More than 1,800 people have “opted a Nazi” in the United States, raising about $140,000 to help the neo-Nazis and white superiorists of “fund their abdicating”.

The campaign, launched by the San Francisco Jewish Lawyers Association (JBASF), invites individuals to provide money for any person who plans to participate in a right-wing rally scheduled for Saturday in the northern city of California.

The money will be donated to the Centre for South Law Power Centre (SPLC), an organisation monitoring hate groups across the country, said “Al Jazeera”, the Periscope broadcast.

The “mination campaign of a Nazi (not true)” is one of several alternative methods that organisations are using to counter the alt-right (acronym of heil-Hiller), a right-wing network that includes white primacy and white nationalists.

The events in Charlottesville of Virginia earlier this month, where members of the Alt-rights clashed with anti-racist protesters and the announcement of a “Rally Freedom” from the right group Patriot Prayer in San Francisco, urged JBASF Cody Harris board to seek a creative way to respond to these groups that have terrorised America recently.

It was thousands of miles away in Germany that he found his inspiration.

A “anists against the Nazis” in the German city of Eisesiel in 2014, for every meter marched by the neonists to be given 10 euros.

For years, Insiedel had become a central point for the Nazis, since it was the burial site of Rudolf Hesss, Adolf Hitler's notorious deputy. Today, it has become an inspiration to cities, such as San Francisco and other countries, as well as organizations throughout the United States.

Harris tells “Alzeera” that he foundunsidel's campaign to be “an effective tactic that channels anxiety and anger... with something productive, creative and useful”.

He adds that it is a good “way to get the perceived energy that the white superiors now feel and turn it against them, mobilize and try to fight”.

The so-called “Rally Freedom” in San Francisco has sparked local and national tensions, including in a general debate on all politicians.

The initial idea of the anti-Nazi campaign “against Nazism” in Turkey came after the city got tired of an annual neo-Nazi march through its streets.

“We were thinking about how to change rules”, explains Fabian Wichmann, one of the organisers.

Another Schmid organiser is also launching a campaign on social media, given a dollar to anti-racist organisations for every “hatwrewrest” reportedly.

Both Achim and Eichmann say they hope that their alternative campaigns, as well as peaceful counterprojects, will help counter the alt-right story./Periscopi/
