Nazi ships and airplanes are some of Revell’s biggest selling models. They will Nazi again and again. Just not with flying saucers.

Good. I’m sick of Nazi fanbois who try to argue - based on stuff like this - that the Nazi were better at everything than the Allies, winning every battle from 1939 through to 1945, and they only gave then because they were such good sports.

Why is the idea of having a Space Force so popular with Nazis?

Supremacy.
Also, they are stupid assholes.

So they had antigravity technology but had lost the knowledge of flush rivets…I guess that’s what you get with advanced supersonic Nazi hell creatures from beneath hollow Earth.

Well, we aren’t finished with them, new ones keep popping up all the time.
And I’d actually be okay with relocating them to the Moon.

I misunderstood. I thought maybe Stephen Miller had sued for trademark infringement.

By their own account they are superior beings, so my guess is they don’t need any as such.

I recall some Nazi fanboy complaining that the Wehrmacht were so much better than the Red Army, but they were overwhelmed in terms of numbers, “it’s not fair!” It’s not like this was football and the Soviets had too many men on the field, the Nazis were foolish to invade Russia.

Nevertheless, when you look at the technology of WW2, Germany did have some fine aircraft and tanks, but so did the Allies-- the Spitfire was every bit as good as any German fighter plane, perhaps better.

Does it have to be our moon? Metis seems nice this time of year, what with its several thousands of rems/day.
