If the Nazis ever invented a time machine, a game convention would be the perfect place to send them without arousing suspicion.

Nazis were a political group. Those are SS -- German elite infantry.

Yeah homie. If anything the SS were the only military sect of Deutschland that you really could call Nazis and know for sure that they were.
CandidGamera
No. It was the paramilitary arm of the NSDAP. The whole point was to have troops totally loyal to Nazi ideology, alongside the Wehrmacht.

SS: The Schützstaffel, paramilitary arm of the Nazi party, like the SA, which evolved into a lineage-based German army subdivision. (1/2)

The SS were the real Nazis of the German army. The Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe, etc. were mainly just grunts and purely military leaders. (2/2)

This was true in the beginning of all, towards the end every line soldier got the SS on their uniform so the "real" big fish weren't (1/2)

They were probably prop guns (I'd guess made by Denix) and I assume they only pointed them at people who requested a photo. I agree though.

The story of the Holocaust was actually made up by Tumblr feminists to demonstrate the dangers of runaway white male privilege.

It seems to be because if someone did that at e3 now their would be protests and boycotts and people whaaaaaing all over the place.

yea, comparing prince harry wearing nazi costume to actors wearing nazi costumes on gaming convention
TheyCallMeTheDoc
No people understood that it wasn't actual nazis and instead an attempt at a poor joke.
SingleNiceFedoraWearingClassyGuycautiondonotfriendzone
"'Bunch panties' kinda reinforces the stereotype that women are more sensitive than men. Maybe 'bunch gender nonspecific undergarments'"?
adam1111
Except that women are generally more emotionally sensitive than men. Not always, but most of the time. That's just evolutionary science.
