Really? Huh. I had no idea they still had such a modern-day impact. If the uniform is likely to seriously distress passersby, I retract the "just clothes" statement, and they shouldn't wear that. You have changed my mind.

I'm not sure I can agree with "sexy evil uniforms and iconography were very powerful tools of propaganda that still serve their purpose today". Are people seriously being swayed to Nazi views by Nazi costumes?

[(Anonymous)]

Its not liable to really, not outside Germany itself. Some people would just throw hysterics if they saw someone dressed as a Roman legionary. Some people just wander around looking for a reason to get upset.

[(Anonymous)]

Not necessarily swayed, but there are contemporary neo-nazis in America and Europe who still use the iconography.

Halo effect--we like people that look sharp. Those people look sharp. They can't be all bad. Maybe they're onto something. I bet wearing that outfit makes them feel powerful. I'd kinda like to feel powerful.

It's not really that obvious of a brain-thing, usually very subconscious, but that's more or less the line the sub-thought goes down.

But yeah, also worth remembering that neo-Nazis are definitely and unfortunately still a thing, and that they tend to like the uniforms as well.

...But in this case, the people wearing the outfit are Hetalia cosplayers.


If the uniform is essentially meaningless except for inflicting distress, it should be put away, as it apparently still causes distress.

If it actually has power, if modern-day Nazis are actually trying to influence people with its evil sexiness, then other people wearing the uniform for extremely stupid reasons is good, because it drains that power. Make a sexy version. Draw yaoi fanart. Appropriate the fuck out of it until it is no longer a useful tool for people who would use it to do evil.

(If the uniform, independently of the wearer, somehow advances Nazi ideology, then it certainly needs to go away, but I haven't seen a compelling argument for that.)
