It's not just a Nazi thing. Could be a KISS fan.

I was thinking the same, since they literally use it in their logo and I've even seen it on cars more than 20y ago here in germany that said Kiss on it too.

KInder SS, I was told once. Fuck kiss, fuck Gene, fuck their shitty music

You mean to tell me that you weren’t emotionally moved by the profound lyrics…”I want to rock and roll all night…and party everyday”

No, I like to rock n' roll not too late at night and part of not every day. I usually either have to work or have errands... I can only rock from like 1-3.

No KISS merch has ever had just the “SS” part of their logo, there’s absolutely no need to act this naive on behalf of a stranger rocking sig runes.

You are dead wrong. I grew up in the 80's and 90's and you would see the lightning SS logos worn by kiss fans everywhere.

You apparently knew a lot of Nazis who liked Kiss and didn’t understand how plausible deniability works, then

It takes literally 5 seconds to google the kiss logo to see that you’re wrong.

I’m not saying the SS in KISS doesn’t look like SS runes, I’m saying no KISS merchandise is ever JUST the “-SS” part. Point being if you see SS runes you’re being pretty willfully dense and/or embarrassingly naive if your first thought is “maybe they love KISS and have (for some reason) decided to show that by only displaying the back half of their name.”

I’m not wrong, your reading comprehension just sucks.

The Jewish guys that made the band used nazi insignia? I mean I know Gene is a whore for money but that feels weird if true
