flags there are mixed in with the many Nazi flags and combination flags combining Nazi and US symbols.

Considering that your civil war ended 150 years ago, it seems that in some areas, mainly southern, that news is not common knowledge.

And the heavy presence of Nazi imagery is very troubling. When did anti-Semitic genocide and master race philosophy become a favored philosophy of the American far right?

The second picture is of a number of people with various signs and clothing.

One of the signs accuses Jews of being children of Satan. So the Nazi imagery is horribly fitting in light of this sign. Perhaps it is the only such sign, one hopes, but possibly not.
