The global repercussions from the 2008 recession are still causing nationalistic zealotry in many countries, which is causing depressed people to fall back on ethno-supremacist ideologies and ethnic scapegoating. The rise of the Furry Raiders is definitely part of that story like other similar groups. Admittedly, the Nazi-like armbands is an extreme form of expression that probably wouldn't have arisen outside of the U.S. in today's world.
