Anti-Semitic fliers calling Antifa 'Jewish anti-Nazi militia' posted around New Dorp

Anti-Semitic fliers claiming that “Antifa [an anti-fascism group] is a Jewish communist militia” were spotted in the New Dorp area on Saturday morning.

In bold text, the fliers read, “The original Antifa was a Jewish anti-Nazi militia... There is a war against all non-Jewish European-American nationalists.”

Anti-Nazi, according to the flier, means “anti-white nationalist, anti-American, anti-Christian.” The flier also maintains that anti-fascism is equivalent to communism.

The Advance/SILive.com observed four fliers in total on the commercial stretch between Sterling Ave. and Penn Ave. on Hylan Blvd.

I would call that some kind of progress. Now, we may need more of this "anti-Nazi militia" in the form of law enforcement.

Fascism was invented as a response to socialism and communism threatening to sweep across Europe following the Great Depression, when people started to become disenchanted with capitalism. It was sold to the public as a third alternative. Some US industrialists supported Hitler until it was determined that he had gone too far. The US initially chose to stay out of the conflict.

Hopefully the tide will turn against Trumpism.

This is reminding me of Hungary under Orban, maybe Poland, Russia, the Vox Party in Spain, and plenty of other far right groups building momentum in other countries like Germany, France and Italy.

It is toxic fucking shit. And it's not subtle (obviously). And somehow it gets accepted into the mainstream, and then it's death to democracy.

Miserable development.

We didn’t execute enough of them at Nuremberg, IMO.

If any of them here in the US kill anyone, they should get a swift execution.

If people like William T. Sherman had been making decisions, there would have been active gallows all over the South after the confederacy was defeated.

The removal of troops and the end of reconstruction was such a terrible event in this country's history, with effects up to the present day.

It should have been that if any was disenfranchised, it would be the mid-level and higher officials of the Confederacy, not black people.
