Federal police in Argentina have seized more than 200 Nazi publications and book covers after arresting the owner of a clandestine printing press run out of a home on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, authorities confirmed Wednesday.
After a two-year investigation, police raided a home in San Isidro, where they found publications bearing swastikas and markings of the SS paramilitary group which played a key role in enforcing Nazi German leader Adolf Hitler's ideologies.
Another address in Beccar was also raided. Police said a 40-year-old man had been taken into custody.
Were astonished with the amount of material, its historic. Its a real printing press disseminating and selling Nazi symbology, books and indoctrination, Federal Police Chief Juan Carlos Hernández, said at a press conference.
He said the "high-quality material" had been openly sold on e-commerce websites "with a high level of purchases and inquiries."

(5,733 posts)in the Appleton,WI area where the Birchers were so strong. Back in the day, maybe still in some areas, you would see guys at flea markets, gun shows, knife shows etc. and they would have a space where they parked their car and opened the trunk and sold/gave away books etc. If the people running the place cracked down they could just slam the trunk and drive away.
If they couldn't get a legit stall at the event then sometimes they would just operate in the parking lot and keep the trunk lid down until they saw someone come along they thought might be a "candidate". That would get them a few more books out there with their hate and that was their point. Keep spreading the word of hate even if slowly. Years back they would park in truck-stop parking lots and work the truckers. On any given day every lot has drivers from all over the country and so they would get the benefit of spreading the words of hate and those books on a wider geographical basis than just working a local event.
This is how they used to work before the internet. A person at a time here and there. Now because of the internet/social media/compliant media like Maher they have constant non-stop exposure to millions. You can be sure that the Charlie Kirk types keep close track of their site activity/subscriptions/fund-raising after each appearance on Maher etc. They keep coming back because it works for them.
