These unpatriotic fools

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Why don’t they take the masks off what are they afraid of? Fucking losers

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 hours ago

They all have Covid

Not an expert in American white supremacists (we have our own racist bastards in my country..)

What's the meaning of the upsidedown flag ?

And what represents the white and blue cactus-shaped logo ?

[–] TrueStoryBob 8 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

An upside down flag is meant to be a signal of distress.

The "cactus-shaped" thing is most likely a fasces, which is a bundle of sticks with an ax in the middle of them. It's a common symbol of like "together, we are stronger." It's used in some generic US iconography, but has also been used by fascists.

Thank you!

I knew the fasces, but only with the axe in the middle of the sticks and its blade above (it sometimes appears this way, in French iconography). I didn't know this version with the blade on the side of the bundle of sticks.

Buncha wanna be tough guys play dress up and practice their high-school ass color guard routine.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Until it comes to street fights where they're prepared I guess?

[–] Dorkyd68 5 points 10 hours ago

That's why left needs to arm themselves, and train. This isn't just memes and shit talk anymore, these dorks want blood and as such us on the left needs to be ready

[–] SLVRDRGN 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Did one of them forget what a right-side-up US flag looks like?

[–] Raiderkev 8 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I think it's a distress signal, which doesn't make sense since their boy's in power again.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 hours ago

They probably self-identify as victims and are in a constant state of distress. I'm hoping the strain of living with that mentality day to day shaves off a few decades of each of their lives.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Although patriotism is basically the same thing, it's more honest to just call them Fascist Front.

[–] ivanafterall 2 points 13 hours ago

Catchier, too.

[–] OCATMBBL 3 points 14 hours ago

Patriotism, but as a Front.

[–] [email protected] 97 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Worth noting, Patriot Front had a huge leak of data in 2022.

You can download it at the following torrent address:

I happen to be seeding this on a permanent basis. I have a gigabit uplink. Please leach and share. Expose these fucks.

[–] InternetCitizen2 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Are there smaller versions?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

Not of which I'm aware.

[–] StarshotJohn 16 points 1 day ago

I spent about 30 minutes browsing that media and holy fuck...it's both really cringe and frightening at the same time.

[–] Bustedknuckles 122 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm amazed that they can breathe with those masks

[–] Fredselfish 63 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Aren't they same kind people who anti mask during covid. It should be legal to shoot these fucks. Also isn't mask illegal now in mega world?

[–] Magister 32 points 1 day ago

illegal only for democrats and non-white people

[–] Damionsipher 23 points 1 day ago

Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it's not ethical - like killing white supremacists/Nazis!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

Read 2nd amendment. It is legal to shoot them doing anything violent

Fucking cowards. Show your faces. Own your bigotry.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Want them to drop their masks? Just tell them there's a new pandemic.

[–] bitjunkie 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Pretty soon that won't even be lying!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Sometimes I wish there were awards a la Reddit on Lemmy.

Stance, glasses, and build.

[–] Lemminary 1 points 7 hours ago

Unequivocally! Picture him with his hands around his waist/belt and it's a perfect match.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Didn't they learn from right wing propaganda that masks produce co2 that makes you stupid?

[–] Bytemeister 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

They don't seem to be affected for some reason...

[–] bitjunkie 4 points 11 hours ago

Can't get colder than absolute zero

[–] [email protected] 51 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All the nasty bastards scuttling out of the woodwork now.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 day ago (2 children)

With masks on and a uniform, so brave.

It’s so cute that they all match. All the way down to their insecurities and small wangs

[–] motor_spirit 19 points 1 day ago

small wangs to bind them

[–] Majorllama 31 points 1 day ago

Always covering their fuckin faces. Cowards.

[–] Carvex 20 points 1 day ago

That's cute, do you think they made a group trip to target for those khakis?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

Fortunately, they're dressed like dorks so anybody can look like them and do a Luigi

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

I'm not paying $40 for an hdmi cable no matter how much you threaten me.
