Totally cool and normal activities https://suckless.org/conferences/2017/
Since when is hiking in torch light proof of fascism fantasies?
wonder what else happened during the summer of 2017 that famously involved torches and multiple fascist groups working together
Here to point out before anyone can go “well actually.” That rally was inherently violent and the fact that it did not end up with more people dead (especially the local Jewish community) is a miracle.
Also, those photos make my skin crawl. That’s not subtle whatsoever. Anyone who pretends otherwise is blind.
it also goes without saying that even though this is the “first annual torchlight hike”, the second was never scheduled, as after 2017 marching around with torches became way too loud a dogwhistle. anyway, here’s one of these weird German fuckers demoing their video editing suite using only pictures of Trump for some reason
But maybe they were just really into torches. That's a totally normal everyday thing that people do. Doesn't everyone prefer the illumination of a naked flame compared to a modern flashlight?
You just don't like people having hobbies. \s
