some guy, somewhere, slaps some patch on and no idea who this guy is, or where.
Critical thinking people? what a stupid thread. Strangely, some of the de-nazification workers have nazi tatoos, the ultimate paradox. |

What does it mean to them and what's their reasoning? They is plenty of things used today and words that groups say that have terrible meanings in history but its widely accepted as normal and okay.

Always amazes me that people throw stuff out like this, and have never researched into our own revolutionary war.
Murders, rapes, tortures, anything and everything you can imagine was committed by US troops against loyalists during our own revolutionary war. Did that make the right not honorable? Absolutely not. Did it take away from our efforts? I'm sure a bit, but then if you went around talking about it, you might be charged for treason. But then again, this is what happens when people on social media LOVE to spout off about stuff they can't critically think about. |

I don't follow the Ukraine shit much as I really don't give two shits about either of their governments. Feel bad for the folks dying for it and , but just like a number of wars across our globe and history , this one doesn't matter much to me.
Anyway , the optics are not so hot , but I can understand using the symbols to a degree. What's weird though is the Germans never treated the Ukrainians all that hot either. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Our platoon sigil was a totemkopf. Many units did similar things. Some of our guys got that tattooed on them. And no one in SoCal ever said a word about them, then. I've never seen the crossed Stielhandgranate before though. Ironically the death heads insignia isnt a nazi emblem and originated with the Prussians and saw use during WW1 on many uniforms in some units. Nothing associated with ideology, racism or anything else as it was used later by the SS. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Remember when USMC Scout Snipers were all about sporting SS runes on tattoos, patches, flags, challenge coins, etc etc? Pepper Ridge Farms remembers. My USMC unit during Desert Storm adopted a modified Afrika Corps design. Instead of a swastika and a palm tree, it was an EGA and a palm tree. Someone made stencils and we marked tanks and humvees with it. I never heard any beef about it until after I got out. Apparently the USMC got it's panties in a wad over it. So in true E-4 mafia form, I got a tattoo of it as a final fuck you to the Suck. |

WWII you have Stalin on one side of you, who starved about 6 million of you to death, and Hitler on the other side. Hitler wants to kill Stalin.
Do the math. funny thing happened: one group fought along side the Russians, another along side the Germans, and a third group fought against both. Ukraine is complicated because of this. IDGAF what patches anybody wears. I just want Russia to get its ass kicked. |
