On Sunday, a Twitter user named @bigotbasher shared a photo of a man riding a bus in Seattle while wearing a swastika armband.

Later, he received a text from someone saying the nazi was spotted out and about around town.

Within 90 minutes of his initial tweet, video of the man getting punched and knocked out hit the Internet.
Here’s how it all went down:
Someone texted the user and said the nazi was spotted in downtown Seattle.
Someone else independently tweeted that they saw the swastika-wearing man.
NO NO NO Downtown #Seattle rn, man walking around w/ RED SWASTIKA armband yelling at passersby #WTF #notnormal @realDonaldTrump on you dude

Then, someone on Facebook shared a photo with the caption: ‘Just watched a nazi get knocked the f*ck out.’
The Facebook user told Buzzfeed how he came across the altercation:
“I literally just got off a bus and was walking to a movie and saw some guy being obnoxious up the way. Which I’m used to in downtown Seattle, but then I saw the Nazi armband and realize we are dealing with a guy a little more than just obnoxious,” Duff said. “I had eaten over 800mg of THC and was way too high for confrontation so I just held back with two other passersby to watch what would unfold.”
And there you have it. Word is prior to his photo being shared, the nazi was harassing Black people on the train. He deserved it.
