Well, tHe nazi called the communist an (expletive deleted) commie, and the communist called the nazi an (expletive deleted) nazi, then somebody sais the nazis would set Greece back 500 years which I would have thought was a good thing but apparently not. Then he threw the water.

A Nazi rally in some place like Ann Arbor, where they’re going to be massively outnumbered, is not exactly the same as Nazis in places where they have real power. I love Ann Arbor, but it’s an island of humanity and reason. Like Manhattan, another place where any Nazi rally is going to be massively outnumbered by the people protesting the rally.

You should try it some place where the Nazis massively outnumber the protesters and the police are inclined to arrest the protesters just because they don’t like left-wing weirdos and because some of the Nazis are their family members and off-duty colleagues. Trust me, it’s a completely different experience.

My first thought was that, considering the state of the Greek economy, it is somewhat surprising that MP beatings aren’t a regular thing.

But, as the wise man said, don’t be a nazi.

I actually rather miss the 7 Nazi’s coming into my little town (Ann Arbor) for their yearly rally. It helped dispel thoughts of their being interesting. It helped prove that they weren’t really anything to be very worried about, since their ability to sway any minds was so obviously pathetic. I could have sold bigotry sprinkled with Nietzsche stuff ten times better than any of them. And we had great fun ridiculing them behind the chain-linked fences installed to stop us from beating them up, and getting rowdy to the point where the police would always have to haul them away for their own protection.
Everybody wearing arm bands with pink triangles or stars of david(even if not gay or jewish) made me feel good. And it was a reminder. It’s like they were providing a service. So a couple of really dumb people being Nazi’s isn’t all bad perhaps.

The Golden Dawn Greek Political Nazi Party website appears to be down now!

Looks like Greece is on a downward spiral – what the hell are the Greek electorate thinking electing uneducated violent Nazis like Kasidiari to Government??
