Performing Nazi salutes has been illegal in Germany and Austria since the end of World War II and is punishable by law with prison time.
Proud neo-nazis or drunk idiots?
If you’re a drunk idiot “jokingly” doing nazi salutes as an adult in Germany, you’re just being a nazi. At best nazi-adjacent.
I think you’re severely underestimating how stupid some people can be without malicious intent. Not that I’m justifying their behavior in any way, but it’s possible they’re just really stupid.
And I think you are underestimating how much of a deeply ingrained taboo the nazi salute is for the typical German. You are right, some people can be very stupid, especially drunk. But no German who has not been in some way socilized among nazis would be stupid enough to ever casually do a nazi salute. You just don’t do it.
The only exception I might allow besides actual nazis are very stupid or drunk (or both) teenagers trying too hard to be edgy. And even then most people would find it hard to believe that they’re not at least right leaning.
@atlasraven31 Possibly drunk proud neo-nazi idiots.
Surprising no one unfortunately…
There is no duo more iconic than Germans and Nazism.
Maybe they were just Ukrainian refugees? Isn’t that allowed there in that case?
Amazing that something not pro-Germany or anti-American slipped on to here. They must still be asleep.
Lol, that’s a good one. 49€ ticket probably? At least until they cancel it…
welcome to your bubble. german subs are full of critical stuff. e.g. search for “Bahn”.
ich_iel is like 90% anti-neo-nazi stuff nowadays. I don’t even speak German and can tell that much.
