Comedy Central stages a fake tiki torch white nationalist rally in New York City

  • The scene this morning was apparently filmed for the upcoming Latino-focused sketch series Alternatino. Gothamist's Jen Carlson reports: "A troupe of khaki-wearing white dudes holding tiki torches and chanting 'White Lives Matter,' 'Blood and Soil,' and 'You Will Not Replace Us' are gathered in SoHo's Vesuvio Playground right now (as of noon on Monday). If you happen upon the scene, it's immediately clear this is being filmed for a production, but if you—like some of our colleagues—hear the chanting echoing through the streets as you exit the Spring Street subway station, it's... disturbing."
