I'll delete if this is actually a political question? I saw a sign r/o

in a yard in NW FL today that was red and I'm 99% sure it said "I'm a blood defender". What does that mean?

I saw one of those in WV today? It kind of sounds like a MAGA thing doc03 Oct 2022 #1

Came up about the blood of Christ.

"Saved by the blood"

Connects to song lyrics which include
"Blood defender"

Blood Defender = Defender of White Racial Purity

Protector of the Aryan race (which isn’t a race . . . .

This goes back to the racist pseudosciences preceding WWII

Remember the slogan Blood and Soil

It’s Nazi mysticism, referring to the core cult belief in superior Uebermensch Aryan heritage, a supposedly spiritual essence embodied in bloodlines
