        Right… What connection to Hitler? 😅

        He’s a Nazi, but like I’m only just finding out about how explicitly nazi he in more recent times- I assume the book was published before then

        I’m wondering if there’s something older I don’t know about based on the fact that he’s featured in the book

            I know the post is refrencing him doing a naxi salute, but I assume the book wasn’t published in the last like 3 days

            I’m wondering what happened in the past that would have earned him a spot in a book about Hitler. I hadn’t known about much of a Nazi past aside from some vague awareness that he grew up in apartheid soith Africa or something along those lines, and that’s a very different thing than being an actual Nazi

            Its possible it’s incidental, but given that it’s become aparent he’s a literal Nazi, it seems silly to assume as much

            I can’t see if the picture is taped in or something as part of a joke, or anything like that

                Yes, that was the joke. It was just a clever? edit between opening two different books.
