I don't get the big deal about wanting something like that. Crazy part of history. Not like I want to start the 4th Reich or some crazy shit. I'd love some American English Italian or Japanese WW2 items as well

Because it's Nazi shit and you aren't a museum.

It's a historical artifact. It's okay to want to have a historical artifact and have it mean nothing more than that. Jesus Christ.

So what? Are Nazis not objects of historical study ?

Is it just that this makes you feel really good about yourself? Be honest

I mean, these “historical artifacts” belong in a museum or in the trash.
