The GOP represents the remnants of the south's Confederacy: wealthy conservative businessmen who've decided that "white" males are superior to all other versions of homo sapiens. Their ideology inspired the Nazis to adopt their ideas. They're trying to rise again here and must be stopped again.

My dad did the same, and spent the last 7 months of the war in a German POW camp. He would be disgusted with this stuff if he were still alive.

It’s rebellion against parental hypocrisy. They’ve heard their parents talk like nazis in private, then publicly couch those sentiments in religious or political euphemisms. These young republicans, like many young adults, hate hypocrisy. They rebel to be PUBLICLY what their parents are SECRETLY.

They believe what they've been taught their entire lives – by their parents, teachers, politicians, religious leaders and communities. "The reason we/you don't have this or can't do/have this is of because Black and brown people." It is handicapping their minds. 🤷🏾

🤔: SCOTUS ruled in Virginia v. Black (2003) that while cross-burning as a general "statement of ideology" is protected by the 1st. am., states may ban cross-burning carried out with the "intent to intimidate". The court held that such intimidation constitutes a "true threat," which is not protected.

This is sick, not a game.They should be made to go to a Holocaust museum, watch the Spielberg testimonials, or see the mountains of shoes and eyeglasses taken from the Nazi's victims before being gassed and burned.Watch a few documentaries-REAL ones-and let them learn what the salute meant for real.

Their parents taught them this & if you asked them "they taught them well" according to their own standards, it doesn't spring up out of no where, people's refusal to acknowledge white supremacist sentiments within the USA are part of the reason our reality currently looks like *this* right now.

Let me get this straight: republicanism defends the right to make the hitler nazi salute as free speech, but Palestinian students protesting Israel's destruction of Gaza is antisemitism. Bizarro world...
