    TBH I wasn’t sure if you were exaggerating so I looked it up. No hyperbole, no exaggeration, that is a 100% a totenkopf on his chest. Just a totenkopf. Not some innocent thing that happens to be a lookalike. Not some riff on it co-opting it (not that that would be great either). Just a straight up totenkopf.

    When I said in another comment,

    Idk anything about the guy really, all I heard was “proud veteran” and he was already cancelled in my mind. The only way I’ll consider allying with an AmeriKKKan veteran is if they’re ashamed of it, apologetic, guilt-ridden, consider joining up a mistake, are committed to trying to atone for their mistake, and say “death 2 AmeriKKKa” every night before they go to bed. Anyone who’s proud of being an American soldier is a Nazi in my book.

    I was using the word “Nazi” in a lazy and sloppy way to equate AmeriKKKan fascists with Nazis, I didn’t mean actual sieg-heiling totenkopf-sporting Hitler-loving Nazi Nazi.

    Beyond parody.

      The thing is, he seems so deeply unserious and aimless that he probably is not even a sieg-heiling Nazi. Maybe he is, but so far it genuinely seems like he is your average PMC, spoiled, American who’s fascism is undefined and mostly an outgrowth of this country being foundational to fascism. He is a grifter who does not believe in much of anything seriously. He is that particularly scary type of American soldier, the non-ideological fascist. If that makes any sense
