I guess they don’t teach world history at that school.

Maybe it’s pure coincidence that Nazi salutes + support for trump are so commonplace /s

Russia and China have been Africa’s main influence over the last decade especially after the French left. Whatever those two touch turn into Nazis. You poor bots will have to burn with Xi, Putin, Trump and the rest of the global Nazi clique

It’s like all those Nazi Buddhist temples! /s
Joking aside, the Nazis didn’t invent that “salute.”

Saluting aside..you gotta stop showing this kinda stuff. It’s just gonna give Trump ideas…You watch, tomorrow, our pedophile president will expect a corridor of underage girls at pressers..

Maybe MAYBE that means something else, in some parts of colombia you lift your hand in a similar way to pay respect the flag.

One, the Nazis didn’t invent that salute. In fact, look up pictures of kids in America pledging allegiance to the flag before 1930 or was it in the 1920s. That salute is not uncommon, however, that is fucking hilarious that that’s the salute they use today.

Either they don’t know, which makes them look bad or they do know which….makes them look worse.

The raised arm in salute was in use long before the Nazis hijacked it (think Rome circa 52bc). Same for the Hindi/Buddist/Jainist symbol known as a swastika and was that for a millenia before being appropriated. This info is hidden in books.

The real facepalm is always in the comments. Trinidad and Tobago is in the Caribbean, NOT in Africa. Also, the salute has actually been quite common around the world for saluting flags, reciting pledges and national anthems, etc., especially in Latin America, including countries like Mexico who have leaned left for over a century. Not everyone around the world grew up watching the history chanel, so the “Nazi Salute” is not so much ingrained in their minds as it is for Americans. Also, Russia and China are not Nazis. Even if it’s fair to call them authoritarian, they would still run away from imagery that would associate them with fascism and nazism in particular. China, at least, still squarely identifies with Communism, while Russians may look at the Soviet Union with some degree of nostalgia. Claiming something about “Russia and China in Africa” in response to this video just shows your ignorance.

Nazis didn’t invent that salute. In America, you raised your hand like that during the pledge of allegiance. Until the Nazi’s started using it so we stopped.
Just because it means one thing in Europe doesn’t mean that is it’s only meaning around the globe. Swastika, same thing – in Hindu culture it has a different meaning.

Question…does this mean something different in their culture? I’d be surprised if it was Nazi related, but the world has lost its mind.

I’m assuming this is just a cultural difference. WW 2 and Nazism will mean different things to different countries, and I highly doubt this has anything to do with Nazism and everything to do with historical-cultural relevance to that area. Just a guess though.
