Fact-checking Fascism: Axios Platforms Violent Biker Gang Over Veterans Day
Posted in Creative Commons, Journalism, and Occupy Wall Street
Over 5 years since the election of Donald Trump and the rise of the powerful white supremacist movement he empowered, the mainstream media still struggles to fact-check fascists.
It always interests me which organizations get the benefit of the doubt from the mainstream media.
I (and many others) have written about how the mainstream media tends to take the words of police at face value. Reporters often use whatever language makes police seem blameless after violent interactions.
Just like cops, right-wing fascists frequently get platformed by reporters who fail to ask vital questions.
Which brings us to an article by Asher Price, an Austin reporter for Axios.
Nazis Out of Austin Banner Drop

Over the past week and a half, a crew of swastika-wearing, anti-vaccine literature distributing nazis have caroused around Austin with hardly a care in the…
A friend that lives in Portland posted on his Facebook about the latest spasm of white supremacist violence that took place there.
Someone that I’ve a bunch of mutuals in common with responded. A sort-of-smug comment to the effect of “thank goodness we ran those people out of Austin, Texas!” And I’ll be honest, that comment shocked me: we did what?

Let me start by saying thank you for supporting me. The last couple of months have been challenging, and the next few probably won’t be a whole lot easier. I’m looking for work, dealing with the slow collapse of the hemp industry, and coping with some significant health problems in my family.
So that’s why I’m assembling a cookbook zine. It’s called Soup For Our Families: An Antifascist Cookbook, and I’ll be collecting recipes over the next month. That’s right, actual food recipes — and not just soup, I’m collecting food and drink from every category from apps to desserts. I want to showcase the wide range of who we are, using food as a window. The only rule is the recipes should come from antifascist/antiracist people or groups.
