Expected reaction. The picture shows German WWII soldiers and people call them Nazis.
Why be stupid? Does it make you happy to be stupid?
A Montana Army National Guard recruitment poster is being taken down statewide after an editing mistake was pointed out on social media.

Was it though

I usually think too much nothing happens in Montana for the people there to care to have any vested political decisions. The "whatever " of America. But alas, it might also be because in the back in my mind, I subconsciously hope it really is so dull of a place that it translates into a safe zone for affordability and neutrality. Maybe once upon a time it was true, but with the pioneering of high speed internet, maybe the societal diseases have spread there too.
Competing every night, both ends, shoot inside/outside, fast break, transition, Monta Ellis have it all
Hoo boy

The current governor of Montana is the guy who was convicted of assault for body slamming a reporter a few years ago.

How can you tell they're German? It's pretty low res to me.
How quaint.

Apparently they're not real German soldiers, they're re-enactors pretending to be German soldiers for a photoshoot

Doesnt make it any better.
A garbage pod!? It's a smegging garbage pod!
In searching for a historical image for the background of the poster, the creator found an Adobe Stock photo.

This seems like an incredibly easy mistake to make.

Its really not an easy mistake as German WW2 soldiers look pretty fucking unique and the OG image says what they are, dont defend this shit ffs.

I had a weeklong deadline to come up with a poster for a Vet outreach poster like that for HQ in DC and even I had sense to google "US soldier stock images" so yeah def a freudian slip of sorts for that person who must've been a closeted fan of the SS

How hard is it to actually just get pictures of the national guard?

I still can't see anything. Do you have to be a military or history nerd to recognize that?

Of course it's not good, but are you honestly arguing that they are secretly nazis whose subliminal messaging was uncovered?
How quaint.

German WW2 helmets and uniform are very unique. You have to be trolling.

Just because I have 99% of a heart doesn't mean it can't kill me. It's tried. Twice.
My body has a dongle and my heart doesn't care. The one thing we agree on.

No. You don't have to be a history nerd to know that considering the world wars were some of history's biggest wars to date.

It's a pretty egregious mistake. Even if it was a mistake, it should be the type that gets you fired for a complete and utter lack of ability to pay attention.

You may think that more people are WW2 buffs capable of picking apart uniforms in a grainy photo than actually are.

That would be harder to miss. Did you look the stock photo up or something? That isn't in the article posted in the OP.

Yes it's a very bad look. But I'm not talking about the person who made it, I'm saying when I look at that photo, I see low res gray-scale uniforms with no identifying features.
How quaint.

I think you misunderstood what they said they're not getting moderated for anything there

I wouldnt expect the average person to know that signifies German soldier. Im not giving the same pass to the Montana National Guard.

Unless it has SS on it then I'm not going to recognize a specific uniform, especially if theres no color and it's low quality. How is that trolling? You really think the average person has that as common knowledge?

The helmet

Anyone with knowledge of what soldiers of WW2 looked like is gonna recognize the stahlhelm or however it's spelled

I don't know why you would expect everybody in the national guard today to have that kind of knowledge of uniforms worn during a war that likely ended before their grandparents were born.

The photo is labelled as "Unidentified re-enactors dressed as World War II German soldiers" on Adobe though, so it would take some pretty impressive levels of carelessness to accidentally use it.

You dont know why I would expect the National Guard to have a better awareness of military history than the average person?

I don't know why you would expect that particular level of knowledge about uniforms worn almost a century ago.
Literally a war that changed the world forever. Now stop.

Please stop taking the bait. It's obviously German troops. Tenlaar loves pulling the devil's advocate crap for attention.

How exactly is saying that not recognizing specific helmets of uniforms from almost a century ago is reasonable but not reading the name of the picture before using it isn't "devil's advocate crap?"
Literally one of the most recognisable helmets in history

This is the problem with WWII passing out of living memory.....
Trying to burn the bridges to a culture that taught us to hate and fear and live like cogs in a machine and not like lovers, friends, and kin.
