Officials in Columbus, Ohio, blasted a parade of masked people who marched down the streets with swastika flags Saturday afternoon.

Summary

Masked neo-Nazis marched through Columbus, Ohio’s Short North neighborhood on Saturday, displaying swastika flags and making racist and antisemitic statements.

Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.

The incident follows a similar demonstration in Michigan last week, where masked protesters displayed Nazi flags outside a performance of The Diary of Anne Frank.

      Because the civil war losers were never held to account, allowing this shit to continue festering underneath the veneer of American society.

        Yup.

        We didn’t hold the Confederates to account. We aren’t holding Donald Trump and his Republican enablers who spread lies about our democracy and took part in the fake electors plot to account. We’re too pussy to do what needs to be done when it needs to be done.

        Which is why our democracy won’t last.

        It’s inevitable.
