A neo-Nazi “active club” counts several current and former members of the United States military as its members, the Guardian has learned, including a lance corporal machine gunner currently in detention on insubordination charges and a former US Marine Corps staff sergeant who was booted from the service for stealing large quantities of ammunition.

They were easy to spot because of their red hats.
I mean I use fedora I’m not a Nazi…
I was hoping there would be less low effort jokes on the fediverse. Womp Womp.
It’s not a joke.
OK, so the “Current” member of the armed forces is only current because in the military you need to be active duty in order to be in detention.
I’m a little confused as to the wording here. Typically detention is in the brig and if they are in the brig regardless of what rank they went in as they are busted down to private.
I understand artistic liberty but it seems they are intentionally stretching this. And i while heartedly understand that there could be some active duty Marines that are neo nazi’s. The examples given are a stretch to me.
It says further down in the article that he was busted down to private and is in the brig for 11 months. I suspect that most people don’t understand how the military ranking systems work anyhow, so it really means very little to most people, until you throw around words like general or commandant.

Why would anyone be surprised that Jerry Lee who flew halfway round the world on his 18th birthday to kill brown people might be racist.
Isn’t Lance Corporal the lowest rank one can have in the US Marine Corps? The headline makes it sound like its a systemic issue, but to me, it just seems like some Marines straight out of training are nut jobs.
I could be wrong though
Lance Corporal is the third rank from the bottom (E-3). It’s still very low but Private (E-1) and Private First Class (E-2) are lower.
A valid reason to invade the US, according to some
Ukraine literally had Nazi rallies out in the open and endorsed by the state
It’s completely different
they even brought a flag to the Senate with an SS symbol on it
