Is there really nothing that can be legally done about this?

They're not breaking any laws (so far as I'm aware), just exercising their First Amendment rights. What's happened is emboldening Nazis over the last decade or so has made it so they're no longer scared they'll get their asses kicked for doing it. The scuttlebutt I've picked up on is that they basically coordinate it like a flash mob over Signal, do their thing, and then scamper off.
 
Name and shame. Take pictures, post far and wide to ID them, report to employers etc.

This is actually the perfect job for a drone, fly along the outside of the fence and just pause in front of every face.

No risk of any unnecessary confrontation or anyone getting hurt in the moment.
 
The irony of Nazi's is that they want to cleanse the earth of "inferior" people but just end up getting cleansed themselves.
 
Oh those Republicans have been all over Florida lately. Even holding DeSantis signs They always wear masks though that's how brave they are, You know, just in case they get identified.

I don't think a lot of people realize how much like mid-stage Nazis is the Republican party is today.

This is how Nazis come to power, people have no freaking clue what's going on

Maybe my history is rusty, but isn't the goal "blonde hair & blue eyes"? What's the line of thinking behind not fitting into that image?

Well those were the original German Nazis and that fit their demographic. Our current American Nazi GQP party is just about white supremacy in general. As long as your white, Christian, straight, and a republican, you're good. These are our Nazis.

We need to recognize them, learn them, and prepare to defend all that is decent against them.

Not like how the Germans failed to. But right now we're trending like the Germans.

They were wearing masks, except for the one with all the face tattoos.

Are we forgetting that Hitler himself didn't fit his own criteria? They're willing to baby step to get there, the same as last time. First you get rid of the queers, that's the easiest place to start, then you step up to the next level of undesireables.

Well, apparently there is... although I think DeSantis may have had a different sort of protestor in mind when he signed the bill. Busted for lack of a permit to hang their banners.

"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."

Well, most of the top Nazis were a very long way from fitting the physical criteria valorised by their own ideology.

The Nazi attitude to gays seemed to be quite flexible - it seems to have been something that you could get away with as long as you stayed ideologically in line and were useful to the Nazi Party. But it could always be used against you if you fell foul of any internal dispute, whereupon it would suddenly be remembered that you were a 'deviant'.
