Did you even know what traits separated a totenkopf from any other skull and crossbones before this scandal? And your hypothesis is that sometime in those 17 years his Jewish family recognized it, told him, and he said “nah, I’ll keep it”? The secret Nazi theory just doesn’t make any sense.
The reality is the totenkopf is a relatively obscure symbol, is similar to popular benign symbols, and tattoos blur over time. That’s why he got through the military tattoo reviews.
According to Wikipedia, nothing distinguishes a totenkopf from other skull symbols, with or without bones behind it. Poison symbol? Totenkopf. Punisher logo? Totenkopf. Skull with a bullet hole in it? Believe it or not, totenkopf.
I have no idea if it’s a realistic depiction of what qualifies or not, but practically any skull used in a vaguely militaristic context qualifies under its description.
Then wow it must just be a crazy coincidence that the tattoo he got on his chest is the exact design that Wikipedia (and pretty much every other site about Nazi symbology) chose to show as an example.

This is so fucking disingenuous.
Might want to think about taking a step back and considering why you’re defending Nazi symbology
Go read the Wikipedia page. It’s silly.

What bad luck! 🙄
