Two Canberrans who pulled down a string of Neo-Nazi stickers in the city centre yesterday say they are shocked and appalled to have found the propaganda.
Dave McCarthy was walking past the Canberra Theatre yesterday morning when he saw a sticker promoting the Hitler Youth stuck to the building, before finding another on the Canberra Museum and Gallery sign.
He ripped both stickers off.
"It's definitely the first time I've seen a group that forward with their straight up Nazism."
Fearing there could me more around the city, Mr McCarthy shared a Facebook post urging fellow Canberrans to destroy any other stickers they come across.
In response, his friend Augustine Bamberry went searching in the afternoon and tore down a few more on poles along City Walk and Ainslie Place.

"It just makes me angry because Nazis have no place in Canberra, Australia or anywhere else," Mr Bamberry said.
One comment on the Facebook post about the propaganda warned people that some of them were found to have concealed razorblades underneath them.
A similar photo being shared on social media included the words "use an implement like a boot or a knife to scrape them off".
But both Mr McCarthy and Mr Bamberry said they found no razor blades under the stickers they tore down.
'Hitler you've been waiting for'

The stickers purported to be from the Neo-Nazi group "Antipodean Resistance", which has previously described itself as "the Hitler you've been waiting for".
Antipodean Resistance said it was a "youth organisation" which saw "this country for what it is: terminally ill".
It came to the attention of authorities through its attempts to influence the debate around the same-sex marriage postal vote, with posters linking gay marriage to paedophilia.
It has also been criticised for plastering posters on the campuses of Australian universities.
The group claims its chapters have held radicalisation camps in the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria, and near Mount Beerburrum on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
ACT Policing has been contacted for comment.”
