Sadly, it has been going on for pretty much as long as punk has been around, and it doesn’t really have a single contributing factor.
In the US 80s hardcore was made up mainly of white angry teens and young adults. Most weren’t racist but some were. And the low entry of musicianship needed to get into punk made it easy to start a band, so some Nazi bands started forming. The fans of these band thought they would be welcome at other punk shows, but were wrong. That’s why the Dead Kennedy’s wrote the song “Nazi Punk Fuck Off”.
In England skinheads have been around since the 60s but where not the racist skinheads you think of today. It was more of a working class subculture. Oi punk evolved from this subculture, so as fascist started adopting skinhead culture the music came with it. It also doesn’t help that some early punks would wear Nazi symbols to be provocative, even if they didn’t believe in the ideology.
Even in the 90s, when I was a teen and active in the local punk community Nazi’s would show up to a show every now and then. It always ended up with them getting drug outside and getting the shit kicked out of them. Even if they weren’t at the show if there was a sighting of Nazi’s nearby people would go running to kick the shit out of them. Yet, every few months it’s like they expected something else to happen when and would show up again.
My only thought on why this shit is still happening 30-40 years later, is that you have to be a fucking moron to be a Nazi, so it’s not like they would have the best judgement when it comes to where they are welcome.

The real Nazis run your schoolsI feel like I’m missing context behind some of the lyrics but that line is still JUST as fitting. 👏

Same reason why MAGA loves to go and ruin Pride festivals, to harass them. They believe that everyone else is sufferring from delusion and are waiting for someone like these MAGA or Nazi scumbags to “save” them.

My teacher was a punk back his day and fondly told us about how him and his friends would beat the crap out of Nazi punks when they would show up at the spots. He was born in Germany and his parents lived through the tiny mustache man period, so I am sure it was an act of German and family pride to address them appropriately. He would get a twinkle in his eye, as if recalling a fond memory that brought him joy.
Best damn teacher anyone could hope for.

Johnny Ramone was very hard right. Even praised Regan and Bush during the Ramones Rock & Roll Hall in fame speech. The Ramones song “The KKK Took My Baby Away” was Joey Ramone taking a dig at Johnny for stealing Linda Ramone from him.

According to Reddit comments he wasn’t a Nazi, but a biker. Biker gangs have a complicated history with the iconography, to the point where even the non-white groups use the symbols.

So one thing here. Did you all see the size of the guys pushing him out. If you’re a leftist and you’re a guy, eat steak, lift weights, then your too can push all the Nazis you want around. If you’re not training to lift your purple haired big boobed former Goth girlfriend over your shoulders are you really anti fascist

Outing myself as a vegan here, but w/e.
Don’t eat meat, eat protein and work out 3 days a week or more (if you can)! And specially if you’re vegetarian or vegan, don’t hesitate to use 5g creatine monohydrate per day.
Holyginz@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Got no problems with vegans as long as they aren’t getting self righteous and treating non-vegans as sub human. For instance, That Vegan Teacher is a massive piece of shit who actively harms vegans with her actions.
Sp00kyB00k@lemmy.world 1 day ago
What is a good source of protein for vegans? I am flexitarian just to diminish my impact. But my main source is from cottage cheese / yoghurt and the alike.

Hell yea, I think I would like to go vegan at some point. If anyone is vegan curious I find Dr Mike Israetel is has some good videos on it.

Every group of white supremacists should film themselves being pummeled in order to change recruitment numbers. Any sane mind would appreciate them having that strategy nationwide.

Here is a link to the video: yahoo.com/…/man-wearing-nazi-t-shirt-201221275.ht…
The guy has SS runes on his T-Shirt. If you wear SS runes, you’re a nazi (or insanely unexucated and stupid), and it doesn’t matter if you’re also a biker.
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 1 day ago
?
No. Bikers do not have a “complicated history” with Nazi iconography. Maybe some WWII veterans could have an excuse because there killing Nazis and were displaying their captures, no one today has any excuse.
You know what you call a non-white person wearing Nazi symbols? A Nazi.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
“Complicated history” of bikers aside–and we CAN toss it aside because this is today–TODAY, wearing such iconography is inexcusable. This guy 100% knows what that SS symbol represents TODAY, and chose to wear it where he did. Stop making excuses for Nazis.

Some if the comments on this video are wild. People are actually trying to defend him by saying the shirt is from a motorcycle club (which it is) - one that just happened to use that exact symbology/logo. Totally an accident in their part, I’m sure.

I didn’t watch the video. Was it the iron cross symbol?
I used to go to this hole-in-the-wall punk club in Atlanta in the late nineties but I looked like a little hippy kid. My friends had to tell me when it was time to leave since folks might think I was there as a joke in order to fight for fun. I mean, not the same thing at all, but still. Showed me how strongly punk culture has a sense of justice and identity, however spectrumed. Good folks. Strong ethics from my experience.
Fuck a nazi right in the teeth.

You love to see it.
I’m actually glad how this is going down over on Redshit. People are openly commenting about doing this, and worse, to all Nazi pieces of shit and the comments aren’t generally being removed. My original 13 year old Redshit account was banned without warning for saying “It’s OK to punch Nazis”. So it’s great seeing the same sentiment being so overwhelming right now that the mods are basically throwing their hands up and allowing it.
I love seeing Redshit squirm under the weight of its users.

Probably Brooklyn Bowl. It’s a combo bowling alley / mid-sized music venue in Brooklyn NY that opened a second location in Vegas a while back, because Brooklyn-branded things are apparently a big attraction for foreign tourists in the US.

Giant SS logo on the back. Unmistakeable.
Somewhat related- there’s a brand called Simply Southern that’s had some pretty big popularity among a certain demographic. My sister in law came over once with a tie dyed shirt from them on and I was like let me take a look at that. On the back it said Simply Southern, but in between the words was a slanted SS. Crypto Nazi shit. She didn’t even know it was there.

nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 5 hours ago
Part of it is just how Nazi recruiting and attempting to get a foothold works. They see a subculture with disaffected youth and societal outcasts (especially young men) and think of it as an opportunity. All subcultures have to remain vigilant because Nazis will do their best to subvert and appropriate anything and everything that they can to try to spread their socio-political disease.
Some more current examples are gaming, the chans, and fitness clubs/events (ex. Spartan Race). Not all of them are filled with Nazis but, they have been used as recruiting tools.
roguetrick@lemmy.world 1 day ago
It’s just amazing how ingrained the Nazis were(and likely still are though I haven’t been there in years) in Orange country. I remember I went to a restaurant in the early 00s as an East Coast anti racist skinhead. The Nazis thought I was one of theirs. Some server chick had to show me her Himmler tattoo. Whole place is lousy with them. Where the old troma flick surf Nazis must die premise came from.
