One of AfD's posters theyre not even trying to hide it

Isn't the Hitler Salute literally illegal in Germany?

[–] storcholus@feddit.org 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, very much so. But this is supposed to be a roof that is protecting the children. Nothing to see here

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's clearly a Nazi Salute though. I mean fuck, why do I get the feeling the phone number to their head quarters ends in "1488"

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

The swoosh is also the path a hand makes when it does the Nazi salute.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 85 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Bruh wow. I'm pretty white, like sandals and socks white, but this is levels of whiteness that shouldn't even be possible. We're really gonna have to do this shit again, huh?

[–] Ilgaz@lemm.ee 1 points 4 hours ago

Every single day he whines about European population decline. Guess what? He is actually having problems with non white/non Christian population share decline.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 47 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is not whiteness it's racism of the worst kind, and unfortunately most countries have it disregarding color or race.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 43 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, I mean apart from the obvious fucking Nazi bullshit, these people are in daylight and still glowing like exposed reactor cores. Gawd dayum.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Ah OK, I didn't make that connection. That's a very good point.

[–] grandma@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago

Also a pretty suspicious arm angle they got going on there

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's so blatant what the hell?

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They're Nazis and proud of it. So is Elon Musk.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No kidding, it's just, Jesus Christ it's not even a dog whistle at this point it's just barely masked. It's about as subtle as an incorrectly drawn swastika

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think they're past needing to mask it. They have attained critical mass. We're not going to be able to stop it just by pointing out to people that they're supporting Nazis. They know, and that's what they want. We're going to have to fight it, in every country at once.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Yeah, I see you're on Lemmy.ca too, so our deal is going to be PP even if he's not that brazen yet. Really not looking forward to the next decade

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I thought displaying Nazi salutes was illegal in Germany? How the hell do they get away with this?

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 45 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Zey are just making an innocent pantomime house shape… vat is sie probolem?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 11 points 1 day ago

Well, hiding it behind "protecting your children (as a roof would)".
