President OBAMA collects Nazi Memorabilia / militaria (collector, great, interest, market)

Look, I'm Just Going To Say It: I Collect Antique Nazi Memorabilia | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

here's something interesting, the President likes to collect militaria items / Nazi War items

Now, let me be clear about this: I myself am not a Nazi. This obviously should go without saying. Furthermore, I have no affiliation whatsoever with the National Socialist movement in any way other than being a collector of Nazi art and iconography. Needless to say, I am repulsed by Nazism’s abhorrent beliefs. The genocide that robbed six million Jews and millions of Poles, Roma, and gay people of their lives stands alone as a nightmare unique in mankind’s history, but aesthetically and culturally, yes, I do find it fascinating, and collecting Nazi memorabilia is a hobby that I enjoy in my spare time.
I would also like to emphasize that this hobby, while not necessarily “common” on a large scale, does not make me weird or somehow deviant. Also, it’s more common than you might think. Check it out online. Besides, collecting Third Reich paraphernalia is merely a diversion I indulge in privately, or in the company of numerous fellow Nazi memorabilia collectors whose interest in this area is purely historical.
People in this country are free to collect whatever they want to collect. It’s one of the things that makes America great, if you want to think about it that way.

Lots of people collect that stuff. The mindset of collecting results from the fascination of items, not the moral judgement of what they represent.

Some people collect Nazi materials and objects, some people collect guns and others collect flowers.

So what?

Just because a couple of people seemed to have missed a certain fact about The Onion


The Onion is an American news satire organization. It is an entertainment newspaper and a website featuring satirical articles reporting on international, national, and local news, in addition to a non-satirical entertainment section known as The A.V. Club. It claims a national print circulation of 400,000 and says 90 percent of its web site readers are between 18 and 44 years old.[2][4] Since 2007, the organization has been publishing satirical news audios and videos online, as the "Onion News Network".[5] Web traffic on theonion.com amounts to some 7.5 million unique visitors per month.[6]

In other words, the article is b.s.

That would explain the recently discovered photos of him bearing a Hitler-like mustache.

The Nazis fought against groups thought to be aligned with socialists.

Socialist in the NSDAP has as much to do with socialism as democratic does with democracy in the peoples democratic republic of China or the German democratic republic had . LOL The Nazis hated Socialism and Communism. Nazi Germany was built on private industry and contracts to build the weapons of the Nazi war machine. Sorry kids Data is correct.
