I bet none of those costumes would’ve made HuffPo



Aside from Stalin, the average American has no idea who those other people are

ETA: On second thought, you probably could add Stalin to that too

most people don't even know that Jack the Ripper was a real person

most people just know it through pop culture references, which is what the costumes are in reference too

your example is pretty dumb

Jack the Ripper was never caught. How could they make a costume of this?

I'm cool with an argument of it's a costume. Generic demons, murderers, whatever, fair game. Hitler was scarier than those by far.

If a group of kids went out us adolf, Benito, Stalin, mao, ho chi Minh I'd get a laugh.

But apparently it's a dad and mom with revisionist history and "but Stalin" and "muh Jewish conspiracy".

So instead of kids being cheeky with real evil people, it's just ignorance.

Not just any Nazi. Based on the insignia on the hat he is portraying an SS officer. Also, where did he find this get up?

I don't get the Holocaust deniers. There is clear evidence and documentation.

That's the main reason Ike ordered the filming of the aftermath- 'Because some sonofabitch will one day say it didn't happen.'


If they weren't holocaust deniers/revisionists of history, the costumes wouldn't be as big of a deal. After all- today's average moron probably thinks the Nazis were from Russia, anyway.

That's a cool looking costume. Unfortunately the neo nazis and white supremacist rednecks ruined nazi uniforms as a viable costume.

Back when I was a kid this was perfectly acceptable as long as you were dressing up as a specific character.
