A Neo-Nazi rally has taken place in the suburban streets of Orlando

On a Saturday, a group of Nazis, affiliated with the far-right, white supremacist group National Socialist Movement (NSM), have gathered on a busy intersection within the Alafaya/Waterford Lakes area of metro Orlando, about 5-10 minutes south of the University of Central Florida. As expected, they have waved flags and held salutes, that is, if they aren’t spewing hateful rhetoric towards Jews, African Americans, or transgender people. 

"The Jew is the devil"
"Jews rape children and drink their blood"
"Jews brought slaves here"

A horrific antisemitic, anti-black rally is happening right now in Orlando, FL orchestrated by white supremacist Eddie McBride and his group NSM

Apparently there is a Nazi rally going on in Orlando. Let’s see if we can identify some of these guys, shall we? They started by hating on Jews then made monkey noises at a Black lady I was chatting with and by the time I’d left Starbucks they were going for trans people. pic.twitter.com/2clvsC3gHu

People call me crazy when I say Florida is a Nazi state

Heil Hitler for what he did! No more Jew rats! [...] White power!

6 million viewers, Hi!

White power is when you think it, white power is when you live it. You can shove that finger up your Rabbi’s ass! 

He’s a Jew, look at him! Guess where you’re going back to? 

We can tell [you’re a Jew] by how close your eyes are together, you fucking k***. 

Oy vey! I’m gonna go tell somebody about this, let me tell my Rabbi! 

Okedoke! [unclear dialogue] *Possibly linking the Jewish religion to paedophilia. 

Although several cars have passed through this intersection of N Alafaya Trail and Waterford Lakes Parkway, some motorists weren’t having it.

My son just witnessed nazis in Orlando. He said there were dozens hanging on the corner. The guy getting assaulted got out of his car and pushed one of them. @fox35orlando pic.twitter.com/HUvNgI3zwl

Florida governor Ron DeSantis has yet to comment on the Nazi gathering. DeSantis was an advocate for Florida’s HB1, which has stringent, if not farcical, restrictions on “rioting”. 

Why hasn’t @GovRonDeSantis condemned these Nazi rioters in Orlando?

The Governor made it a priority to sign HB1 (Combating Public Disorder). He even said: “it is the strongest anti-rioting, pro-law enforcement piece of legislation in the country”

Why the delay in this case? https://t.co/Iyn5gpqfy5

Sadly, Nazism is not contained in the aforementioned part of Orlando, given that neo-Nazis posed with the sign “Vax the Jews”, along with a white power sign that says “Let’s Go Branon [sic]”, on an overpass bridge near Daryl Carter Parkway and Interstate 4, in close proximity to Walt Disney World and SeaWorld. 

My sister @SpookyTini took this just outside of Disney.

As someone who was raised Jewish, seeing a sign saying vax the Jews, and nazi flags in my home city is fucking terrifying and repulsive. pic.twitter.com/qHhTWb4Xub

And some wise words in light of these events:

There was a Nazi "protest" in Orlando today. Nazis are allowed per "free speech" laws in the US. As a German, let me say this: You can not implement an element (fascism) into a process (democracy) that overtly seeks to end this same process. Otherwise it can and will destroy you.
