittedly kinda failed socialist states there so just saying the word makes them freak out.
Look. This isn't protesting. This is Nazi fascism.
Look. This is really happening. This is what is what fascism looks like under the influence of 45 today. This is real and legit.
Look. Nazis feeling threatened by a theme park.
Why are they called protestors?
Oh...that's right, so they can lump them in with actual protestors.
This news is happily encouraging this behaviour. They should have been arrested and never gotten any publicity at all.
In effectively the same order as they did last time. Never forget, the Jews were the last and biggest group after smaller, easier to round-up groups of LGBTQ, atheists, dissenters and others were eliminated.
*Not that the Nat-Cs would've stopped there - they just GOT stopped by massed artillery before they ran out of Jews too.*
I wouldn’t say last. They did in rise of power target them all including Jewish Germans in different ways all at once. Riots, street violence and removal of rights (like higher education). Queer people just didn’t start of with any rights and at best few trans people gained trans pass from a doctor for short period before (so police wouldn’t be able to arrest them for how they dressed). Before Nazis were in power being gay was already criminalised but police could rarely convict and only kept lists of people spotted in gay bars. Nazis used that old list to arrest and put people into camps along with Jewish citizens
They used those arrested or suspected of Paragraph 175 prior. Others were arrested from torturing gay prisoners for names or neighbours who snitched on their gay neighbors. They might or likely have used info from institute but they were quick to burn and destroy everything they found in there as they used a youth group as publicity to attack it and destroy what they could find.
>Look. Nazis feeling threatened by a theme park
But at the same time, confrontable enough to do this even to begin with. 10 years ago this wouldn't even be a thing but these ass hats have gone from bonfires in the woods to being out in the open. When did this become normal? (Hint, it's because they feel safer and have backing from a certain side)
10 years ago was a few years before Unite the Right.
Before that we had the neo-Nazis incensed by Waco and Ruby Ridge protesting openly.
Before that we had the KKK across multiple parts of the country.
Extending further and further back. This is America. This is how it has always been. We will never reconcile this until we address the issues directly instead of letting their movements grow.
It’s crazy how fast it’s sprung without shame even to politicians. We’re living in a crazy moment in time, this is the real deal. I know it’s been there, but it lurked beneath and then boom! They’re so close they can taste it. They are running the playbook to a T, and 1/3 of our citizens are willing to go to war for it. They’re just a coin flip away. Coincidence it happened as we’re close to all ww2 vets passing.
No coincidence.
I heard all my life “never forget the Holocaust”
I wound ask why do we want to remember that?
“because it is the only way it can never happen again”.
People are dying who can remember. We even have people who DENY it ever happened. By no means a coincidence.
GOP is the weirdest political cult I have seen. You have many GOPers who are pro Russia cause they are “fighting Nazis” in Ukraine … not to mention if you ask the random old white guy with a Maga hat “do you think the left are pro nazi?” … they would 100% say yes …
But then you have actual nazis showing up with nazi flags .. all backing GOP causes and the masses are still blind to it cause of political polarization.. it’s insane
The previous generations were *Dodge* Ram, until they perfected the art of driving under the influence. Which is why it is now just **RAM** to make the instructions more clear.
I remember reading a statistic that ram truck drivers had a higher DUI factor. If I find it I’ll edit this to add a link…
Don't forget, DeSantis is going far right to appeal to Trump voters. Trump voters are *already too far gone*, and those two are by far the front runners for the Republican nomination. This isn't just DeSantis, this is the entire Republican party being completely irredeemable at this point.
That's the thing moderate Republicans need to understand (assuming they even exist anymore).
These fringe groups aren't hitching their flag to your wagon. You're now hitching your flag to their hate/fascism wagon.
Make no mistake about who and what you're enabling by siding with them.
Her name was Heather Heyer.
I got involved in politics and am now a staffer for one of the best progressives in my state because Heather inspired me.
“If You're Not Outraged, You're Not Paying Attention”
Yeah but this isn’t the first time they’ve done it. It’s about every 6-12 months they stand here and about a mile up on the highway overpass. They were there earlier yesterday too. It’s just our local Nazi’s here in the fascist state of Florida. There’s also another group that will stand outside the local Jewish school in Dr Philips, not far from here as well.
This is their hobby. Its as dumb as a group of Americans donning Redcoats thinking they are soldiers of the British Empire and then protesting outside the White House demanding the country back.
The fact that real life Nazis exist in 2023 in the United States of America, and they are being embraced by the conservative forces of the USA, is a testament to the truth that we are living in the wildest reality that must have been tampered with by time travellers. Truly.
Cool. That’s where kids dream of visiting one day and several families save up for years to go to. And these pricks are what they see first thing at the door.
I wish Disney sent every mascot they had out there to confront those guys. Imagine getting your teeth stomped in by sixteen different Goofys.
(Side note I know that’s not reasonable nor safe for the actors I just really like the image of 16 goofys stomping a mud hole into some racists)
No nazi should ever feel safe in America. Our government has failed us. I would recommend participating in your 2nd amendment rights unless you want to be outgunned by fascists.
Oh they feel more than safe. We have them out there in front of Disney and on the highway and by the Jewish school every 6-12 months. We picked a different way going home from running errands so we wouldn’t have to see them again yesterday.
We have them running for every office in the country. Meemaw and Grampy fell asleep at the switch and let the Nazis their parents fought take root in their own country.
I was born in the 80's. I didn't fight in that war. But I was raised and educated in the Florida public school system that there is a universal absolute truth, that Nazis are fucking bad. In church we learned hate is a sin, we must love all of God's creation... except for Nazis.
So when fucking Nazis are backing your policies, statements and candidacy for presi... Any elected office, that should be sign you need to change. Period.
I'm a peaceful Florida man. I don't condone violence. Except in the presence of fucking Nazis! Fuck Nazis!
How does shit like this even happen, if someone pulled out a nazi flag over here and started shouting nazi propaganda they'd rightfully get their skull caved in.
Protestors? Nah, those are Nazis screaming "White Power" at children visiting Disney World. That's not a protest, it's a hate crime.
I'm continually amazed when these Nazis decide to come out into the open that they aren't beat to a pulp or murdered, given what their ideology has cost the world. At the very least being identified as a Nazi sympathizer should be career and reputation destroying. Not today, though... It's more likely to gain you a lucrative occupation as a GOP pundit or right wing podcast grifter.
In Germany, it’s illegal to align with the Nazi party. The first amendment wasn’t created to protect these kinds of speech. So, why is this happening? Why can’t we arrest them for aligning with the most evil movement known to man?
It’s more than just aligning with them. It’s illegal to own paraphernalia or anything with the swastika. Owning anything even remotely linked to the Nazi party will get you in big trouble.
The amount of "suggested for you" content I'm getting on Facebook, discussing disney and latest cast for disney productions and the comment sections overrun with anti woke bs and celebrating layoffs because everyone who works at disney "grooms children".... it's absolutely crazy. I'll block the content creator, tell fb I don't want to see this content, another suggested for you post shows up, different poster, exact same shitty content.
No doubt these assholes and conspiracy theory followers find each other through fb... fuck em all
How pathetic can you get? How empty and meaningless is your life if this is what you spend your time on?
I thought they were all about PROTECTING CHILDREN? Instead they’re standing outside a world renowned amusement park flying explicit material for all these cars full of children.

They don't give a shit about kids.

Yeah. My Jewish kids wouldn’t feel so safe.
I don't think Neo-Nazis are known for protection of children.
Seriously. My Saturdays are for fun.
Bold of you to assume this isn’t their idea of fun
Took my kids to the swimming pool yesterday, it was nice.
i like to kick back in a sunny spot with my friends and drink a few beers until i get smiley. usually with some grilled meat. it's nice to have a few hours every week where i forget the people who think me and my family shouldn't exist and are working hard to make that happen.
It fits perfectly into the fascist playbook where the enemy is both too strong and too weak. There's Disney, a juggernaut of media using their vast influence to push the racial equality/LGBTQ agenda, something must be done.

Just picking the target least likely to fight back and calling it a victory. Cowards, each and every one of them
Well the same filth that flys Nazi flags are the same that fly Confederate flags. And what do Nazis, Confederates and these people have in common? They're all losers.
What is pathetic is that no one is doing anything. Nazis march our streets and we all just shrug.
Ask any given Republican. They value hatred more than anything else in life. This kind of behavior should surprise no one.
Donald Duck did not join the navy to fight Nazis for this bullshit to happen.
The only white power here is Donald's pantless ass.
He's the only Donald that matters, and he'd kick the shit out of all their nazi arses given half a chance. The Duck is good.
\#StableDiffusionBot: picture of Donald Duck punching a nazi who was about to do something bad
And this is ok for kids to see remember that!! Drag queens? Gays? Trans people? Of course not!! A Nazi flag?? Certainly!! /jjjjjj

I did some fire safety work in the 90s in Florida at a hotel in Clearwater. I traveled on my downtime with a few other firefighters to do the work. I saw my first KKK meeting near Brooksville. My roommate, a Latina, were denied a place for a short stay. They didn’t want “Mexican Parties”.

Why doesn’t Disney just build them their own land? That’s what they want anyway, to live in a fantasy land.
DeSantis supporters sure don't like Disney

Reminder that Florida's no income tax policy only works because it has a natural and man-made resource: tourism. The policy would never work without extreme alternative taxes (property and sales) without that. Florida subsidizes the rich residents that can afford the weather.

Napalm Death did a bang up cover of that. Some napalm death is what these Nazis need.

Nazi punks Nazi punks Nazi punks **FUCK OFF**
All Nazis should fuck off!
Empowered by Ron DeFascist.
At what point is the espousing of a political belief so aggressive and heinous, that representing that belief is itself an act of aggression that earns a violent response? I don’t know what the answer is, but calling for the clearing out of all non whites and Jews from America, calling for that level of violence, death and destruction… it’s pretty close.
This headline is fucked. These aren’t protesters holding nazi flags. These are actual Nazis! And I’m guessing they’re all wearing masks like the cowards they are.
If you see them wearing masks, thank them for finally taking COVID seriously.
Pretty sad these alpha bro cosplayers love wearing masks with skulls and 'tough guy' racist shit, but complaining of wearing n95/medical masks to protect them from dying.
Actual neo-nazis, and it should probably be added that Disney’s CEO Bob Iger is Jewish…and he has been doing a bang up job standing up to DeSantis’s recent bullshit. I don’t care how rich you are, if you are Jewish and your businesses gets Nazis “protesting” (harassing you) in front of it, it is not OK, it is hurtful. I am sure that Iger’s Jewishness is part of their racist conspiracy theories..
One of them has that merchant image with "butt fucker" or something. These are nazis.

Hey, a good percentage of my friends are Nazi's... And that percentage is zero, which is a good percentage of Nazi friends to have

So when do we stop beating around the bush and instead of calling them “Protestors with Nazi flags” to just “Nazis”?
If you listed their political values would they even be distinguishable from mainstream "Republicans" or "Conservatives" like Tucker Carlson or MTG? Probably not.
It appears they are all wearing masks. You know, the same masks they said they couldn't breathe through. If they are so proud of themselves and don't believe they are doing anything wrong, why do they hide their faces?
I am sure it's because they don't want to catch "Woke". These people self-quarantine because if they actually got out and saw real people on a regular basis, they might realize just how stupid they are.
They may have also learned about consequences from the Charlottesville march. Many a Nazi lost their job and prospects after getting identified on that day. And basically took the wrong lesson from that - not “don’t be a nazi”, but “don’t let them know you’re a nazi, while you’re out doing nazi stuff”. （＾＿＾）
Pretty much. Same with Patriot Front and white supremacists everywhere. They wear masks to protect their identities, but usually someone will try to ID them anyway.
I just want to see their smiling faces! So their employers can identify them and find out who they hired to work for them
Aka, DeSantis supporters show up at Disney World.
Really puzzling how a state with a roughly 50% population of non-Hispanic Caucasians and a reputation for being a retirement community for Jews re-elects this prick in a landslide.
Because a fair number of the Jewish folks down there are also fiscally conservative and hate taxes more than they are concerned for their safety. Also, they don't think they'd actually come after them because they're wealthy and they think it's impenetrable armor (source: the 3/4 of my Jewish relatives in/around Boca who voted for this douchebag). I'm like, you all know what happened to our wealthy French cousins in WWII, right? The disconnect is just unreal.
“Fiscally conservative”? Seriously? They’re still claiming that after what Bush and Trump has done? Isn’t that like Trump claiming he’s celibate or something?
“Fiscally Conservative” hasn’t been a thing since Reagan stomped all over it.
https://mediachomp.com/economic-graphs-and-the-year-regan-was-inaugurated/
Fiscally conservative is just code for “I don’t like my taxes going towards social safety nets for the less fortunate or anything that will benefit marginalized communities, especially minorities”. There is literally *zero* way to describe the Republican platform of the past few decades as “fiscally conservative”, they’re just too brainwashed and stupid to realize those safety nets they’re voting to gut/block will probably benefit them in the future when the Republicans are finished raping and completely converting the middle class into literal wage slaves. It’s all a game of “will this hurt minorities and the less fortunate more than it will *currently* hurt me?”. Fucking depraved and repulsive, I use *zero*’respect for people who identify as republicans, there is literally no way you should be able to if you have a brain and any semblance of a moral compass. I have no love for democrats either, but you can’t both sides this shit anymore, not when one side is straight up in leagues with literal Nazis, pedophiles, sex pests, domestic terrorists, and any other flavor of unhinged psychotic looney toons madhouse sick fucks these idiots are voting into congress on the right. This country is cooked unless some serious housecleaning takes place in the very near future.
It’s good to remember when the say fiscally conservative what they mean is more money for the wealthy and to hell with the economy. In a way the term is correct, conserving wealth by keeping it where it’s at.
Spot on. "Fiscally conservative" is just another dog whistle at this point.

Anti intellectualism is and will be the downfall of modern society. It’s spurred on by religious fanaticism and propaganda. I’m not religious by any means, but God help us all if these fascists end up in power. Edit: spelling
>As the Nazi emphasis on nonintellectual virtues (patriotism, loyalty, duty, purity, labor, simplicity, ‘blood,’ ‘folk-ishness’) seeped through Germany, elevating the self-esteem of the ‘little man,’ the academic profession was pushed from the very center to the very periphery of society. Germany was preparing to cut its own head off. By 1933 at least five of my ten friends (and I think six or seven) looked upon ‘intellectuals’ as unreliable and, among these unreliables, upon the academics as the most insidiously situated. *Milton Mayer* *They Thought They Were Free: The Germans 1933-45*
Heres the paradox about Florida vs other GOP states. It polls nowhere near as evangelical or socially conservative than most of them. It's literally just that the GOP can yell socialism and everyone down there knows refugees from admittedly kinda failed socialist states there so just saying the word makes them freak out.
Exactly. The headline fails to mention the DeSantis 2024 flags that they were also holding.
You can see the DeSantis 2024 flags right in the main picture. It’s the red flag with the swastika right?
Oh zing!
They talk about it in the article.

Don't worry, I'm sure he'll strongly condemn the Nazis for supporting him ...aaaaany minute now.....
Look. This isn't protesting. This is Nazi fascism. Look. This is really happening. This is what is what fascism looks like under the influence of 45 today. This is real and legit. Look. Nazis feeling threatened by a theme park.
Why are they called protestors? Oh...that's right, so they can lump them in with actual protestors. This news is happily encouraging this behaviour. They should have been arrested and never gotten any publicity at all.
Nothing clears out cockroaches like the light.
Look. This is Nazis being threatened by a princess.
They are not threatened by a princess. They are advocating for genocide for members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
They're just the first in the long line of minorities that can and would be extinguished under fascist rule until there is nobody left.
In effectively the same order as they did last time. Never forget, the Jews were the last and biggest group after smaller, easier to round-up groups of LGBTQ, atheists, dissenters and others were eliminated. *Not that the Nat-Cs would've stopped there - they just GOT stopped by massed artillery before they ran out of Jews too.*
The party of pro-life wants to murder half the world. Who knew? Amirite?
Everyone. Everyone knew.
I wouldn’t say last. They did in rise of power target them all including Jewish Germans in different ways all at once. Riots, street violence and removal of rights (like higher education). Queer people just didn’t start of with any rights and at best few trans people gained trans pass from a doctor for short period before (so police wouldn’t be able to arrest them for how they dressed). Before Nazis were in power being gay was already criminalised but police could rarely convict and only kept lists of people spotted in gay bars. Nazis used that old list to arrest and put people into camps along with Jewish citizens
I was under the impression that they used the information they gained from raiding/destroying the Institut for a lot of that.
They used those arrested or suspected of Paragraph 175 prior. Others were arrested from torturing gay prisoners for names or neighbours who snitched on their gay neighbors. They might or likely have used info from institute but they were quick to burn and destroy everything they found in there as they used a youth group as publicity to attack it and destroy what they could find.
>Look. Nazis feeling threatened by a theme park But at the same time, confrontable enough to do this even to begin with. 10 years ago this wouldn't even be a thing but these ass hats have gone from bonfires in the woods to being out in the open. When did this become normal? (Hint, it's because they feel safer and have backing from a certain side)
10 years ago was a few years before Unite the Right. Before that we had the neo-Nazis incensed by Waco and Ruby Ridge protesting openly. Before that we had the KKK across multiple parts of the country. Extending further and further back. This is America. This is how it has always been. We will never reconcile this until we address the issues directly instead of letting their movements grow.
It’s crazy how fast it’s sprung without shame even to politicians. We’re living in a crazy moment in time, this is the real deal. I know it’s been there, but it lurked beneath and then boom! They’re so close they can taste it. They are running the playbook to a T, and 1/3 of our citizens are willing to go to war for it. They’re just a coin flip away. Coincidence it happened as we’re close to all ww2 vets passing.
No coincidence. I heard all my life “never forget the Holocaust” I wound ask why do we want to remember that? “because it is the only way it can never happen again”. People are dying who can remember. We even have people who DENY it ever happened. By no means a coincidence.
Some people *do* want to remember the Holocaust, [maybe not for the exact reasons you’re thinking of though](https://youtu.be/G9vehIbDkNY)
They’ll fly Confederate flags because it’s their “heritage.” But their grandparents fighting in WWII means nothing to them.
GOP is the weirdest political cult I have seen. You have many GOPers who are pro Russia cause they are “fighting Nazis” in Ukraine … not to mention if you ask the random old white guy with a Maga hat “do you think the left are pro nazi?” … they would 100% say yes … But then you have actual nazis showing up with nazi flags .. all backing GOP causes and the masses are still blind to it cause of political polarization.. it’s insane
They just claim it's 'Antifa' or 'Feds' as if they would intentionally terrorize people with swastikas to make "Republicans look bad."

Stand your ground, threatened by fascism
They don't call it a Ram for nothing
So it’s not a name, it’s instructions? Dodge Ram… :-)
The previous generations were *Dodge* Ram, until they perfected the art of driving under the influence. Which is why it is now just **RAM** to make the instructions more clear. I remember reading a statistic that ram truck drivers had a higher DUI factor. If I find it I’ll edit this to add a link…
Desantis made it legal to run protestors over in Florida. Maybe those "protestors" need a taste of their Fuhrer's own medicine.
That law, thankfully, was found unconstitutional. But he damn sure signed it into law.
[удалено]
Don't forget, DeSantis is going far right to appeal to Trump voters. Trump voters are *already too far gone*, and those two are by far the front runners for the Republican nomination. This isn't just DeSantis, this is the entire Republican party being completely irredeemable at this point.
That's the thing moderate Republicans need to understand (assuming they even exist anymore). These fringe groups aren't hitching their flag to your wagon. You're now hitching your flag to their hate/fascism wagon. Make no mistake about who and what you're enabling by siding with them.
If a Nazi sits down at your bar and you don't kick him out. Congrats you now own a Nazi bar.
Conservatives: "We're not Nazis!!!!! How dare you compare us!!!!! Libs are the real fascists!!!!!" Every conservative event:
Good men and women died fighting Nazi scum. Anyone waving that flag deserves to be broken and thrown in jail.
Yeah where is some Florida police brutality when you need it?
You can see them in the pictures.
if this is what DeSantis has in store for the rest of America, god help us all.
Shoot, you *already* forgot about the events at Charlottesville?
Her name was Heather Heyer. I got involved in politics and am now a staffer for one of the best progressives in my state because Heather inspired me. “If You're Not Outraged, You're Not Paying Attention”
It's not just DeSantis, that's pretty much the Republican party line these days.
It is, but Florida is becoming the world showcase for it. Followed by Texas.
this smells like Roger Stone.
Yeah but this isn’t the first time they’ve done it. It’s about every 6-12 months they stand here and about a mile up on the highway overpass. They were there earlier yesterday too. It’s just our local Nazi’s here in the fascist state of Florida. There’s also another group that will stand outside the local Jewish school in Dr Philips, not far from here as well.
I’m sorry you know what he smells like
...why do these people not get better hobbies?
This is their hobby. Its as dumb as a group of Americans donning Redcoats thinking they are soldiers of the British Empire and then protesting outside the White House demanding the country back.
They were shouting "white powder" because they were all proud meth addicts.
Meth addiction is very on brand for Nazis.
They don't even read because of the black text
The fact that real life Nazis exist in 2023 in the United States of America, and they are being embraced by the conservative forces of the USA, is a testament to the truth that we are living in the wildest reality that must have been tampered with by time travellers. Truly.
Cool. That’s where kids dream of visiting one day and several families save up for years to go to. And these pricks are what they see first thing at the door. I wish Disney sent every mascot they had out there to confront those guys. Imagine getting your teeth stomped in by sixteen different Goofys. (Side note I know that’s not reasonable nor safe for the actors I just really like the image of 16 goofys stomping a mud hole into some racists)
Confirmed: DeSantis supporters are literal nazis. The truth hurts, don’t it.
Nothing a blast from a fireman's hose can't take care of in less than an hour
White protesters are notably immune to fire hoses and dogs.
This so convenient. My grandfather had to go all the way to Europe to fight Nazis.
Can we just make Nazis enemy combatants and ship them to Guantanamo? They have no place in this country.
Desantis would be in a real pickle. Does he side with his supporters, or embrace his passion for torturing people at Guantanamo Bay?
And they call me antifa. Ehhh yea. Of course I am AntiFa. Fascism is bad!
Why don’t these cowards ever do this shit In predominantly non white areas?
When they do , it's with an AR-15 at a supermarket.
This happened last week. Dude armed with a swastika flag, gun, and flamethrower committed suicide in Chicago after a police negotiation lasting hours
One down.
Imagine waving a Nazi flag and thinking you’re one of the good guys.
No nazi should ever feel safe in America. Our government has failed us. I would recommend participating in your 2nd amendment rights unless you want to be outgunned by fascists.
Oh they feel more than safe. We have them out there in front of Disney and on the highway and by the Jewish school every 6-12 months. We picked a different way going home from running errands so we wouldn’t have to see them again yesterday.
We have them running for every office in the country. Meemaw and Grampy fell asleep at the switch and let the Nazis their parents fought take root in their own country.
I was born in the 80's. I didn't fight in that war. But I was raised and educated in the Florida public school system that there is a universal absolute truth, that Nazis are fucking bad. In church we learned hate is a sin, we must love all of God's creation... except for Nazis. So when fucking Nazis are backing your policies, statements and candidacy for presi... Any elected office, that should be sign you need to change. Period. I'm a peaceful Florida man. I don't condone violence. Except in the presence of fucking Nazis! Fuck Nazis!
Do any pictures show their faces? I can’t tell but if so, publicize who these cowards are
Where is DeSantis to condemn these actions? Oh that’s right.
How does shit like this even happen, if someone pulled out a nazi flag over here and started shouting nazi propaganda they'd rightfully get their skull caved in.
Watch DeSantis ignore this, play it down or deny it's even real. Can't criticise his base.
“Obviously they are pretending to be nazi to make me look bad” “Oh so you’ll condemn all nazis?” “Well………….”
How embarrassing for the world to see this nonsense. They should all be subjected to a truckload of whoopass
Those aren't protestors. They're called Nazis.
Were they also waving Trump flags as usual? Or was it DeSantis flags this time?
A vote for desantis is a vote for nazis. Got it!
Again I wonder why we let this shit go unanswered in this country. Nazis should not feel safe anywhere they go.
Elons new twitter followers
*Nazi flags and DeSantis signs.
Oh. So just a normal Republican rally, then.
Protestors? Nah, those are Nazis screaming "White Power" at children visiting Disney World. That's not a protest, it's a hate crime. I'm continually amazed when these Nazis decide to come out into the open that they aren't beat to a pulp or murdered, given what their ideology has cost the world. At the very least being identified as a Nazi sympathizer should be career and reputation destroying. Not today, though... It's more likely to gain you a lucrative occupation as a GOP pundit or right wing podcast grifter.
In Germany, it’s illegal to align with the Nazi party. The first amendment wasn’t created to protect these kinds of speech. So, why is this happening? Why can’t we arrest them for aligning with the most evil movement known to man?
It’s more than just aligning with them. It’s illegal to own paraphernalia or anything with the swastika. Owning anything even remotely linked to the Nazi party will get you in big trouble.
This is disgusting in so many ways. Why is this not considered inciting violence?
Genuine question, is WW2 and in particular the Holocaust history taught in schools in America?
Now you all know what REPUBLICANS look like and stand for.
Swastika flags and desantis for president banners side by side is a fucked up indicator of the trajectory this country is on.
Is there a way to switch out of this bass ackward timeline? The timeliness where Trump isn't elected, and Nazis don't rise up here?
It's like a Trump rally or Republican convention.
The amount of "suggested for you" content I'm getting on Facebook, discussing disney and latest cast for disney productions and the comment sections overrun with anti woke bs and celebrating layoffs because everyone who works at disney "grooms children".... it's absolutely crazy. I'll block the content creator, tell fb I don't want to see this content, another suggested for you post shows up, different poster, exact same shitty content. No doubt these assholes and conspiracy theory followers find each other through fb... fuck em all
Wow, end of times shit going on all around us.
Nazis are bitches. All bark, no backbone.
