Neo-Nazis from U.S. and Europe build far-right links at concerts in Germany.
Once inside the event in Themar, attendees, including a number of Americans like Keith, were greeted by Patrick Schroeder, who runs a weekly internet TV show espousing far-right views. He handed them free red baseball caps emblazoned with “MGHA,” shortform for “Make Germany Hate Again.” They mimick the"Make America Great Again" hats used to promote Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
While it is unclear how many Americans attend events like the one in Themar,"there's a great deal of cross-pollination" between the far right in Europe and the U.S., said Greenblatt. Greenblatt said there was a"through line" between a series of atrocities linked to attackers inspired by far-right thinking, including Anders Breivik, now 40, who killed 77 people in Norway's worst terrorist attack in July 2011.
In March 2019, a man walked into two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, killing 59 people as he livestreamed the attack on Facebook. He referred to Breivik, Roof and Bissonnette in his writings.
Keith said he did not believe that Trump was a white nationalist, although he said the U.S. president was"definitely white" and"definitely a nationalist."
