Antisemitic group hangs banner supporting Kanye West over Los Angeles highway

An antisemitic and white supremacist group unfurled a banner above a busy Los Angeles freeway on Saturday reading “Kanye is right about the Jews” following the rapper’s widely-condemned antisemitic remarks.

The group responsible for the banners above Interstate 405 appears to be the Goyim Defense League, a loose network of virulently antisemitic conspiracy theorists, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

A group also was photographed raising their arms in a Nazi salute above the banners.

Its supporters are responsible for spreading dozens of antisemitic messages across the US while engaging in offensive stunts targeting Jewish people, according to the ADL.

1. Deplorable.

Enough said.

[EYESORE 9001]

2. Where were the police?

Highway overpass is no place for political rally. Please tell me somebody went to jail for putting this little fete together. I will note that it’s highly provocative - their goal all along.

[Aristus]

3. Odds are pretty good those were off-duty cops.

Pigs...

[EYESORE 9001]

4. Yep. That's a fair assumption alright.

[EYESORE 9001]

5. Why aren't highway overpasses secured better than that

So many opportunities for mayhem. I don’t put anything past these fuckers.

7. Can someone tell this old Texas lady why this is even a thing. How are Jews harming anyone, much

less these privileged white people or even anyone?

[NullTuples]

8. How are Black, trans, gay, Mexican or Asian people harming anyone?

This is what they do. They choose minorities b/c when it comes down to it, they know they have enough white Christians to back them up.

It's a form of bullying. Having power over others makes them feel good. You'd think psych would have a classification for it, a named disorder, but too much of our modern capitalistic society is built on it.

[efhmc]

10. Sadly, I might see how some white people might see color as a negative thing but still do not

understand the Jewish thing.

[NullTuples]

11. Please explain?

[efhmc]

13. Because in many part/most parts of the south they see POC daily so they can easily blame them for

their immediate troubles but most of us have never encountered a Jewish person so they see the NT attack on Jesus by the Jews as truth although Jesus was crucified in Jerusalem sometime around 30 CE.1 and Pontius Pilate then serving as the Roman prefect (or governor) of Judaea — both presided over the trial of Jesus and gave the order for his crucifixion.

9. That's the age old, unanswered question.

[efhmc]

12. Is this a "Christian" thing. I remember a supposed Christian person making an antisemitic

remark to me and I told her that Jesus was a Jew. She was astonished. These people are idiots. Few of them have ever read anything. especially the Bible.

28. It is a long (over 2000 years long) history.

Basically, one of the main reasons Jews are a primary, and easy, target, is because they are always an "other", but what makes us more dangerous in the eyes of bigots, is many of us look like they do. We often started our own businesses when denied access to mainstream society and did well. Many Jews, not all, obviously, lean to more liberal social issues and tend to be ahead of the curve with other minorities' rights; this pisses off the establishment. Some of the hate is simply ignorance of the past, bad relationships of a few with other minorities, and of course, there is the "dead Jesus" thing.

Again, that is a BRIEF history.

[efhmc]

30. Thank you.

[jgmiller]

14. There is a reading and then there is comprehension

Most of the extremist Christians read the bible but they only comprehend it in the way they've been told to. They ignore the parts that don't fit their narrative or they twist it to fit. The same thing happens with the Quran, many of the things extremist Muslims believe aren't in there yet they've had the words twisted the same as the bible.

[efhmc]

15. Sadly, so true.

[JI7]

24. Actually, the bad things are in both. Being a certain religion doesn't make

anyone a good person.

[efhmc]

26. Agree.

[SouthernDem4ever]

16. Well since Kanye bought parler

does that make him a white supremacist? The dudes on the bridge sure think so.

[Raster]

27. Poor ConYe thinks his money and "reputation" will carry him through.

Silly Black Man, haters gonna hate. And once they run out of the convenient victims -low hanging fruit- then they'll turn gaze upwards to the not quite as accessible pickings. But money and power aside, loaded onto a boxcar is loaded onto a boxcar.

[CaptainTruth]

17. Disgusting.

Par for the course for the Radical Right, blaming others for their problems. Truly sad.

[IcyPeas]

18. Kanye "Ye" did an interview with Chris Cuomo. he gets pissed off

when Cuomo called him Kanye. He said his name is Ye. He said people can say formerly known as Kanye West. This happened a few times in the interview. It really pissed him off. it also really pissed him off when Cuomo interrupts him.

they discussed Kanye's opinion about Jews/record producers. He calls them "the jewish underground media mafia"

just in case anyone wants to see this:

19. White supremacist nazis can have him

since he's a black white supremacist and completely lost his mind.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

20. These neo-Nazis are scary

[mahina]

21. I was told in 2003 that is a federal offense.

The context was nonviolent resistance training for anti Iraq war protests. Not so, DU?

Those people are anti-American and have earned contempt by their actions. Also I have to acknowledge that they may help us get a few votes that we may not have gotten before. I don’t know how to think about those evils against that good, especially as it relates to the future. I’m going to have to give this some thought.

They definitely should be severely punished.

To those who assert that those are off duty cops, I can’t go there with you.

22. Wow, Little Nazis offering up Nazi salutes in LA

To a Blackman. That is very bizzare considering the Nazi ideology is all about the superiority of the Aryan race and the inferiority of all other races, especially nonwhite races and Jews. Hence the genocide.

My father who fought in WWII, said the only good Nazi was a dead Nazi. So there are good Nazis, but they are all dead.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

23. my fellow Jews should never spend so much as a nickel on this Jew-hater again...

25. KTLA finally posted about this.

https://ktla.com/news/local-news/anti-semitic-media-seen-throughout-los-angeles/

Our local Los Angeles TV station, KTLA, has gotten a lot more conservative since bought out by Nexstar Media Group, based near Dallas.

29. His people.

31. On a side note, I find it interesting that *ssholes like the banner boys certainly r/o

love their masks when they aren't associated with Covid-19 prophylaxis. Remember all the talk about how "CO2 will build up and people will die from wearing masks"? Morons.
