Frankly, they have to be so obtuse it could be anything. At first look it looked like an 80's themed Rush sticker. I mean, is Rush even alive anymore, let alone touring?

It's got so little information on it it could be from a dozen groups, if not hundreds. "Rise up" isn't exactly a trade marked phrase.

So the guys printing these up at Kinko's and pasting them everywhere aren't exactly getting any sort of message across, except to the mouth breathers who already know the code, so this is so much mental static that's gonna get ignored.

"Rise Up" is the anarchist sticker. The sticker it's covering which barely says "United" is the Patriot Front fascist sticker.

You're good!

From what I remember just from tearing down a similar sticker at the mall it says "United We Stand" with a hand holding a bundle of arrows - which is a common symbol used by Fascists (altho not explicitly a fascist symbol) and then it has their website url at the bottom as always.

I also thought this was the nazi sticker, though I got a late 80s Christian rock vibe from it rather than Rush (I thought it said "risen" in old eighties pop font).
