Neo-Nazis Swarm Home of New England Governor
Neo-Nazis Swarm Home of New England Governor
Massachusetts filed civil rights charges against the hate group. NSC-131 demonstrators unfurled a banner reading: “We’re not going anywhere.”
Comment on Headline: I don't know if swarm is the right word, I think that implies they entered the home? I guess a group of insects is a swarm whether it's inside or out. They had their Nazi party in the street, and the governor's home is protected at all times by state police.

Dozens of Neo-Nazis demonstrated outside the home of Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) on Saturday night, in an intimidating display of hate. Members of the group NSC-131 — which seeks to create a white-only ethnostate in New England — marched Saturday night through the Boston suburb of Arlington, uniformed in khakis, black jackets, face masks, and baseball caps.
The NSC-131 members moved under cover of darkness, co-opting the progressive activist chant, “Whose streets? Our streets!” The neo-Nazis then lined up on the sidewalk across the street from the Healey’s home, which was protected by state troopers. The group’s members lit red traffic flares, and held these aloft with stiff arm Hitler salutes. They unfurled a banner reading: “WE’RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.”
The action by NSC-131 was an in-the-streets response to civil rights charges brought against the group by the state late last year. A 26-page complaint was lodged by Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell (D) in December. Campbell denounced the group’s efforts to “target and terrorize people across Massachusetts and interfere with their rights,” and insisted the state of Massachusetts is dedicated to “holding this neo-Nazi group and its leaders accountable.”
That legal complaint hits NSC-131 for actions that “unlawfully target and disrupt LGBTQ+ events,” including drag queen story hours; “unlawfully target immigrants based on race and national origin,” including by trespassing at hotels where asylum seekers have been offered temporary housing; “unlawfully attack members of the public,” with frequent brawling at NSC-131 marches; and for numerous efforts to “disrupt public peace and safety.”

Maura Healy was an aggressive lawyer for a long time before she was governor. I'm sure the AG is no exception.
Interesting that they think they are the ones not going anywhere in the state where America drew its first breath of liberty. Fuck Nazis.
They didn't "Swarm" anything, they threatened the lady governor en masse under the cover of darkness like the pussies they usually are, maintaining that thin veneer of legality so that the governor can't go after them.
Now the Nazi punks are acting like they're the KKK to a sitting governor, time to start curb stomping some Nazis kids, before they come to curbstomp the rest of us.
Nazis should be on everyone's fuck-up-on-sight list.
Nazi punks
🤣
We are being entirely too polite to these assholes. Our grandfathers would be ashamed of us.
With 40% of the population supporting these rancid fascist fucknuggets there's no meaningful way to deplatform them and they know it. They need fear beaten back into them.
And yet if you, as a leftist, suggest that we should be arming ourselves like our enemies who have openly said they want to kill us, you'll be called a redneck gun nut, Russian troll, and/or fake leftist.
I have not seen this argument you claim. If a liberal wants to own a gun, they can own a gun. Genuine leftists, particularly of the seize-the-means-of-production sort, are also not exactly unfamiliar with violence.
Perhaps you are hanging out with ... trolls?
Or perhaps actually calling for violence, which would get your comments removed, on here at least?
“Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary”
― Karl MarxYou know, I've never done that or even suggested that people on the left should not have guns, yet I remember people here (and I'm pretty sure you were one of them) telling me that's what I wanted because they decided that something like me saying "I think there should be heavier regulations" or "maybe guns should be kept out of the hands of people who have been institutionalized for mental illness" means I want everyone's gun to be seized by Trump personally.
Where?
Those folks have clearly never met a real redneck, let alone a socialist one. I dream of the day when there are more privately owned functional artillery pieces in the US than people. Imagine if unions could just blast away Pinkertons, Scabs, and Police with high explosive shells.
Also corporations and police shouldnt even be allowed to own guns, fuck you fight me!
The phrasing "New England governor" is a little strange. Like, we know where Massachusetts is, how about some specificity.
Ya reads a bit goofy. Like referring to the Whitehouse as home of Earth President.
I reckon it's a combination of clickbait and an old-school J-school aversion to putting long words in headlines (though you'd typically see "Mass. Governor" in that case).

These dumb fucks don't understand that everyone else has to go along with them.
You're not going to have your precious "white-only ethnostate" when the vast majority of white people in New England have no desire for such a thing.
I like how they went with "New England Governor" so you'd have to click on the article to find out exactly WHICH governor from New England. Like the world's most mundane clickbait lol
Also, swarm does not imply they entered her home. Swarm means "to surround".
Nazi scum. Fuck nazis.
So brave
So edgy
The neo-Nazi group has, nonetheless, attempted to make inroads with the MAGA crowd by coopting the issues animating the GOP base, declaring that “it is Nazism … to oppose Drag Queen Story Hour and Critical Race Theory.”
I mean... feels weird to agree on something.
Remember kids: the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi
It is perfectly legal to punch a Nazi for being a Nazi.
Well, it’s not legal to punch a Nazi just for being a Nazi. However, it is always moral to punch a Nazi for being a Nazi. Just know that if you choose to do the moral thing, the nazis with badges will likely arrest you for it.
What I’m saying is that if you’re going to be arrested anyways, you might as well make it worth it and get in more than just one punch.
Punching nazis is a moral good and every black eye on a nazi face makes a child somewhere smile.
We need to make it legal for citizens to shoot Nazis on site.
Or are we just going to let the police give them escorts everywhere they go and wait until they put the rest of us in death camps?
Ok, prove who is and isn't a nazi.
Saying anyone who holds a different opinion than you is a nazi opens up to people calling you a nazi and shooting you.
Oh no, President Trump has decreed that the LGBT cult are child abusing Nazis, and thus that anyone putting out LGBT propaganda in the presence of children can be shot on sight.
Due process is good, actually. Or at the least, certainly better than the alternative.
NSC-131 leaders posted video of the encounter outside the governor’s home on Telegram, a social network favored by many extremists, along with a message declaring that the point of the protest was “to show the world that lawfare will not intimidate New England Nationalists,” as well as to whine about what the hate group terms a “migrant invasion.”
Lawfare ?
Are they comparing laws to warfare ?
The rule of law is absolute. They know this. Their dream is to attack laws that uphold rights by posing the laws as a form of weapon used against them, whereas what they really want to do is change the laws to take away rights.
So to them, giving rights to brown, black, Jewish, Muslim and LGBTQ+ people is tantamount to warfare against them - because only white, heteronormative Christians should have rights in their eyes.
Ethno-nationalism 101. Attack the laws, to take away the rights, to allow atrocities under the law - also known as FUCKING NAZIS.
Well they compare their "suffering and persecution" to that of the holocaust victims of ww2, so yes. Yes they are.
The group’s members lit red traffic flares, and held these aloft with stiff arm Hitler salutes.
I always wonder why doing the Nazi-Salute is legal in the USA. I mean, so many Soldiers gave their Lives to put an End to fascism and this paired with the pride Americans have for their Soldiers is just baffling.
To extend that answer a bit, the Constitution have a strong element of distrust in the government as an institution, which in historical context makes sense given that it arose from a revolt against a literal monarchy.
It's basically a fear of allowing the government to define what kind of speech is so objectionable that it can be suppressed with state force. Because if the government does have that power, what's stopping a future Trump administration from defining, expressing support for trans children, as supremely offensive to the natural order and thus criminal?
Sure, you can hope that you have strong courts that would block that, but ultimately, the institutional American view is that it's generally safer for the government to not have the power at all rather than simply trust that it won't be abused.
The American constitution forbids the Government from banning it. It has in it one of the strongest protections for free speech and among the most liberal definitions of "speech" in the world.
and among the most liberal definitions of “speech” in the world.
I'd say the most liberal definition considering our supreme court declared that money is speech.
Why do they wear masks?
Because Covid, of course. Not that all Fascist are too afraid to do stunts like this without proper disguise. No sir. Just Covid. /s
I thought New England dudes fancied themselves as ‘tough guys’
We should be curb-stomping these nazi shitcunts. They need to be made to cower in fear.
Why in the fuck would they put New England Governor instead of - ah fuck to get you to click huh
This system sucks
Deploy the National Guard, its treason no?
At this point it seems like mostly theatrics, but Massachusetts does not fuck around with civil rights. I guess they thought they were in Alabama or something.
"What are we gonna do, do what the commies did and kill Nazis? Commies are the enemy of the state, capitalism, and everything American. The enemy of our enemy is our friend!"
- Americans and the leaders they vote for
Oh, that's too bad. It'd have been fucking hilarious if they'd actually unlawfully entered her house and she'd exercised her 2A right to mow them down with an assault rifle with a high-cap magazine. I mean, if anyone is justified to exercise those rights, it'd be the target of a neo-Nazi mob, but the funny would be in the irony.
And, before you pile on me about how traumatic it'd be for her, or whatever else, I'm joking. It would not really be funny. Although, I am generally a proponant of doing unto others as they would do unto you. Never hit a pacifist; never refrain from hitting a Nazi.
Try that in Philly
How to these embarrassments of humanity reconcile their ridiculing of the left for protesting, while simultaneously ignoring this dumb shit?
Like, how do they not see their hypocrisy? You can say they don’t care, but man… who in their right mind would want to be stuck between hating someone for doing a thing, and doing the thing you hate others for?
I honestly don’t understand this level of ignorance.
I am not sure if they’re too small potato to be on SPLC radar. Here’s a toolkit that I think is useful for high school or college communities: https://www.splcenter.org/activist-toolkits
