Outrage in Taiwan over students' Nazi display at cosplay event

[SEiGE]

Those are by far the happiest Nazi's I've ever seen.

Nobody's gonna turn a nazi because they saw someone dressing up in SS uniform and doing a nazi salute. Especially in a "hey this is just a thing I'm cosplaying as" context.

I'd even argue that treating these things as "fun" things helps reduce the legitimacy of real nazi's. There's nothing to indicate that they're "glorifying" nazi ideology like you say.

Calling others delusional and saying they should be publicly shamed for not adhering to your subjective moral values is asinine.[/QUOTE]

You are a godsend, id nazi salute you but i have no way of definitively conveying it as simply ridiculing naziism as an utterly retarded and moronic ideology instead of it being literal proof i am at this moment slowly morphing into himmler himself, uniform and all, personally strangling a nonspecified but victimised ethnic minority person and should be banned before i can spread this dangerous idea of 'having fun with serious topics to ridicule dogmatists, nazis and moral busybodies alike'

The fact that they ideologically cleansed the staff and student tuitions over this proves we learned nothing of ww2 and all the next hitler needs is a bunch of retards opposing him.

Would everyone be okay with a group of students dressing up as the KKK and burning crosses in public?

Fire is dangerous tho. But again this is just dress up. Its insensitive but not overtly harmful. Things like this lose its power once it becomes a joke.

KKK and nazi's are less boogeymen of old and a running band of merry bigots and video game fodder respectively.

Yes in their day they were terrible and horrible. But everyone knows who and what they are.

Let kids be kids, being stupid is just apart of growing up
