Torch-bearing white nationalists led by racist "alt-right" figure Richard Spencer once again marched in Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend, in a repeat of their appearance on August 11, when a similar polo-shirt-bedecked crowd carried tiki torches to the University of Virginia, chanting a variety of slogans and far-right catchphrases.

"You Will Not Replace Us!" they shouted in unison Saturday. Later, they sang a rendition of the adopted Confederate anthem, "Dixie," and also chanted, "Russia is Our Friend!" and "The South Will Rise Again!"

The chants even included an odd attack on a fantasy fiction character: "Harry Potter is Not Real!"
