Flashist Mob
A version of a flash mob where the participants are incorporating fascist slogans, outbursts and chants in their collective performance. British actor Rufus Sewell coined the term on Twitter in September 2020. Sewell was responding to acting colleague Jeffrey Wright's retweet of a video showing a group of people entering a Target store in Florida wearing apparel containing messages in support of then-president Donald Trump, but not wearing the masks mandated by the store during the COVID-19 crisis. The group also encouraged other shoppers to take off their masks in violation of the store's regulations.
A Flashist Mob formed outside City Hall this morning consisting mostly of Neo-Nazis, white supremacists and Donald Trump supporters.
