2.) Specifically, they're bringing a few different chapters of the American Guard with them. @ADL_National describes the American Guard "hardcore white supremacists":https://www.adl.org/blog/behind-the-american-guard-hardcore-white-supremacists …

3.) But
@Resist_Marxism has *always* been affiliated with white supremacy. This screenshot is of their press release announcing their first even, the Rally for the Republic in November 2017. They proudly list the New Hampshire chapter of the American Guard as a co-sponsor.pic.twitter.com/hB76jac9wk

4.) Here's New Hampshire American Guard President John Camden skyping with Tiny Toese,
@Resist_Marxism's featured speaker on Saturday. You can see the Wolfsangel tattoo on John's neck. That's a symbol often appropriated by neo-Nazis: https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/wolfsangel …pic.twitter.com/yOkNVoOHpH

5.) CW: Nazi sexual violence. And in case you want to claim those aren't neo-Nazi tattoos, here's Camden literally calling them "NS tattoos." "NS" is a common abbreviation for "National Socialist" or "Nazi."pic.twitter.com/A2C8gCHrB0

6.) And the whole American Guard is like this, too. This is a screenshot I just took of who likes their page on Facebook. Let's just go through the Rhode Island American Guard and count how many Nazis we see.pic.twitter.com/H6yQtuYvR9

7.) First on the list is Samson Racioppi, from
@Resist_Marxism. Next up is "Agile Kat." That's Kat Snyder, who helped organize the white supremacist Unite the Right 2 rally:https://unicornriot.ninja/2018/leaked-violent-racists-use-facebook-chat-to-plan-unite-the-right-2/ …Show this thread -
8.) Down from her is "William James," the Facebook alt of American Guard founder Brien James. James is a former member of the KKK and Outlaw Hammerskins, and in 2000, beat a man almost to death for refusing to sieg heil: https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/brien-james …pic.twitter.com/osppBnxY6b

9.) Next is "Josh Cameron," the Facebook name of NH American Guard President John Camden. As we just covered, Camden literally has neo-Nazi neck tattoos.

10.) And lastly, here's Florida-based Shaun Perez. Notice the Hammer of Thor hanging around his neck? That's a symbol often appropriated by Nazis.pic.twitter.com/7ZqjjDNLCY

11.) Let's count how much Nazi shit is in this picture of Rhode Island American Guard member Shaun Perez. His friend invites him to hang out by saying, "Bring your ass on up bro 88." "88" is common Nazi slang for "Heil Hitler." He also has a German Iron Cross on his collarbone.pic.twitter.com/PmiAzjYhhA

12.) He's also got a giant Hammer of Thor around his neck. And that symbol over the top of the picture? It's a vegvisir, a 17th century magic compass symbol from Iceland. It's not always Nazi shit, but it's often appropriated by Nazis.

13.) And that's literally just the first five people that Facebook's algorithm chose to display at random. Four Nazis, plus whatever you call Samson, who apparently just likes to get high with Nazis.

14.) Here's my point-- American Guard is infested with Nazis. The @ADL_National isn't lying when they call them "hardcore white supremacists":https://www.adl.org/blog/behind-the-american-guard-hardcore-white-supremacists …

15.) Still don't believe me? This is George Avery, one of the Rhode Island American Guard's most active members. Let's have a closer look at him.pic.twitter.com/xBgfuoX15x

16.) His Facebook URL is "trueviking1933." 1933 is a popular meme for Nazis-- it's the year that Hitler was elected Chancellor of Germany.pic.twitter.com/xpKygpQ5wI

17.) George can say that he's not a Nazi. But the problem is that is his email-- snakeman1973@yahoo.com-- turned up in the old MySpace data leaks. Check out his username-- "rudolphhess73." Just like the Nazi.pic.twitter.com/bR8ar7MkX3

18.) And his other email address? His username is "oldskoolskin." As in skinhead. Seems like everything's coming up Nazi here.pic.twitter.com/5jpk1txkxD

20.) George is going to be there on Saturday with all of his Nazi buddies in the American Guard. We need you to come out to counterprotest alongside @RIagainsth8: https://www.facebook.com/Ocean-State-Against-Hate-1572021599764065/ …

21.) As
@cdsa_lsc notes, the more people we have on our side, the safer it will be for all of us. If you're able, please think about coming out. This isn't just a Twitter war. We need to be on the streets to protect the most vulnerable members of our communities.#NoPasaranShow this thread
