I once suddenly saw a Harley motorcycle parked in central Mexico in front of a bar. It was painted. It had swastikas all over, a buste painting of Hitler on the gas tank and a whole lot more third riech shit.

I decided to wait out the Arian asshole that would take it for a spin but imagine my surprise when this tiny very dark skinned indigenous guy somewhere in his 50s walks out wearing a jacket with Goebels painted on the back, he jumpy up the motor cycle and takes off.

The guy would have been at the front of the line to the showers, but whatever. I'm always really impressed with people not knowing basic history.

Reminds me as well, I once saw (also in a Mexican store) mein kampf right next to Anne Frank's diary, "because they're about the same subject matter"

Did I mention that one time while playing paintball with mexican police, one of the officers takes off his shirt and he's full American history X with the swastika and some SS tattoos on his chest?

Yeah mexico needs to uppen it's education about WWII

I assume they just ignore reality because what they really want is the power that Nazis had.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say old mate Goebbels jacket probably had a life that was a little short on control and power.
