Английская Википедия:Blood Tribe (neo-Nazi group)
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Infobox militant organization Blood Tribe is a neo-Nazi group founded in 2020 by Christopher Pohlhaus, a former Marine turned tattoo artist. By 2023, members of the group began participating in anti-LGBTQ+ protests and established chapters in the U.S. and Canada. Founded around the same time as the neo-Nazi groups The Base and Nationalist Social Club-131, Blood Tribe has described itself as an "end of the pipeline type group" in terms of its extreme radicalization.
Background
After serving four years in the United States Marine Corps,[1] Pohlhaus (also known as "Hammer") was living in San Antonio, Texas in 2020, working as a tattoo artist. He developed an online following by promoting white supremacy propaganda, producing podcasts and selling gear. He espoused a need to take "a last stand, a righteous war" against those who "call for the destruction of their birthright and posterity." By 2021 Pohlhaus had networked with other white supremacy groups and recruited followers into a membership organization, naming it Blood Tribe.[2]
In May 2022, Pohlhaus bought Шаблон:Convert of land in Springfield, Maine to build an encampment where members could live and train.[3] In October 2023, Pohlhaus sold the property to a Massachusetts man, citing local pressure.[4]
Activities
In March 2023, dozens of Blood Tribe members disrupted a Drag Queen Story Hour near Akron, Ohio, carrying weapons and chanting "Sieg Heil" while giving Nazi salutes.[5] In May 2023, a few dozen Blood Tribe members demonstrated outside a drag event in Columbus, Ohio. Dressed in red, with most wearing black face masks and sunglasses, they carried a black flag with a swastika and a banner reading "there will be blood." They chanted slogans such as "no transgenders on our streets" and something with the phrase "under the Aryan sun."[6] Blood Tribe was joined by members of Nationalist Social Club-131 at both demonstrations.[1]
On September 2, 2023, members of the antisemitic hate group Goyim Defense League joined Blood Tribe members for a public demonstration in Altamonte Springs, Florida, near Orlando. A few dozen demonstrators participated in what they called the "March of the Redshirts," waving swastika flags, performing Nazi salutes and shouting "Heil Hitler."[7][8]
By August 2023, some Maine officials were considering prohibiting militia training camps, which raised free speech issues. State senator Joe Baldacci drafted a bill to criminalize offering training in firearms, explosives or other tactics with the intent of causing a "civil disorder."[9]
