Yes there are some still roaming in Deutschland. I won't talk about the ones we have back home in Portugal or France, as I consider them even more stupid than the ones living here. It makes no sense for me to defend the arian theory of German pure Blood being someone from another country. Surely a too difficult task for those brains. Instead, I'll talk about an anachronism I saw last Friday at a concert with the brazilian band Sepultura in Erfurt (yes they did came to play in Centrum!). Sepultura, two more bands from the US and one from Spain came along in a a very Worldwide concert.
As from another time and space a typical neo-nazi was in the middle of the crowd. He wouldn't have been spotted easily if it wasn't for the red flashy t-shirt proudly announcing Arian Deutschland something. Was he looking for trouble or even, paradoxically, wanted to just listen to some non-aric music? I am not sure, but what I am sure of is that he was stupid. Most of them are anyway. But this one won the Oscar for it. Or Should I say the Berlin Bear? I have big difficulties understanding the fact that a follower of the Nazi doctrine would be paying twentyfive euros to go to a concert full of Ausländer bands. What is the point of being Ultra-Nationalist when you do or join something foreigner related. Like neo-nazis riding Harley's (after all it was born in the US), or International (yeah, true!) Neo-Nazis meeting in Lisbon or other cities, or using clothes made in Pakistan or wherever else than in Germany. I can understand pride and the feeling of belonging proudly to a specific nation as a sociological need. As long as other cultures could be seen from the same perspective not depreciating others. But all the hatred around rejecting all that is not "national", not recognizing the value and importance of diversity, is unnatural.
When the Spanish Band Hamlet finished, he shouted the already classic "Auslander Raus!" being totally ignored by all the other fans around. In the perfect indifference he searched for some reaction whom never came. Germans and non Germans around were just enjoying the music with beer or some others alcoholic beverages not providing to this obviously confused man the attention he wanted. Hopefully he wasn't drunk enough to pick up a fight so he kept on going around drinking beer and posing proudly with his red T-shirt. If this, of those of his kind are the "White-pride", well it sucks to be white.
