This was the scene in San Carlos de Bariloche, Patagonia when a group of "anti-vaxxers" donned Ku Klux Klan robes at an anti-government demonstration on November 8.

Footage shows three demonstrators in the infamous robes of the white supremacist group while carrying a large syringe adorned with the word "toxic."

The Human Rights Secretariat of Río Negro, in Argentine Patagonia, condemned the expressions of hatred that were observed in the march against the national government.

The trio's actions were said to be in response to Argentina's acquisition of vaccines for COVID-19.

The province's secretary for Human Rights Duillo Minieri stated: "In the context of a democratic society and the current rule of law, public demonstrations of racist, xenophobic and intolerant speeches are inadmissible."

"By virtue of the foregoing, although the defence of the right to demonstration and public protest is inalienable, we must be reflective and extremely careful with the use of images, speeches and symbols that refer to the saddest, most violent and repudiate pages of the history of mankind," said Minieri.
