What a delightful image, don't you think? That's something that the 'Action Alliance' is using to promote their upcoming event, in which they are hoping to get German gamers to throw away their 'killer' games. I love being compared to a Nazi, don't you?

:/ yeah. They'd better fight against neo-nazis groups before talking about games. But no, they prefer to turn a blind eye to Nazism, because you know, it's too much uncomfortable.
Looks like I was right. I'm sorry but whoever submitted this is grasping at straws. The "please throw your killer games away" graphic is based on the "don't litter" sign and has nothing to do with Nazis, it gets modified all the time for all sorts of things/causes. It is not "Nazi-related imagery".
Did you just invoke Godwin's law in the third comment of a post about Germany invoking Godwin's law? I think you just broke the internet.
f***
okay, seriously, why does gonintendo censor "F" followed by a series of "U"s?
@magicalsoundshower
umm, im pretty sure that its not the images by themselves, but that both those images are together
No, they're not, read the article that's linked.
Based on the article, it seems that they are using a modified version of the nazi sign, not actually comparing violent games to nazi imagery, but I can see where people would reach that conclusion.
Also, Heil Miyamoto!
