Citizens scare anti-LGBTQ+ neo-Nazi leader & his “training camp” out of town
Citizens scare anti-LGBTQ+ neo-Nazi leader & his “training camp” out of town
Bye bye, hater...
After anti-LGBTQ+ neo-Nazi leader Christopher Pohlhaus purchased a 10.6-acre property in Springfield, Maine with the hopes of turning it into a Nazi training ground, local residents found out about his plan and made him feel very unwelcome. He eventually sold the property, blaming “militant leftists” for the unwanted attention he earned.
Pohlhaus is founder of the fascist group “Blood Tribe,” a group that protested an Ohio drag brunch last May. His group chanted the words “Blood,” “Under the Aryan Sun,” and “No transgenders on our streets,” while throwing Nazi salutes. He also led a similar protest against a drag queen story hour in Akron, Ohio in mid-March.

"Militant leftists" my ass. Sounds like concerned citizens doing their job as citizens.
Militant leftist sounds more like me. And had this man setup camp in my little country town? He would have never seen or met me.
snooping and getting very brazen, even driving down into the clearing
How does, "Hiding well inside the tree line", sound? Like that better you fucking Nazi? Take that as you will.
We need to pull our collective head out of our liberal ass. "EEEK! Call the police on the bad men!" And the police are on their side.
"Noooo! We must ban guns!"
Why? Bad guys are well armed, won't obey those laws, and you expect me to disarm myself?! Hard pass.
"Noooo! We must ban guns!"
Citizens in blue states are rushing to limit their second amendment rights all while citizens in red states are busy expanding their own. Fascist militias are popping up all over the place, and while I'm optimistic and hopeful regarding the future there may come a time we'll wish we had access to normal capacity magazines and non-nerfed rifles. Jon Stewart isn't coming to your rescue when they have you on our knees in front of a ditch.
Liberals need to start listening to what these people are saying, they're very clearly telling us what kind of America they want to live in and what they're willing to do to get there. Conservatives may often seem like a joke, but they're dead fucking serious.
If we somehow dodge this theofascist wave we've still got uber capitalists to deal with, and given the chance they'll take everything we've got. If you're healthy enough to shoot, educate and arm yourselves, it's your civic responsibility.
I am 100% with you about believing people when they tell you who they are. They'll cut off their own nose to spite their face, never, ever underestimate a conservatives capacity to withstand hardship or pain if it's causing their rival more or the same. It's inspiring, in all the wrong ways.
Liberals in blue states have been the largest group buying guns and ammo since 2016 and the trend hasn't slowed.
Look into it. I live in a blue Western state outside the major metropolitan area, which I worked in for 15 years.
Id say a good 80% of the people I know vote Dem and id say a SOLID 85% of everyone I know across the board owns a gun. Everyone is armed, in their homes/apartments at a minimum.
Interestingly, out of the 1000s of ppl I know, veterans (and students 😞) want gun control the most, while those I know in working on the force or in law in a another capacity and vehemently against. Which is kind of mind blowing. Gun control would make a cops job easier, maybe not in the first year, but it'd cumulatively stack. Australia did it, it can be done, save any arguments unless you want to explain how another unruly offspring if the British Empire is soooo culturally different than we are.
Anyways, tons of Liberals own guns, like guns, and can actually afford to take them to the range all the fucking time, they just don't fucking yap on and on about it and make it their personality.
I wish they felt the same about craft beer, for fucks sake.
veterans
Yup. I'm not anti-gun, I'm anti-assholes-having guns. And they constantly prove that they aren't up to the responsibility to keep weapons.

They're quite vocal ATM, yes.
Fascist militias are popping up all over the place
And they're not quite the fringe nut cases they used to be.
Most of us seem to be Americans on here, and we haven't ever had to fight, well, anything. And that includes me.
it's your civic responsibility
I'll fight for my family and my home, and the rest of you, given the chance. But I can hardly do much, self-defense is on all of us.
I'm not brave or badass. Neither am I harmless. And "harmless" is a choice. And I'll post this until I'm blue in the face.
I'm with you brotherman. Intolerance isnt a paradox. Those being intolerant have broken the social rules, therefore the agreement and compromise that tolerance is does.not.apply.to.them
Let the others take the high road. I don't want a mic anyway. I'll be around, down with the rest of my working class, guarding the rear on the low road. You see, my dreams were crash after crash made impossible for me and my copium is simply ensuring that those responsible don't get to live there's either. The dies been cast, I've made my peace with it.
the agreement and compromise that tolerance is does.not.apply.to.them
Can't clap my hands together hard enough. At some point we have to say, "NO. You're clearly outside the tribe's rules and have to go away." 10 Nazis at dinner, add a non-Nazi, now you got 11 Nazis.
Right with you. There's more of us than you hear from on social media like this.
Or that modern proverb about the bartender not serving kicking out the respectful skinhead. In summary, if you let one in, next time he'll bring his 2 buddies and they'll behave. Then a week later you turn around and your a nazi bar.
I have a pretty easy litmus test for people. If you want your personal beliefs to become law and force other people to live your values, it's simple. I think you're a monster. End of story. The basic do whatever you want as long as you don't hurt anyone is really all we need. If you can't eat pork, don't live on a pig farm, but if you can't control yourself then your failings are between you, your conscience and your god and nobody has fuck-all to do with any of that. I have personal beliefs I think would make for terrible policy. I thought everyone had that, or could recognize that but holy shit was I giving some ppl way too much credit. I can't tell you how many grown ass adults, living on their own for decades, I've had to look dead in the eye and say that just bc you thought something doesn't mean it means shit. Your thoughts aren't holy, aren't a revelation from some esoteric being, and they aren't a conduit or embodiment of the divine. At least a dozen people who've never even considered the alternative. It still stuns me, as much as it disgusts me.
It's like too many people think that because the boomers got away with acting despicable (and they we're collectively lead poisoned and essentially stopped emotionally maturing at 14) that that's the norm and now it's their turn. And yea, nope. Strike that thought from your brain. Act right or GTFO. Most of Gen X, almost all of Millennials and a larger chunk of GenZ haven't turned conservative upon getting older. If anything I've swung harder left. We outnumber them.
