So, i hope this is okay to ask about, but i'm going to germany soon to an anime convention and me and my friend are gonna cosplay something like the nazi uniforms, we don't support nazis at all we just really love the way the nazi uniform looks, we are gonna remove the nazi symbol from the armband ect, it will still look like a nazi uniform but without all the hatefull symbols, my question is, do you think we will get in trouble for it? I mean it is germany.. Any ideas what to do and what to say if people call us nazis? Thanks c:

As a german I say don't do it. You probably won't get into legal trouble, but you will get into trouble with people. Weird looks and being called nazis being the most harmless of things that could happen to you, being beaten up by some ANTIFA guys the worst if you're unlucky enough to run into them.

You are asking a question you already know the answer to.

Even with all circumstances as you described, your best case scenario will be weird looks and possible heckling.
Worst case scenario is you have really bad things done to you by people who don't take kindly to anything remotely related to Nazis.

Not all military uniforms look the same. If it's an actual SS uniform, it's pretty unique looking even without the insignia. But since it will probably be an ill fitting mess with half of it replace with inappropriate goth clothing I think she'll be safe.

I know this is most likely a troll (at least I have my fingers crossed) but I'll bite because I've known many an asshat like this.

Even without the symbols, people will know exactly what you're wearing. I know edgelords live for the kind of reactions they get wearing that type of shit in most of the US, but in Germany it will be a whole different ball game. You won't get silently offended people giving you looks or people rolling their eyes, you will be met with serious disgust unlike anything you've ever experienced. People will have no qualms being vocal about their disapproval, and more likely than not, someone will spit on you. The police will give you shit and interrogate you, some might even find any stretch they can to arrest you.

Also, I reported you for being underageb&, which for the record, won't stop people from beating you up like you think. Girls usually don't look any different at 15 from adulthood besides less curves, anyway. I doubt anyone will assume you're 15, especially if you're dressed like a fucking nazi. Plus, 15 is considered a lot older there, no one's going to care enough not to hurt you if they were planning on it.

>>8520662
The Nazi uniform is very distinct, symbols or none, and did you forget that she's planning to do this in Germany? Yeah, they're not going to see it as "oh a girl in some generic military uniform" like ignorant people in the US under the very false impression that there's nothing unique about the uniform style.

>> No.8521416

>>8521372
This. If she is not wearing an uniform and just fetish goth like >>8520615 It's still enough to tell if it's nazi inspired just by the shape of the hat.
And if it's just a random hat/jacket/whatever then it's not nazi anything and you're just a dumb bitch.

... could you imagine being a PoC, Jewish, or LGBT normalfag with zero context and walking past this? They'd have every reason to genuinely fear for their safety, yet these little shits don't think twice about how a gang of people in military uniforms giving a Nazi salute looks to the unknowing public, especially the people who actually have to fear this shit.

Are Americans really this unaware of how not okay Germany is with anything Nazi-related? FFS, you'd think simply the fact it was illegal to even call yourself one or have anything with a swastika would be enough to get through to people that it's an entirely different ballgame here.

As far as I can tell US schools don't really cover European history post-WWII and as such, many Murrikans don't understand that modern Germany is very different from Nazi Germany. Seriously, go on any US-centric forum or imageboard and say you're German and 99% of the replies will be "heuhueheuehue Heil Hitler amirite? XD"
Add the fact that the US was more personally involved with the events in the Pacific Theatre than those in Europe and you've got several generations of twats who have absolutely no fucking idea how big of an impact WWII had on European countries. I mean fuck, most people's grandparents actually lived through it. If anyone came anywhere near my grandma in anything resembling a Nazi uniform I'd punch them in the teeth and I'm normally one of the least violent people you'd ever meet.

Yeah, I lived in the States for a while. The general population is completely ignorant to anything involving Europe other than WWII and England's royal family. There's no shortage of well educated people who know European history better than most of us do, but they're in the minority. I am not shitting you, I knew a girl who thought they spoke French in London. She was an over all bright girl, too, which was the disturbing part. It's very common for uneducated Americans to lump entire continents together, they see all Europeans as the same, all Asians as the same, and they do it the worst with Africa.

not sure if bait.
but if you are serious keep some things in mind.
be aware what part of germany you are in!
some places have synagogs jewish graveyards and jewish museums on every corner. other places have serious issues with neonazis. people there are particularly touchy about things like this, and you wouldnt want to show up on a place like this looking anything like a nazi, right?
next would be: where do you come from?
do you speak english/german to explain yourself, if need be?
Do you have a good reason to be dressed like that? do you just want to satisfy your edgelord needs or do you want to do it just for the lolz?
what kind of con are you talking about?
if its small sized and you know the people, just go there in casual and change once you get there.

I know people outside of germany have a great time with stuff like that. and thats ok. I was forced to dress up as hitler myself when i visited the usa on halloween. most people would be fine with a girl in nazi clothes.

As far as I know, it is not forbidden to wear the plain uniform without any insignia.
If she wears the jacket open with a corset underneath and a miniskirt, the majority won't recognize the uniform, and even if people do feel offended, she will probably just be asked to change her clothes.

There is a difference between illegal and just downright socially unacceptable on every level. Plus, as another anon pointed out, that's the kind of thing cops might honestly make up shit to arrest you over. If you look it up, you'll find shit about them arresting neo-Nazis who are within the skirt of the law over things that they clearly were reaching for.

The second example she posted probably won' get her in much trouble, but you can just remove all the hate symbols from a nazi uniform and expect people in Germany to magically forget what the outfits look like. It's like removing the badges from a KKK robe and thinking you're chill.
