What is energy?

When climate disaster strikes, usually nobody wins. Far-right groups, however, have been determined to land new recruits by masquerading as caring and supportive citizens.
The word ‘conniving’ needs updating in the dictionary with some examples we’re about to hit on here.
Following a severe storm which swept through Vermont last month, several communities were upended by flooding and destruction. With residents left feeling downtrodden and plucking through wreckage, who came to save the day?
Neo-Nazis, of course. [Wait… what?]
The group of middle-age men, who call themselves PINE (The People’s Initiative of New England) turned out in numbers to aid clean-up efforts, clear debris from streets, and pass out bottled water. Admirable stuff.
At face value, one would naturally take the outfit for upstanding, selfless citizens. The reality, however, paints a far bleaker picture.
PINE is the new, less abrasive front for NSC-131 – a Neo Nazi group formed in New England during 2019 – whose members openly tout the swastika, push fascist ideals, and throw up Hitler salutes at public appearances.
During a recent public manifesto, PINE declared that its efforts to turn New England into its own white ‘ethno state’ will only be achievable if local support is drummed up through ‘activism and community outreach,’ hence the pivot to Duke of Edenborough-style altruism.
