Face Mask With Swastikas Sold at Florida Shell Gas Station

16. I've been seeing this crap all of my life

I live in MI, done a lot of driving through small towns in Northern MI. Flags with Swastikas on them are rarer now than they were in the 90s, but you still see them from time to time. I've also seen them driving country roads in the Midwest, and down South.

I don't get it, it's not just white supremacists who fly them, some do just to be "contrarians" and are going for shock value. It's not rare to see a Trump flag next to the Swastika flag these last few years.

I remember seeing a Flea Market where a whole stand was Nazi gear and flags. I am a bigger dude and bald, so I just shave my head, and I have some facial hair. So I've been mistaken by skinheads as one of their own before. And the guy working the stand must have thought my shaved head meant something because he called to me, "Hey brother, big discount if you're interested." I was offended, but came up with a snappy comeback, I said, "No thanks, my grandfather lost his hearing and a leg killing Nazi scum in World War 2 and I'd never go against my country by buying that garbage." These people have the nerve to claim patriotism too all the while honoring the biggest enemies to America of the 20th century.

They don't get it, they're the ones who are anti American, just as mainstream Republicans are too because they're against Democracy now and without Democracy America is no more.
