Literally, nothing has changed. Children were attending these events before it became a thing.
 

And yes, Americans did actually become more intolerant because that was the political thing they were being asked to do on the right

 

I didn’t agree with the BLM riots that caused all that damage but the right absolutely has become the party of intolerance and hate

 

 

 

Wrong, the left just became more outrageous and radical. We are tolerant people but there are limits. Tolerance is not the same as support or celebration.

Ask ChiGoose where the Nazi churches are.  Chicago should be crawling with them as he see Nazis all over town. Or ask the Blues Brothers, they run into them (literally) all the time.

All the churches flying Nazi flags are most likely nestled along the hiking trails they like to frequent. I hear they also goose-step down Main Street Anytown, USA so there could be some Nazi churches there as well. With the presence of these newfangled, so-called “smart phones” with cameras in them, someone must have a picture.

I might have to retract that one

Should this prove to be the case it will be a feather in your cap and you will have justly earned the moniker of The Anti-Tiberius. So moving forward you’ll have that going for you.

There are in fact churches in the country that have Nazi flags. Did you not know this?

They claim tax exemptions, just like regular other churches do

 

I'm not aware of instances where Nazi flags were flown but you're not terribly off:

 

Catholic bishops denounce racism but reject Confederate flag, nooses and swastikas as hate symbols

American Christianity’s White-Supremacy Problem

  • In a 2019 nationwide survey, eighty-six per cent of white evangelical Protestants and seventy per cent of both white mainline Protestants and white Catholics said that the “Confederate flag is more a symbol of Southern pride than of racism”; nearly two-thirds of white Christians over all said that killings of African-American men by the police are isolated incidents rather than part of a broader pattern of mistreatment; and more than six in ten white Christians disagreed with the statement that “generations of slavery and discrimination have created conditions that make it difficult for blacks to work their way out of the lower class.”

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH HAS A VISIBLE WHITE-POWER FACTION

  • The decision to avoid condemning swastikas, nooses, and Confederate flags would be troubling under any circumstances. But this moral failure is compounded by the fact that Catholics are among the most integral groups that rally behind these symbols. From the highest reaches of government to the lowest depths of social media, many members of hate groups and politicians who model their talking points are part of the bishops’ flock.
  • Catholics not only contributed to the platform for the so-called alt-righters who terrorized Charlottesville and killed Heather Heyer but are leaders and even founders of the most dangerous neo-Nazi groups in existence.
  • The Catholic Church, once persecuted by the Ku Klux Klan, today has a visible white-power faction. As long as the bishops actively refuse to condemn its banners, they give white supremacists space to embrace their anti-Black and anti-Semitic work free of religious dissonance.
