You're not well read, are you . . .

Gee, again . . . define Aryan and then get back to us when you know what it means

Wow, is being Scandinavian now the same as being stupid? So, you believe that Germans have a secret admiration for their nazi past? I guess living in a country that looks likea shriveled penis jutting out of a much larger Germany makes you even look pathetic on a map.

Shall we talk about wannabe-Vikings and what the Swedes think about Danes wishing it were so?

Nowhere, but as DD says . . . it brings out all the self-righteous wankers who think it is cool to label people . . . I'd say that Germans would probably be the least fascinated people about their Nazi history . . . but then the legends on this forum have all lived there and know so many Germans.

Ah dear . .. time to work

Want to see Nazi flags just walk into any upscale Thai theatre. They have a display with Nazi flags for the new Tom Cruise Movie. It's the first time I've actually see a real swastika flag flying. I doubt they are using displays like this in Germany and Israel. It's kind of eerie.

Anyways, everyone be they good or bad has a time to move on. Within a short time there will be another renter in that house who will probably be driven over the edge one day as well. I just home the owners can get rid of that stink.


Less people is a step forward to a greener balanced ecosystem.

Did we strike a note there PH ?

I did not say all Germans but there are certainly quite a few, and the ones in Nazi helmets here in Thailand either displays a monumental lack of taste and tact or they must like the Nazi lid.

And a few snips from the net-

"Wikipedia Germany is being sued by a German politician. Katina Schubert from the Left Party is alleging that the German Wikipedia site promotes Nazism by having “too much symbolism and imagery”, especially towards the Hitler Youth."


"The NPD (Germanys new Nazi party) is hoping to achieve the five percent level in 2009 which would give it seats in the national Bundestag. Even if the economy improves the Nazis can increase in strength. If the economy gets worse an increase is almost inevitable. Many a worried German is looking at the history books about the years preceding Hitler's rise to power." Victor Grossman.


And yes we can always talk about Vikings but not on this thread PH. You might actually learn some things.

There are a group of germans in my condo block in Jomtien that celebrate adolf's Birthday every year
Weird to see them saluting and shouting

No, not at all - I just tire of all these generalisations . . . note, I also rubished threads where it stated that All Scandinavians are drunks, and the like.

But nice try with the 'striking a note', inferring I share the same views as the guy. Nice try . . . but rubbish

Ahem you did:
Good, your point is?
It cant hold the same ideals as the NSDAP as they are illegal . . .

I used to work quitea bit in Denmark and Sweden, and have heard all the crap - even had a Swede rip off a chicken's head to show his masculinity at a Viking party hosted by a large Swedish IT company . . .

Odd, I would count Denmark and Danes among my favourite Europeans and thought they were more open minded.

Q: "How high is ze snow in Frankfurt now?"

A: "It is zis high!" (cue Nazi salute). Who says the Germans have no sense of humour, eh?

They had the best uniforms though.

[quote=panama hat;952465]^^"for Jerman (nazi) (wankers) with........" seen in context it hardly means all Germans PH but if you or other posters perceive it like that I apologise I was referring to the ones that factually exists.

^We are so carry on, you are making unwarranted assumptions and to big an issue of one post.

Have a nice one PH.

panama hat

The only assumptions made are by you in your initial post, but this discussion has run its course, I agee with you.

jim1176

He probably found out he had a drop of jew blood in himself and did the right thing.

He will be missed at the meetings

pickel

He followed the leader.

EmperorTud

We'll try to keep the noise down next year.

Hell, I wear one of them Kraut can lids, light weight, easy to see out from under and keeps the cops off my ass, I do see a lot of Thai wearing the newer ones with swastikas and SS lightning bolts, shiny with chrome around the edge, one day they will check mine and give me a ticket cause I think mine would not pass even Thai safety test, but I don't wear it for that reason anyway, I rode scoots for damn near 60 years and I never wore a helmet. now I do because every day 3 of them want 200 baht if ya don't got one on.

But if it bothers anyone by me wearing it, you can kiss my ass. Hows that?

nidhogg

Yeah, but hang on a minute - He was the one collecting the "memorabilia". Last I heard it was not compulsory. It does not imply (strictly) that he was a nazi (in spirit at least), but it does imply a degree of fascination with that ideology or period in history.

I can't think of why some one would want to collect that stuff for any other reason.

Scandinavian

Right I'm not well read. So i assume you say Hitler loved the gays, retarded and colored? I didn't know that.

panama hat

So, you're not well read and can't hold a discussion?


Quite homestly neither can I but I do know some people who collect Russian army memorabilia . . . ad they're Americans . . . doesn't mean they are communists, does it?

I don't know, military historical purposes or whatever. I didn't know the guy, obviously . . .

While I've never seen a Westerner sporting Nazi threads, I've seen plenty of Thais doing so. A woman at the restaurant where I used to eat last year was very fond of her "Nazi Warlord" shirt. She wore it at least once a week. In general, as with the case of a friend of mine who was a bit chagrined to learn that his "White Knight" shirt with picture of combat boots had something to do with white power, people just don't know. It's in English- whoopie! It has a picture on it- hooray!

I had a weird conversation in Penang with a woman at a shop. She was selling a shirt that read "Skinhead - White Power." I was just checking to see if she understood what the shirt was all about. She didn't really seem to know or care.
