Dear lord... 😖 Can the media call these people Nazis now?

"An international network of 'race science activists' ... has been operating with secret funding from a multimillionaire US tech entrepreneur."

"In one conversation, HDF’s organiser was recorded discussing “remigration”... mass removal of ethnic minorities ... 'You’ve just got to pay people to go home.'"

"Ahrens seemed to suggest that recruits could be transformed into an elite group modelled on the SS, the Nazi party’s paramilitary."

“We’d rather be read by a few billionaires than 10,000 new normies”

@ProPublica and @texastribune report: "Tim O’Hare’s leadership in Tarrant County, Texas, gives a glimpse of far-right priorities: cutting programs for at-risk youth, targeting elections and stifling dissent. Home to 2.2 million people and the city of Fort Worth, [the county] is the most significant political battleground between Republicans and Democrats in Texas."
