I wonder if they realize that these aren't the good ones.

Ah, i see. Members of the US Space Force attended the ceremony too.

I traveled in Europe for months in 2000-01. In Munich at a club there was a whole Lazer show and then Darth Vader came out with some stormtroopers and did a concert. It was so weird. Plus I don't speak German so it was extra strange

 

[Kraz]

Somehow...

After catching up on the series they can go as Mandalorians.

hmm stormtroopers in germany, right I see

 

[AJUMP23]

Do they not know what Storm troopers represent. I guess to them it is their glorious history.

 

[EviLore]

Germans when you mention your family was killed by the Nazis

Meanwhile, German military

and German police

Yet again, im. It sure what is real and what is a joke

 

[Halo is Back]

Lmao, the Empire's officers look so much like Nazis. The PR team really didn't think this one through.

That's probably the German detachment of the 501st Legion and someone thought it would be fun to invite them to the announcement and didn't think how it would look to have German officials to have a photo-op with fictional space Nazis'.

 

[Torrent of Pork]

The Earth jannies are just fucking with us now.

 

[Ownage]

la zors.

 

[ahtlas7]

and German police

 

[LimanimaPT]

I don't know what to think about this. It's so bizarre that it is funny! I laughed so hard at this...
Who had this idea? The empire is the equivalent of the nazis. They are the bad guys for god sake. Using the empire in an official military event in germany is such a bad idea.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Yep, that’s Germany.

 

[E-Cat]

Did nazi that coming.

Palpatine?

 

[Spyxos]

Palpatine?

Yep.

 

[Elder Legend]

Palpatine?

Female version.

 

[BlackTron]

The joke was too on-the-nose. Only Nazi Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise.

 

[TGO]

how did no one post this one

Everyone's getting genderbent these days...

 

[FunkMiller]

The stormtroopers and Vader are one thing... they're pretty silly plastic costumes when you get right down to it. You can just about get away with it, given how unique they all look to a sci-fi movie setting.

But the Imperial Officers, whose uniforms ARE DIRECTLY INSPIRED BY THE NAZIS

Perfect

Bülent Ceylan did this gag a few years ago during his comedy special and it worked

the human brain is easily tricked.

Yes, the human brain is easy to trick.
But the funny thing about the video I posted is that it was made in 1973. So several people in that audience lived through WW2.
Who knows, maybe some even were in the Wehrmacht or SS at the time....

 

[ahtlas7]

Is this thing the mascot?

 

[Trunx81]

German Bundeswehr also made this unicorn truck to say farewell to a transgender soldier.

 

[Irobot82]

What's up with the Nazi candle thing?
