      Holy shit. I’m bad at telling if AI is obvious sometimes. Is this real? It has swastikas (obviously) but it also has the american flag.

      Is this 1930s? Or 2020s?

      God. The fact I even have to ask is in itself a reflection of where we are as a society I guess.

        Very real, as the other comment says. Nazism was big in the US in the yeas before WW2

        Many “great” pictures can be found online

        NS Fascism had several ties to the USA, not least Hitler himself admiring and copying tons of ideas. Esp. their Eugenics movement.

        So, what I mean is common roots before 1933 and initially strong support after he got to power.

        I’d like to back this up with a suitable article but I can’t find one rn.

          Eugenics, segregation, Ford’s assembly-line technique, and manifest destiny.

        It’s the 48 Star American flag, thus it’s the German American Bund in the 30s. To be fair to the literal Nazis pictured it’s before the holocaust was discovered. It’s not AI, it appears in this 2017 article: https://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2017/06/american-nazis-in-the-1930sthe-german-american-bund/529185/
