This is not a colourised picture taken in 1948. This is a picture of an Amerikkkaner protest today on the 15th of February 2025. These are the so-called victims of genocide. pic.twitter.com/woaPSl24xM

Verdict: False

The image is from South Africa in 2010. it is not Americans in 2025.

Fact Check:

Social media users are claiming to show American protesters doing Nazi salutes. One user wrote, “This is not a colourised picture taken in 1948. This is a picture of an Amerikkkaner protest today on the 15th of February 2025. These are the so-called victims of genocide.”

This claim is false. Through a reverse image search, Check Your Fact found that the image is from the funeral of a white supremacist in South Africa named Eugene Terreblanche. His funeral was in 2010, per the Telegraph.

“Supporters of Eugene Terreblanche salute his coffin as it is driven past,” reads the image caption. (RELATED: No, China Did Not Raise Tariffs On US By 75%)

President Donald Trump has cut off foreign aid to South Africa, saying that the government is targeting white Afrikaners, according to Voice of America.
