Support NeoGAF

[fluffydelusions]

(CNN) Major cities across the country are bracing for an unusual wave of far-right rallies in the coming days.

The largest scheduled rally is the "March on Google," which will take place in nine major US cities Saturday. The aim is to protest the firing of Google employee James Damore over a controversial memo he wrote about the company's diversity policies. Damore has said he doesn't support the "alt-right," and will "likely not" participate.

The "March on Google" rallies are scheduled to take place at these Google locations around the country:

Atlanta
Austin
Boston
Los Angeles
Mountain View, California
New York
Pittsburgh
Seattle
Washington, D.C.

Some alt-right organizations are scheduled to lead more localized demonstrations.

Boston is preparing for a rally from alt-right group Boston Free Speech on Saturday. The city mayor has said the city won't tolerate racism, bigotry, and violence.
San Francisco is preparing for two rallies August 26 and August 27. Mayor Edwin Lee said the city can't condone a rally that incites hate. "I ask that when they chant of hate, San Francisco chants of love. When they talk of despair, San Francisco talks about hope."

[GulAtiCa]

Time to counter-protest these assholes!

 

[Toki767]

Curious how many people are eve going to be attending these things. Particularly in the Bay Area.

 

[Gnome Scat]

Fuck Nazis and fuck Trump.

Stay safe, "alt-left."

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Seattle and LA huh?

Well, good luck. Those places have never had a leftist presence or counter protests, after all

 

[Sylas]

Lol. Good luck pulling that shit in New York.

 

[shandy706]

Who's up for a Blues Brothers cosplay?

Edit* Having a Nazi rally in some of these Cities sounds like a bad idea for the rally members.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

The 'March on Google' is god damn ironic because YouTube has allowed these dipshits to survive for so long.

 

[Fermbiz]

We must plan 10!

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

Hate speech is unconstitutional isnt it? Why are the states allowing this?

Can ISIS have a rally too???

 

[Lightning_Roller]

Time to counter-protest these assholes!

Agreed. Stay safe, everyone.

 

[KingV]

Curious how many people are eve going to be attending these things. Particularly in the Bay Area.

Yeah, this is not a good list of cities for people to walk around with Nazi Regalia. I expect these to either be like a dozen people each or have a ton of arrests.

Good News: None anywhere near me
Bad News: I don't get the chance to counter-protest these assholes

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Oh good, one near me. I'll be more than happy to tell Nazis how I feel about them to their face.

 

[AppleMIX]

Hate speech is unconstitutional isnt it? Why are the states allowing this?

No hate speech is protected by the first amendment.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Hate speech is unconstitutional isnt it? Why are the states allowing this?

Can ISIS have a rally too???

Hate speech isn't unconstitutional

 

[Stabby McSter]

gross

i'm surprised and not surprised at the same time that there's a rally in mountain view :\

 

[SolidSnakex]

Curious how many people are eve going to be attending these things. Particularly in the Bay Area.

They're always relatively small compared to the counter-protestors that show up. These will be even smaller since they're spreading it across the country instead of one concentrated area like with Charlottesville.

 

[Tagyhag]

Lol coming to LA? Good luck boys. Your numbers might be thinner when the day ends.

 

[CountAntonius]

We are at a boiling point. If these marches happen I fear for what may ensue.

 

[It's Reyn Time!]

Fuck Nazis and fuck Trump.

Stay safe, "alt-left."

Please don't do this, not even sarcastically. We don't want that shit catching on.

 

[wumster3000]

Seattle and LA huh?

Well, good luck.

Gaf, avoid the ones in NY, LA and ATL. Please do this. The counter protesters are not going to want to hear that mess in these cities.

 

[neorej]

Remember to do the American thing and punch a Nazi.

 

[Ottaro]

I checked the Austin event page for this on facebook, and there are a whopping four people going. :lol

 

[Diancecht]

Bit of an off the topic question, but I've been wondering as a european: Which city (or state?) in the us the most left leaning, open to refugees, PoC and muslims?

 

[Netherscourge]

Be safe and careful if you counter-protest peeps!

I would not go anywhere alone in those areas. Those crazy fuckers are probably all going to be armed and ready to murder more people.

 

[FTF]

Lol. Good luck pulling that shit in New York.

Seriously. Where the fuck in NY is this taking place? I want to go and protest. Fuck these people.

 

[captmcblack]

Invariably there'll be anarchist violence in opposition to, and protest of, the Nazi/KKK/nationalist marching.

...which sucks because now they'll just talk about the evil liberal "both sides" alt-left instead of the fact that Nazis/KKK/nationalists are walking around unabated, emboldened and proud to agitate.

Anyway, I hope NYC is ready to shut this shit down. The city won't play that fascist bullshit.

 

[Kyzer]

This might be a dangerous weekend...


There will probably be decoy plants acting violent in DC

 

[Lightning_Roller]

Remember to do the American thing and punch a Nazi.

It IS the America way.....

 

[Advocatus Diaboli]

The protests were canceled.

See: http://www.businessinsider.com/marc...celled-alleged-alt-left-terror-threats-2017-8.

Fucking snowflakes.

 

[Lebron]

Austin? Lol good luck with that

 

[rawd]

Austin
Boston

Blaustin

 

[kris.]

Lol. Good luck with that.

 

[Whizkid7]

New York? I dare these monsters to step foot on my turf. I'll go Captain America (the original, not the current Nazi one) on 'em.

EDIT:

The protests were canceled.

See: http://www.businessinsider.com/marc...celled-alleged-alt-left-terror-threats-2017-8.

Fucking snowflakes.

Thank god. Though I'm actually a little disappointed I won't get to punch a Nazi now.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Be safe. they have every intention of increasing the violence going forward.

 

[DrFunk]

Bring that shit to South Atlanta and see what happens

 

[ronco2000]

So basically someone is going to get killed this weekend.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Remember your permits, counter protesters!!

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

The protests were canceled.

Fucking snowflakes.

Oh wow.

 

[Tinfoilhatsron]

In Atlanta?

HAHAHAHAHA

I'd like to see the Nazi fucks try. It ain't happening.

They'll likely just fuck up traffic. Again.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

The protests were canceled.

See: http://www.businessinsider.com/marc...celled-alleged-alt-left-terror-threats-2017-8.

Fucking snowflakes.

Good. I'm sure a large neo-Nazi rally in a city like LA would end up with a lot of injuries, and they could use that to play nonsense both sides arguments.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Nazis in New York... This is some parallel universe shit.

 

[AlphaDump]

Make sure to get all their faces on camera. Every one of them.

 

[tomtom94]

Damore has said he doesn't support the "alt-right," and will "likely not" participate.

Revisionist bollocks, he went straight to their Youtube channels for victim monies and only backtracked because of what happened at the weekend.

 

[whyamihere]

lol, good luck marching in Venice.

 

[Vyrance]

None of them will make it out of Atlanta

 

[Count Dookkake]

The protests were canceled.

See: http://www.businessinsider.com/marc...celled-alleged-alt-left-terror-threats-2017-8.

Fucking snowflakes.

More like nein rallies.

 

[sturgboski]

The protests were canceled.

"Citizen participants"? These disgusting pieces of shit shouldn't be citizens anywhere. They should have less rights than animals do.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

Seriously. Where the fuck in NY is this taking place? I want to go and protest. Fuck these people.

Chelsea, 16th-18th & 8th Ave where the large Google building is.

Bit of an off the topic question, but I've been wondering as a european: Which city (or state?) in the us the most left leaning, open to refugees, PoC and muslims?

Hard to say because of the size of some states. California and New York are portrayed as being liberal, but that's only a small segment of a very large state.
