Additional Information: An online neo-Nazi beauty pageant is being organized and promoted on numerous social media sites. The annual pageant was launched several years ago. The contest is open to women of all ages. In the past, several contestants were arrested on charges related to extremism.
On the social media platform, a graphic of the five contestants was shared by the account hosting the contest.
A contestant from the U.S. wrote: "I entered this pageant because not only do I believe in National Socialism, but I am a dreamer, much like the Fuhrer was. I believe in traditional families and their roles. Unfortunately, in today's society it's becoming increasingly difficult for a woman to keep her place as a hausfrau... The fourteen words ring true in my hears, in my heart, soul and mind.
The British contestant wrote: "Use woman need to stick together, we need to unite as one and show the coloured people of society especially Islamic grooming gangs we are not to be messed with... we need to do this not just for our children but every white child's future and their future children."
One contestant included three photos in her entry, showing a Nazi tattoo on her back. She wrote that the Great War is not yet finished.
The French contestant noted that she is profoundly anti-government.
The Hungarian contestant wrote: "I am a 48-year-old Hungarian woman, a National Socialist."
The U.S. contestant posted a video calling for the release of jailed Austrian neo-Nazi rapper Mr. Bond.
The video description mentioned TekNein, an Ameriican neo-Nazi musician, and the campaign to raise funds for Mr. Bond.
