[Texas Observer] Homegrown Neo-Fascist Movement Marches in Austin
Researchers have identified dozens of members of the white nationalist group—and no, they’re not “feds.”
Dozens of members of the neo-fascist, white nationalist group Patriot Front marched through the streets of Austin Saturday. The group did not announce the demonstration in advance, leaving no time for opposition groups to mount a counter-protest. It was the largest public gathering of the group’s members since they held a similar march in Washington, D.C., on May 13.

Clean up your shit, Texas.
We're a lost cause.
Nonsense. Just need voter turnout to skyrocket enough to overcome gerrymandering to take the state-wide offices. Then we can work on fixing the gerrymandered districts and voter supression.
Skyrocket? Ain't gonna happen.
I fail to see how electoralism will take care of Patriot Front and their shithead ilk
They've been emboldened by far-right candidates winning elections. Gerrymandering districts has contributed to those wins, by forcing the primary candidates to be more hard-line than the rest, as they don't have to compete for moderate voters in the general. Fixing the elections will snap back to reality the fact that these extreme views are not shared by the majority of society.
I truly wish I was capable of that level of optimism
