Welp if the Germans are calling you Nazis. Ooofff
Don't forget all the countries around Nazi Germany that were occupied. (Many of the European countries)
We've been saying it too.
Solidarity.

Miss it. :(
Satire is alive and well in Germany; these floats are a masterclass in unapologetic commentary.
🐱🐱🐱🐱
Those floats would end up in a lawsuit over here in the “free world”
I'm surprised they had so many swastikas on display. I thought it was illegal to display them in Germany. Or maybe there's some exemption in the case of satire?
Correct. It is perfectly fine to show Nazi symbols for educational and artistic purposes. And artistic means like those floats, not like Riefenstahl movies.
I think it might be the intention. Also, rule bending.
Bravo!!

Just fyi, if you want the actual hashtag to show up, you need to put a backslash () before it.
Personally, I fucking hate when markup only requires one symbol because it means you need to add a fucking backslash every time you actually want to legitimately use that symbol. And it's kinda anti user because people who aren't that clued up about how the markdown works are going to be wanting to make their posts in a particular way and end up with weird unexpected shit like bolding and resizing. I hate it. It should at the very least require a hashtag on either side of what you want to resize.
hey, thanks for the info! I had not intended to create a visible hashtag, but seeing as you poked me, why not?!
would be nice to apply this to protests here at home. about to head out now to one at my city's Town Hall. no floats, but (hopefully) lots of people.
nice rant on markdown, btw. :-)
The same Germany that wanted to build a pipeline to Russia ?
Noice
Little known fact about us Germans, we all act in unison as a swarm entity. When we vote, the election results are 100% for one candidate, everybody always supports every bill that is brought in parliament since our minds are melded together. We strive for unity and to bring you shitty fossil fuel cars. Eat our Sauerkraut to become one with the hive Gemeinschaft.
