Funny pic, but this feels kinda like the wrong format for this since in 1936 so famously 4 gold medals went to this chap from USA: Jesse Owens, a black man from USA.
And that's is despite Hitler trying to show how whites are better at all the things. The poor dude faced more hardships back home than on the podium there.

(Not that those games weren't controversial and very politically flavored - Germany won 4× as many medals than in 32, USA about half.)

I have never seen that bottom quote before, and Google being the shitty search engine it is cant find any reliable source for it. Can anyone find one? Id like to commit that to memory as it could be useful to counter neonazi nonsense but don't want to spread misinformation.

I dunno, seems to make several ~~funny~~ good points in one pic

Even Hitler couldn't draw a proper swastika, apparently.

Using AI for good. I like it.

Is the image not AI generated? With all the odd swastikas and stuff?

Edit: Look at the hands of the Nazi dude on the right. Case closed

Well, I'm kinda glad the AI doesn't do swastikas . I just hope it's intentional, and not a programming limit.
