The neo-Nazi losers should remove their masks.

[–] Bread@thelemmy.club 5 points 2 hours ago

It's like the uno reverse card of how public transportation usually works.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

They all gathered in one place.

Looks like we missed a golden opportunity.

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 24 points 7 hours ago

this is going to be another one of those historic photos that textbooks will use to illustrate america's proud history of bigotry.....

Oh damn it… I fucking hate humans…

These guys always travel in packs. That's why groupthink works so well on them. Where are the lone wolf white supremacist's? No where, because being alone leads to self-reflection and obvious conclusions.

Sounds like they're trying to make it easier for us to deal with them in one go.

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 6 points 8 hours ago

Group think is absolutely an issue, and deindividuation leads to people going further as a group than they would. You're right. Lone actor grievance fuelled violence is also a risk with white supremacists. And there's often a lot of indoctrination via social media.

I feel bad for her. It must of been scary to be on the same train as those crazy hateful weirdos

[–] zorflieg@lemmy.world 16 points 11 hours ago

They're scared of her, how can I tell? Those pissweak white balaclavas.

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 0 points 8 hours ago

If I'd been there I'd have sat with her shoulder to shoulder. Any decent human being would.

strange msot of them were incorporated into ICE a while ago.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 2 hours ago

"ICE arrests plummeted over the July 4, 2026 holiday. Experts are confused to why. More at 11 pm."

[–] BarnWolf@lemmy.world 16 points 20 hours ago (6 children)

It really annoys me that these guys wear khakis as part of their "uniform". I'm a rancher and I really liked to wear khakis because they're light but pretty tough when I'm on the land. But I just can't wear em anymore cause I'm white and middle aged sonI jusy don't wanna get mistaken for one of these fucks. They ruined it for me. Wear something else fuckers!!

[–] CascadianGiraffe@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago

After living off-grid for a few years I developed "the look", complete with massive beard. And now suddenly these fucks think I'm one of them.

Quite often have to deal with comments that are quiet and only 'kinda' racist. But I have been handed a card and asked to attend their white supremacists meetings. Unfortunately this always happens at work where I can't respond appropriately.

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

this is exactly how i feel about polo shirts now too......

[–] smh@slrpnk.net 3 points 7 hours ago

Look into patterned polos. I wear floral polo shirts as my self-chosen daily work uniform. I don't think I'm giving off a fascy vibe.

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Those bastards weaponized Dockers.

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I know how to fix this and all it is is getting lesbians to start wearing dockers.

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

"Give it up dude, she is Doc Martens Dockers Butch."

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 hours ago

those motherfuckers ruined fred perry shirts!

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

I like to jokingly describe my everyday attire as "surplus chic", because the stuff lasts like decades and I need lots of pockets. I feel self conscious sometimes that I might be mistaken for some fashy.

But you know what? We concede WAY too much ground to these bullying troglodytes. Off-the-shelf clothes shouldn't be enough to be an obvious "uniform."

Don't let these bastards take your khakis. "We" already let them take the flag, and patriotism, and the second amendment conversation, and Nordic / Viking symbology for some frickin reason.

We didn't fight hard enough for it, just said "Ah well we're the opposite of those things, please don't take those too."

I'm reminded of an anecdote that makes me laugh every time. When my wife was in high school she was stopped for wearing gloves (fashiony, Hot Topic kinda things). "Gloves are commonly worn by gangs." They said. She responded:

"Well, hope gangs don't start wearing pants any time soon!"

XD

We need that attitude. Some friggin proudboys wanna take the symbol of the flag our forefathers died over? They think because they put some nazis in the whitehouse and shit on senators' desks we're gonna give up our tactical wear and doorkicking boots? Like we should be afraid to rock red white and blue because we might be mistaken for one of them?!

They should be worried they might accidentally be mistaken for some actual damn Americans. Who is the real U.S.A? If I recall correctly the "U" comes from the UNION winning that particular dispute.

We should be rocking that Gadsten flag, warning them not to tread upon us.

They want to co-opt khakis, polos, even entire colors? We should adopt it harder.

Good luck telling who's in their stupid goon squads. They need to be reminded that hate hath no friends.

TL;DR: Wanna take our country's freedom, our rights, our flag, our guns, pickup trucks, cowboy hats if you're into that kinda thing, our freakin' KHAKIS?!

Molṑn fuckin' labé, pendejos.

Nordic / Viking symbology for some frickin reason

I was at one protest where a wannabe Nazi skidmark with a rune-covered shirt (which I'm sure he can't read) was on the incel side and a more androgynous, actually-practicing Norse pagan was on the good side.

No Nazis in Valhalla. Yes, that includes you, Kash Patel.

[–] ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

For sure everyone can tell you’re dressing up as a boring white male by wearing khakis, but I assume that matches the rest of your attire? So you’re fine, if a slightly dull stereotype.

As long as you’re not wearing this bananas cap-sunglasses-balaclava thing! Try a skirt

[–] smh@slrpnk.net 4 points 8 hours ago

Agreed, just add something that signals "not one of THOSE people". Maybe a rainbow- or ally-flag bandana, a black lives matter pin, or maybe just a friendly cartoony T-shirt under your khaki jacket. Add a rainbow or BLM patch to your jacket. Tbh, something as milquetoast as a pink "breast cancer awareness" ribbon would probably work.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 10 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

I don't think anyone is going to think you're a white nationalist because you're white and in khakis.

[–] mrlemmyhimself@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

Yeah without the hat, mask, and sunglasses you'll just look like a dude

Are these the same guys that wouldn't wear COVID masks?

100%

The “I can’t breathe” crowd.

If I sprayed them with a hose would it waterboard them?

[–] Raffster@lemmy.world 35 points 1 day ago (6 children)

And I thought for a moment that was a history pic or something. Fuck, America what happened to you.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

America what happened to you.

We're too apathetic and propagandized to maintain a functional democracy.

[–] TwodogsFighting@lemdro.id 2 points 7 hours ago

They were always nazis. Someone just turned the light on.

You can tell they’re cops who didn’t want to be outed because otherwise they’d have done something to her.

Don't worry, they'll be on shift tomorrow. They'll get her.
