We captured the alt-right/ anti-choice attempt to smear the International Women’s Day / Repeal march when shooting crowd footage. We were recording on the other side of the march but in this clip you'll see a photographer in pink taking the sequence of images that later appeared on neo-nazi pages in the ludicrous attempt to smear the campaign.
We are not suggesting the photographer was knowingly involved, quite possibly the neo-nazis stole his images, but we would like to know who he is. We've heard from some of the women tricked by the nazis who are understandably upset. From other sources we believe the guy with the beard distributed the placards, further confirmation of this welcome. We believe we know who his is, again further confirmation welcome.
The attempted smear (the placards have a logo similar to the 1930s British Union of Fascists) isn't worth taking seriously and we spent several hours last night watching the attempts by neo-nazis to circulate it online and failing.
What changed is that this morning actual spokespeople of the anti-choice No campaign also started circulating this crude Neo-nazi smear. Giver the historic links of anti-choice groups with neo-nazis in Ireland and elsewhere we'd like to hear those spokespeople clearly retract their involvement in circulating the smear and clarifying what if any remaining contacts there are with the Neo-nazis.
Neo-nazis like the original nazis are anti-choice extremists who want 'the nation' to control women's bodies to force 'racially pure' women to have more children while sterilising, forcing abortion on and killing other women. That is their history in Nazi Germany & goal today even if they have rebranded as ‘alt-right’.
