A Scripps News reporter confronts an out-of-state neo-Nazi group who were demonstrating in Nashville, Tenn. They were said to have created havoc on the streets with symbols of hate and vile words.

Article details how reporter – pre-armed with relevant facts and cameras – confronts neoNazis in Tennessee. | Excerpts:

Members of the Goyim Defense League harassed people in the heart of Nashville’s entertainment district, berating a lesbian mom who had just left a restaurant.

Later, the neo-Nazis assaulted a bartender who had confronted the group.

“I’m curious: Why Nashville? Why did you guys choose Nashville?” I asked Minadeo.

A fellow GDL member, Nicholas Bysheim, quickly answered.

“It’s the only place that respects freedom of speech,” Bysheim said.

Minadeo added, “Yeah, this city respects freedom of speech, but communist Jews like yourself don’t.”

A Californian who moved to Florida, Minadeo leads the hate group as it goes around the country trying to create scenes that they hope will bring them attention and followers.

One of their favorite tropes: Falsely accusing Jews of being pedophiles.

Over and over, it became clear that these are people who are blind to any facts that don’t support their hate.

These are really pathetic human beings.

They are the only ones who seem not to know it.

      The “Aryans” these clowns claim to be never actually existed, they’re some lame occult-adjacent bullshit cooked up by Himmler et. al. to sell the big lie.

      EDIT: Saw this was .ml so I’m gonna try to be nicer about it

      The issue with neonazi’s is not that they misuse and abuse words, history, rhetoric. Though they certainly do.

      The solution to neonazi’s then is not to correct them on their lexicon or try to catch them in a logical fallcy or a lapsus.

      Flippantly, the cure is simple: cure-for-fascism

      Less flippantly, the cure is organized, militant worker movements willing and prepared to resist the reactionary violence that is sure to come as the West steadily loses its hegemonic status in the world. The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters. And you don’t debate a vampire that’s got his fangs in your neck. You go get a stake.
