The group of more than a dozen masked individuals marched wearing red shirts and black pants, waving flags with swastikas on them. It is not clear at this time who the group is or affiliated with, though many of the shirts said “Blood Tribe.”
‘Tennessee Nazis… I HATE Tennessee Nazis.’
The Tennessee chapter is rumored to be predominantly into children which is why they hide their faces

oh gee a decade into worldwide hard right authoritarian rise and there’s always some yahoo making this same fuckdamn stale joke IN EVERY FUCKDAMN THREAD.
What’re you really mad about?
Fucking nazis are taking over western culture, that’s what I’m mad about
Fucking nazis are taking over western culture
Maybe you should ask why “western culture” seems so uniquely fond of nazism.
Oh I know why but it’s not just a Western culture thing, it’s a human thing but recently changes in human culture has made the west especially susceptible to it.
It’s tribalism and fear and lack of investment in the future of our nation, it’s economic stress and social disconnectedness and the very human desire to try and blame all problems on a single monolithic entity, and to follow the largest and loudest person who hates that monolithic entity so much he will take your culture to the victorious promise land of a past that never existed.
That is fascism in one paragraph.
it’s a human thing
Since when is capitalism a “human” thing? You know… capitalism? That thing fascism cannot exist without?
That is fascism in one paragraph.
Yeah… I don’t think you know anything about fascism.
Since when is capitalism a “human” thing?
Humans invented it and have widely adopted it across nearly all cultures?
Do you even think about what you write or are you using an LLM?
Yeah… I don’t think you know anything about fascism.
Well considering how pants-on-head idiotic your first statement was, I’m not sure your personal definition is any more informed.
Free speech absolutism goes way too far.
Nazis marching is an implicit threat of violence and should be treated as such.
When free speech is implicit denouncement of equality it’s not free. It’s cancer and should be treated as such.
Meanwhile Pelosi is accusing anyone who’s critical of U.S. support for Israel as being a Russian plant. Here’s a crazy idea, instead of considering walking back free speech rights in the name of security we try something less drastic? Like I don’t know, maybe electing someone different than Biden in the 2020 primaries? Maybe not blocking worker strikes? Maybe not sending weapons to a country using them to commit war crimes?
Let’s try all those things first before we jump to removing first amendment rights.
What on Earth does this have to do with Pelosi or Israel?
Right-wing ideologies moving inexorably to it’s logical conlcusion has nothing to do with right-wing ideology moving toward it’s logical conclusion?
Because according to Pelosi, criticism of U.S. support for Israel is a threat of violence as well.
Why should I give a shit what Pelosi has to say?
Dude is misquoting her anyway.
Memorialize this bra so current and future generations have proof of your stupidity.
Of course they were wearing masks. If they sincerely thought their beliefs were in the right, they wouldn’t care if people knew who they were. They would proudly show themselves and stand behind those beliefs publicly.
Cowards.
Not defending them, but they can certainly think they are in the right and realize that most of society violently disagrees with them. I’d say they were smart to wear masks to avoid repercussions from their vile, awful, hateful behavior.
I hope that if their names come out that they lose their jobs, get their asses kicked, get disowned by family and friends, and get run out of town. They know that many people feel the same as I do so, even if they really believe the filth they represent, they are probably scared to show their faces.
Shoot them? I mean you have guns over there right, so for fuck sake use them at least once for a good reason.
Exactly. Americans are always going on about how they need guns to defend themselves from tyranny.
You have tyranny marching on your streets. Just go and shoot them with your guns. What’s the issue?
What’s the issue?
You don’t see any issue in allowing vigilante justice where civilians are free to murder people on the streets that have differing opinions from that of their own? Is this the world you want to live in? You think there’s any chance the outcome might be something different than what you hoped for?
Being nazi is “having a differing opinion”?
It is when more than half the cops and 1/3 of the politicians share the same rancid and destructive ideal.
And we are forced to pretend they are normal people and let them speak at our schools and walk our streets.
I doubt nazis have any opinions that differ from his.
Opinion, world view, religion, sexuality, race …
This isn’t about just nazies. If one advocates for a world where common people are allowed to take justice into their own hands and just murder people perceived to be bad then that is a horribly violent world where nobody is safe. I would be making the exact same argument on a right wing forum where someone suggest we should just shoot the communists. That’s a horribly ignorant thing to say.
It literally is just about literal nazis. Yes, they should shoot Nazis until Nazis go away again.
Pacifism didn’t win WW2, and it won’t win now. This “enlightened centrist” take is why this is happening again. Libs, socDems, demSocs, anarchists, Marxists and communists need to realize that fascism is here. It’s not going away with “talks.”
People here are literally advocating murdering others for thought crimes. They only need to hold a set of certain beliefs and that is a good enough justification to murder them. No, actually it’s even worse; people only need to think you hold a set of beliefs and that’s enough. One doesn’t need a PhD. to figure out how a society acting in that way will go sideways in a heartbeat.
Not thought crimes. Marching in the streets with literal swastikas on flags. Their “set of certain beliefs” killed 17 million people (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocaust_victims) as part of their beliefs: and that’s without counting the deaths they caused by starting a war.
It’s not some clever gotcha to pretend this is a grey area. It’s not folks saying to go after GOP members, people in militias that are dogwhistling, or even the Proud Boys. It’s not folks that loudmouths on twitter are claiming are nazis. The issue here is literal fucking nazis. I actually have a PhD, and I consider it wise to chase literal goddamn nazis out of town with violence. Tolerating the most extreme intolerance is not a path toward a good future.
Ask Heather Heyer if she thinks Nazism is just a thought crime?
Read about the Paradox of Tolerance before the leopards eat your face.
They’re Nazis you prat.
perceived to be bad
Nazis, dude. “Perceived,” my ass.
I’m not talking about just nazies.
Also, vigilante justice like this means there is no court process and investigation about wether said person actually is guilty of the crime they’re accused of. Innocent people will fall victim to it aswell. I’m sure there are more that one people in this thread thinking I’m a literal nazi aswell but I’m not and murdering me would mean murdering a person for “crime” they did not commit.
I’m not talking about just nazies.
Cool. What other groups are you talking about?
Yes, you fucking are.
Yes, unless you share that same opinion, then it’s just the same. Welcome to the world, some people suck and you might not agree with all of them. That doesn’t give you the power to be supreme leader over all of nature.
They. Are. Nazis.
The only good nazi is a dead nazi.
Either you clean them out now, or they take over.
History is VERY clear on this point.
We failed to clean them out 100 years ago. They’ve all but completely taken over at this point. November may be the last vote that counts for anything we get. And people are far too calm about it.
They are Nazis. Vigilante justice is the reason for the 2nd amendment.
Is this the world you want to live in
if it’s only Nazis I’m completely fine with it. Shot those fucks.
We tried calling in the police but strangely they were all busy with some other event.
they were all busy with some other event.
Laundering their white hoods, of course.
👀
Yeah, I don’t know if free speech covers this.
We (Allies) never made peace with the Nazis. We crushed their military and hanged any officials that didn’t eat cyanide, but there was no treaty or surrender. We didn’t even let the Germans govern themselves until we could figure out who wasn’t a Nazi.
I would argue that anyone who flies that flag is effectively pledging allegiance to an enemy. And like… The enemy. The guys who industrialized genocide and literally tried to take over the world.
So idk about shooting them if they’re just jerking each other off in the street. But I would like to channel Aldo Raine and carve swastikas into their foreheads.
Dude come on. Plenty of officials in West Germany after the war were Nazis. We took Nazis and used them in NASA. The US loves Nazis if they serve the ruling class or are the alternative to socialism.
Good luck with that more than half our nations cops are on the fascist’s side.
half our nations cops
Half? Police is literally a fascist institution - ie, funded and manipulated into existence by capitalists to protect their power and privilege from the people they exploited to get said power and privilege in the first place.
It’s not half - it’s all of them by default.
My estimate is that only about half would actually march under the banner if there was no social consequences. I could be wrong but I’ve known a few hundred cops.
They are marching “under the banner” right now - every time they put on that uniform, in fact. Nobody forced them to be hencherproletariat - traitors and opressors to their own class - did they?
We (Allies) never made peace with the Nazis.
The west made peace with nazis when they saved nazism by filling Germany’s post-war intelligence services with them. That, and the fact that the ruling elites in the west never gave up it’s admiration of them in the first place.
And something tells me these nazis ain’t bright enough to get paperclipped.
The cops get really pissy about that for some reason. Guns for me (and my Nazi buddies) but not for thee, i guess.
It is not clear at this time who the group is or affiliated with…
The GOP. They’re affiliated with the GOP.
I fucking hate Tennessee Nazis.
yeah. They taste much worse than even Texas Nazis.
…
i heard
I miss when Nazis weren’t such cowards they covered their faces. How else are we supposed to ostracize them from society.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression, sickness and death. It should be outlawed entirely.
We could at least take a page from modern Germany’s laws and prohibit public expression of right wing ideologies. They know first-hand what happens when you don’t deal with an infestation early.
How about we take a page and a box of .45 from grandpa and his lessons about how to deal with Nazis. You don’t ask, or deal, or outlaw it.
The 1911 should be cleaned and oiled regularly.
Hear, hear!
We could at least take a page from modern Germany’s laws and prohibit public expression of right wing ideologies.
The entire German political establishment is right-wing (just like every other formal political establishment on the planet) - so obviously those laws don’t mean squat.
This is an article on a local Tennessee FOX News page. The comments on the article have some disgusting whataboutism brain rot being posted trying to distract from the fact that THERE ARE LITERAL NAZI FLAGS BEING MARCHED UNIRONICLY IN PUBLIC. Tennessee has some filth within its borders…
People also unironically go to Kid Rock’s bar in Nashville.
The infuriating part is when everyone on the Right goes on Twitter and pretends they are “feds” pretending to be Right Wing for…reasons? “Feds” was trending on Twitter as this happened, and the last time there was a fascist March, the one with the khakis.
Like I’m glad they are disowning these guys but doing it by calling them Feds is actually not saying it would be bad if it was real, seems like only a matter of time before one of these groups gets into a Waco-style shootout with police and they become martyrs for some reason.
The cops and FBI are riddled with right wing nutjobs. There’s not been a Democrat to hold the position of FBI director, afaik.
Like how “antifa” did Jan 6? It’s just every person who got caught and put on trial was the MAGA exception they “tricked” into the insurrection.
The infuriating part is when everyone on the Right goes on Twitter and pretends they are “feds” pretending to be Right Wing for…reasons?
The Party of Personal Responsibility seems to be full of people who believe that any time someone agrees with them in public, it’s part of a nefarious government plot to make them look bad.
The first time MAGA wore masks of their own volition.

For anyone wondering, the group is the “Blood Tribe” led by Christopher Pohlhaus.
Dickless losers.
Yo that’s kinda demeaning to people without dicks.
They’re spineless and witless and heartless and brainless and feckless. But the presence or lack of a dick has no bearing on character.
Thats offense to invertebrates
Because they identify as male, and yet they may as well not have a dick, for all the value they bring to society.
Most people without dicks are not losers.
Granted, I accept that there is a subset of people who do not have a dick and are also losers, and most of these people do not deserve to be associated with these scum.
However, ultimately, the purpose of my comment was quite clearly not to insult those people, but to dig into the core of what the people in the march hold valuable and insult them.
If you’re not a member of the march, you’re not a dickless loser. However, if you are in the march, then in reality you are a dickless loser because neither you nor your penis (or lack thereof) has no value to society.
I don’t think there were any women in this march.
This is a rally of Donald Trump supporters.
