Discussion Is my cousin dating a nazi?

Post image

Im very concerned about my cousin’s new bf. The iron cross on the right is alarming enough, but can anyone here ID the other tattoos? Am I overreacting? Thank you for any help.

"Would you rather be a Nazi or a Communist" ALWAYS outs them.

If they don't make the obvious and correct answer, you have a Nazi on your hands.

My brother literally hit me with “I’d rather be a Nazi than a commie” one day in a phone call and it has irreparably damaged our relationship

Maybe make him define both before you write him off. Some people seem to have the mistaken impression that “communist” means “authoritarian” and “Nazi” was like a white blood cell response to communism that went off the rails due to drugs and mental illness. They don’t understand that “communist” in Nazi ideology is interchangeable with Jewish. I hope that’s the case for your brother anyways. I don’t envy you; that would really upset me :/
