Some months back on holidays in France: turned on the TV, this was BFM a news channel. There was a demonstration in the center of Paris, riot cops in full gear.
It was hot and one had his vest open, showing a "LONSDALE" brand t-shirt where conveniently, the center part of the word that remains visible with a vest says "NSDA".
If you are clued up on this you will know NSDA can stand for National Sozialistische Deutsch Arbeitspartei, ie. the forebear of the Nazi party. It's a know thing among certain wrongheaded folks.
Consider this a public service announcement. I have not gone back.
- newcomputer 6y agoSo you refuse to go to France because you once saw a single cop on TV with a vest cropping a logo on his shirt such that it looked like that of a defunct socialist organization? You're a full-on whack-job.
- polotics 6y agoNo, there are many more data points than this. Sorry I thought it was relevant. I have no time to write you a dissertation.
