Maybe I'm just picky, but generally speaking any large, prominent flag that isn't communist or LGBT+ is a red flag for me.

As a communist who doesn’t get along with anarchists, you could say that for me a black flag is a red flag but a red flag is not a red flag.

In some alt-right news from the near north, the guy who assaulted a minor (requiring them to be taken to hospital IIRC) at Hamilton, ON's Pride parade last year pled guilty and is a 'different man' now.

Chris Vanderweide, charged in Pride festival assault, pleads guilty

quote:

Christopher Vanderweide, who's known on social media as "helmet guy," has pleaded guilty to one count of assault with a weapon after violence at a 2019 Pride festival.

Vanderweide was initially charged with two counts of assault with a weapon following a fracas at Pride in the Park on June 15, 2019. The Kitchener man showed up at the festival just after noon with a religious group. Video shows him hitting two people in the face with a helmet.

Vanderweide, 29, entered the guilty plea in Hamilton court on Thursday. He will receive a one-year suspended sentence, which means he won't be incarcerated but has to abide by certain conditions. The conditions of that probationary period include attending anger management counselling.

"All of this definitely probably should have been avoided," said Vanderweide, who wore a face mask that said God taught me. "But now I'm a different man and would like to put this behind us and do something better."

"SIKE! I ain't changed at all," Vanderweide was heard saying later.

pretty much anyone with roman poo poo displayed like that is just straight up fash, though a lot of them like to hide behind the libertarian label because it's still more or less acceptable to identify as such in polite company despite the libertarian movement being absolutely chock full of full on race war white nationalists for decades

These pnw nazis are really scary to me, as it seems like they are successful at seizing power situationally in ways the state can’t or won’t stop. It seems like a place where they could subvert the rule of law and break the monopoly on violence. I keep thinking about that manifesto by a state senator about making a new country out of cascadia where they kill all the men who aren’t fascists and enslave all the women.

from my perspective living in the area, it's much more "won't" than "can't". the cops are edging ever closer to joining the fash

I've spent years now reassuring people that the US Military doesn't have the high fash content necessary to do a military coup. I feel a fool for completely ignoring that the US police could do it on a local level

White supremacists dream of creating a white ethno-state. Oregon actually was a white ethnostate. Oregon literally banned black people from living there for a time. At one point there was less than 100 black people in the entire state. As a result it's a magnet for fascist nuts.

The fascism out there is barely skin deep. High profile people might think they will raise up some fash army, but the grunts out there are all hopped up on meth and pain pills and are back stabbing petty criminals.

The Klan and several Nazi groups have moved into rural Oregon several times, and have all met the same fate. There is a certain corrosive nature to the place. Boredom, alcohol (and now meth and pills), in fighting, paranoia, and their kids turning into hillbilly crooks, all eventual destroy them.

LordSaturn posted:

The "won't" also has a lot to do with rural culture. The universal thing is a general distrust of outsiders. To the local cops, these militia guys may be out right criminals, but they are local criminals and the cops there will deal with them without you guys and you big city ideas telling them what to do.

These little towns are cesspits of incest and crime. Anyone there who had legitimate dreams of fascism has already left to places where that grift is more lucrative.

doesn't this describe like 50% of the blitzkrieg metagame? "make your soldiers fight for two weeks straight, keep them so hopped up on drugs they can't feel themselves physically falling apart from going days without sleep. The offensive push will be over fast enough not to implode due to excessive numbers of personnel dropping dead from being overworked."

when i was attending a CalState school i complained to the administration about the larouchites because if you argued with them they would immediately call the campus police on you, who would then be regular police dicks and try to scare you off. i actually once got some larouchites to sing at me because they aare apparently known in academic music magazines for trying to push ideas about mind control through tones or some dumb poo poo. its just one of their katamari of crazy non-sensical beliefs

anyway, i spoke to the school administration and as publicly run institutions they have to allow free speech and give space to christian weirdos with their giant abortion walls, the larouchites, etc. but when i complained they acknowledged that it was bullshit that the on-campus police station was being abused by outside parties and told me they would speak with them. don't know what came of it, but i at least did not have to deal with cops when i made fun of them and called them cultists. but if outside agitators are coming to your campus for the specific purpose of stirring up poo poo it's definitely a good idea to speak with the admin and make this known so that if there is an on-campus station it is used to protect the students and not the agitators

i know, gently caress the police, but an on-campus station will have a special relationship with the university that they have to maintain and its possible to leverage that

That works great if they are already trained up to be soldiers, and now they are unstoppable soldier on drugs.

The tweakers out in the woods are all trained up to steal scrap metal, shoot up busted appliances, and rat out their friends, and I suppose they will be unstoppable at that if given enough meth.
