48-year-old Jason Brown was arrested Tuesday for violating state law when he hung banners with Nazi messaging off an I-4 overpass.

Brown's own demonstration contained messaging endorsing DeSantis' 2024 presidential bid.

This neo-nazi trash is a perfect example of the typical DeSantis supporter.

When the actual Nazis support you, and you don't say "Fuck off, Nazis" out loud in public, your silence is deafening.

A closer analogy to situations like this one is:

Nazis have seated themselves at your table. You have some options, from best to worst (maybe not the first one, but that's debatable).

  • Kill them.
  • Actively remove them from your table.
  • Actively demand their departure.
  • Argue with them.
  • Move to a different table.
  • Ignore them. <<< You are here
  • Be civil to them.
  • Openly engage kindly with them.
  • Welcome and align with them.

I liked this part best:

Ironically, it was a law signed by DeSantis which puts Brown behind bars.

$5 DeSantis pardons him with some bullshit "freedom of speech" argument

It's absurd that nazi-ism isn't outlawed in every ex-allied country in the world

Me: Can we do something about the Nazis?

Them: Now, now, we can't make ideas illegal even if they're morally detestable. That would be quite a slippery slope. After all, imagine what it would be like if government had that power and someone who disagreed with you was in charge.

Me: Well that's a relief, I can feel comfortable knowing that my rights are protected even as a {any ideology left of Reagan}.

Them: cocks shotgun Don't push it...

I hate this idea that all views must be tolerated. Besides, Nazism has had its say, and we've all agreed it should be stamped out. Fuck anyone who waves a Nazi flag, I don't wanna hear anything they have to say.

The one downvote on this comment should own it publicly. Come on, stand up and be counted you fucking Free Speech Warrior(tm)

Vax the Jews? Well, that's new.

Yeah, this could be a whole theme, giving nice things they don't like to nice people they don't like: Target gift cards for drag queens, banned books for migrant children, electric cars for teachers, etc.

Presumably in these chucklefucks’ worldview, there’s no difference between a gas chamber and a vaccination centre.

Way to go, dude! Fuck those Nazi

banner over I-4

Oh...

Oh seriously fuck that guy. Throw the fucking book at him.

Oh wait, it's Florida. DeSantis will probably give him a job.

Earlier this year, Governor Ron DeSantis signed House Bill 269, which includes provisions that prohibit individuals from displaying or projecting images onto a building, structure, or property without permission.
