Bucnasti posted:Sadly Nazi Orks are a thing, and I've seen multiple versions of them from different bits creators. Fascists don't see Orks as ugly or bad, and in fact would delight at being portrayed as Orks. The fascist mindset is rooted in the Fremen Mirage, a mythologized worship of the "hard strength" that comes from a rugged origin. To them, Orks aren't brutality and unreason, they are a pure distillation of masculine strength, an ability to take what you want without being punished for it. It's like that bullshit sequence they always bring up Strong Men create Good Times Good Times create Weak Men Weak Men create Bad Times Bad Times create Strong Men Ignoring the fact that it is 100% baseless and not backed up by any serious history, every single fascist believes themselves to be in the "Bad Times create Strong Men" line. They aren't monsters for being brutal and uncaring. They're doing what Must Be Done to reclaim their birthright from the Weak Men who ruined everything. And so they portray themselves as Orks, tearing down the "weak" order that has arisen to create a new world where they are, naturally, at the top.

It doesn't even make sense to have orks as nazis, orks are just mindless killing machines that only respect those above them because those above them are those capable of the most brutal violence. Their wretched caste system oppresses those who do all the hard work to maintain their culture, and their 'economy' would collapse the moment they run out of neighbouring people to raid and conquer. ... Oh.

Nazis looted French vehicles and put bunkers with comedically oversized guns on them:  You can't really represent that in 40k since the base vehicles would also be fash.

If their defence is "well its not any worse than the GW figures! (used to be, more than 20 years ago)" I'd argue thats a little weak.

they're a pretty good youth counterculture joke that then proceeded to get picked up by the least funny people in the world (fascist manchildren) and turned into entire collections of deliberately not getting the joke e: for reference

I wasnt going to the effort of finding out when the 2nd ed 40K nazi inspired stormboys were out tbh, 1996 was a rough guess based on "I remember seeing them when I played 40K which was roughly 1992-1998ish", and "more than 20 years ago" was me playing it safe in case I said 25 years and someone who actually did the research pointed out they actually came out in '98, so only 23 years ago or whatever. My point stands though; Lots of companies (and people) did/said/made poo poo in the 90s that absolutely would not fly today and its at best disingenuous to excuse something in 2021 based on "well it was fine for another company in the 90s".

Now that you mention the shoes, they really should've been wearing Sorroritas leg armor, or at the very least something like combat boots. It probably would've been more confusing at first, but it would help sell the... gag?
