It can’t get worse? You’ve seen his kids, right? He has publicly said he wants Ivanka to be the first female president! It COULD get worse, by a lot, it seems to me. ---

It’s like a white power remake of “My Name is Earl”!! BTW, I googled some other images and I’m pretty sure the schlub standing behind Heimbach in the photo in the OP link is the gravitationally challenged David Parrot. Who apparently goes by the nickname “Matt”. Which is just weird. It reminds of the time when this guy named James that I went to school with idolized his older best friend Richard so much that on the first day of school he told the teacher that everyone called him Richard. But that only lasted until the day after the first parent teacher conference. And these were third graders. What else can I say. Idiots. ---

Noah Smith, [Bloomberg columnist](https://www.bloomberg.com/view/contributors/AR3OYuAmvcU/noah-smith), economist, and [newly elected chief Neoliberal shill](https://twitter.com/r_neoliberal/status/973392942965473280) comments: [https://twitter.com/Noahpinion/status/973760743068770305](https://twitter.com/Noahpinion/status/973760743068770305) [INDENT][INDENT] Jack Smith IV: "Holy shit — neo-Nazi leader Matthew Heimbach had an affair with his chief spokesman Matt Parrott’s wife. Parrott is leaving the movement, possibly in shambles, saying: “SPLC has won. Matt Parrott is out of the game. Y’all have a nice life.” Noah Smith: I was about to type “the Nazis are not sending their best, folks.” But, well, maybe they are. Remember, the original Nazis were shaped by WW1. These guys have been shaped by years of sitting on the couch listening to right-wing talk radio tell them they’re better than black people and immigrants. On the other hand, women, black people, Muslim Americans, immigrants, etc. have all been shaped by this kind of adversity: [indent][indent]@SeanMcElwee It’s amazing how routinized right-wing violence is. Threats to the safety of women and people of color barely register in the national discourse. No anti-choice leaders are asked to condemn this or change their rhetoric. [https://twitter.com/SeanMcElwee/status/973718665509113856](https://twitter.com/SeanMcElwee/status/973718665509113856) [/indent] The far right has this fantasy that they’re the hard men, that liberals are these effete coastal elites who will buckle and submit under pressure. The reality is that lifelong adversity has given most people on the left a mental toughness the rightists can’t even imagine. You saw this with GamerGate. The rightists tried to scare and shame women out of the whole geek subculture with continual harassment and threats. Instead, women didn’t shut up or run away, because a lifetime of suffering abuse like that had made them tough. You can see this in electoral politics too. [indent]A good article on how middle-aged suburban women are quietly reshaping politics in Middle America: [Middle America Reboots Democracy : Democracy Journal](https://democracyjournal.org/arguments/middle-america-reboots-democracy/) [/indent] And although I don’t condone street violence against Nazis, it’s hard not to conclude that the far right was out-toughed in the Protest Wars as well: [indent] The Far Right: “We are the hard men, the warrior caste. You wimpy urban liberals stand no chance!” Also the Far Right: “Our rallies aren’t fun anymore, and mean lefties keep shouting at us. We’re going home!” [Richard Spencer, 'alt-right' leader, says his rallies no longer 'fun'](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2018/03/12/alt-right-leader-richard-spencer-says-his-rallies-arent-fun-anymore/416579002/) [/indent] This myth - that democracy, liberalism, etc. make people too weak to fight - occurs again and again. The Confederates made this mistake about the North. The Axis made this mistake about the U.S. Both the Confederates and the Axis were a LOT tougher than modern American Nazis. [indent] @SethGreylyn Replying to @Noahpinion “Bullies are fragile little snowflakes, frightened of the day when the veil is drawn back. And many Coastal Elites are refugees, who moved away from those bullies as soon as they legally and financially could, all the bullies stayed behind to wilt on the vine.”[/indent] [/indent][/indent][/indent] ---

So I guess Indiana Nazis can’t even achieve the dignity of Illinois Nazis. ---
