(45,851 posts)The first time an image of an interesting bike led me to Stormfront I was shocked and I though I'd somehow clicked on something I didn't mean to , since then I've become more cautious about clicking on Google image links and I've found a lot more e-bike links that lead there..
I have no idea what's going on with this, it seems strange and antithetical to right wing ideology..

(53,475 posts)The Southern Poverty Law Center, a group that has studied hate crimes for decades, reported Monday that Page was a frustrated neo-Nazi who had been the leader of a racist white-power band known as End Apathy.
Heidi Beirich, director of the center's intelligence project, said her group had been tracking Page since 2000, when he tried to purchase goods from the National Alliance, a well-known hate group.
...
Beirich said there was "no question" Page was an ardent follower and believer in the white supremacist movement. She said her center had evidence that he attended "hate events" around the country.
Jeffrey Imm, who heads R.E.A.L., said in an interview Monday that someone based in Milwaukee using the name "End Apathy" began posting on the website in February 2008. Additionally, appearances by Page's band were promoted on the Stormfront site, including a white supremacist gathering in March 2012 in Richmond, Va.
And the Stormfront entry. "Welcome white racialists."

The tattoo said, "9/11" and "had a bunch of descriptions and stuff," Young tells the paper.
