thread suggesting the highlander center fire might be linked to ex-TWP members in tennessee and a group they formed called the "legion of saint ambrose."

https://twitter.com/knoxradical/status/1113445687646138368
^ that's an iron guard symbol (a romanian fascist movement in the '30s that the TWP guys adored) apparently found at the scene. the iron guard is the popular name for that group, but that was technically only the name for its stormtrooper wing. the party was called the legion of the archangel michael.

it's not just the iron guard symbol, but the next day the "legion of saint ambrose" held a flash demo at the university of tennessee in knoxville, which is about a 30 minute drive away. this seemed to be the inaugural event of the group. heimbach might be involved etc.

it might also be worth observing that "saint" ambrose of milan -- this group's namesake -- was an anti-semite who persuaded roman emperor theodosius I from rebuilding a destroyed synagogue that had been destroyed by a christian mob in retaliation for an arson attack on a christian church by jews. theodosius wanted to make the bishop who led the christian mob pay for the reconstruction, but ambrose wrote:

"There is, then, no adequate cause for such a commotion, that the people should be so severely punished for the burning of a building, and much less since it is the burning of a synagogue, a home of unbelief, a house of impiety, a receptacle of folly, which God Himself has condemned."

Also arguably the most insane/creepy of the WW2 fascist groups, and thankfully never got full control of Romania or I can imagine them being even worse than the Ustashi.

yeah stanley payne's history of fascism goes into them. because they had to square orthodox christianity with fascism, they asserted the iron guard squadristi should risk going to hell (because murder) to save the nation. and the blood-drinking rituals was an initiation ceremony. unusually morbid even by the standards of these movements. and also too (self-)destructive for its own good.

That sounds about right. They were the ones who took the relationship with conservative Christianity to it's most ISIS like conclusions.

The Codreanu personality cult such as it was, was also really really messianic.

one of the odd things about codreanu is that he was handsome by the dog-faced standards of fascist leaders, and was frequently compared to tyrone power, who was something like the tom cruise of the 1930s and famous for swashbuckling movies and a zorro picture, which probably not only explained part of codreanu's appeal at the time but to this day with neo-nazis
