Gregory Bovino’s outwear choice prompts German commentators to compare it to fascist aesthetic
A greatcoat worn by the senior US border patrol official Gregory Bovino, who has spearheaded aggressive immigration operations across the country, has raised eyebrows in German media with some commentators saying it resembled a fascist aesthetic.
Bovino has been an increasingly recognisable figure during the raids in Minneapolis for the brass-buttoned, calf-length olive green coat, which is unlike the fatigues and body armor worn by many of the federal agents.
Along with his close-shorn haircut, the media organization Der Spiegel suggested in a video feature that Bovino’s look recalled that of a Nazi officer.
He knows. That guy is a poser and a troll.
Not saying that makes him any less evil.
Nazi dresses like Nazis…more at 11
A little late on this one.
Because it is.
I don’t see it
If it looks like a nazi, walks like a nazi and salutes like a nazi , then it’s a fucking nazi.
Yeah it concerns me and annoys me to no end that this is overall acceptable.
Both my parents and my two uncles were in World War II. My dad and his brothers did bombing runs. My mother was conscripted and helped in the mayor’s office. She was also at Dunkirk helping unload the wounded from boats. I spent 39 yrs of my life listening to to what the war was about from people that were there. It’s absolutely inane that people don’t think that this is all related to nazism.
Wow, must be a slow news day.
It’s more than just a look.
These thugs ostensibly about “immigration enforcement” are amping up to be death squads. And the conservatives cheer for it. Because they have been told everyone not a Taco fan is a “communist” and is out to get them.
Hugo Boss is still in business
It’s not just a “look”
It looks exactly like that
This wrinkled ballsack looking motherfucker is a psychopath cosplaying as a nazi. Put him feet first into the woodchipper.
Hmm… I do see a problem with that. He might already be dead from blood loss by the time the chipper gets to his alleged balls.
Idiots. It is a typical military non-field (don’t know the correct term in English)coat. Some “journalists” are too lazy and suck out headlines from nowhere.
You mean they look exactly like nazi pricks? Unfortunately we’re too dumb at this moment, but I wait the Nuremberg moment for these idiots with total pleasure.
Can you provide an image of other members of law enforcement wearing similar attire? It obviously looks like WW2 German / Nazi garb.
Ok? So why is a domestic policing agency wearing military uniform items then? That’s hardly better.
