So the Nazis were attacking the idea of Americans as liberators by portraying them as Klansmen?

The poster contains more than that, but hey -- national socialist v.s a nigger hating, cross burning, pro-inbreed redneck?

I'm not a native gothic speaker, but I think the little marsian guy is holding a sign saying "The US is trying to save European culture from destruction", which I'd personally consider a quite accurate piece of propaganda in this time and age.

So what they're saying is "RPGCodex", "RPG Codex"?

Ohoho. Maybe there's some fun to be had with this code, ala the Flower revolution of DAC?

Gothic? What's that? Looks like Dutch to me.

BTW, nice work!

That american nazi propaganda poster is cool, its nearly identical to modern leftie/islamist moaning. Controlled by Jews, check. AmeriKKKa, check. Crass capitalism destroying wonderful culture, check. Slutty women, check. All it needs is to be drinking from big glass of oil and it could go in the NYT.

goth-ic –adjective

3. of or pertaining to Goths or their language.

Goth n.

A member of a Germanic people who invaded the Roman Empire in the early centuries of the Christian era.

I'd say that might just as well include Dutch.

I believe the the right term to be used today is Nordic and/or Scandinavian, which cover all modern descendants of Goths. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Helloooo, guys. Please, don't mix soviet posters with chinese communist ones, USSR and Peoples' Republic of China are two different countries :) And, by the way, for those who study WW2 history on games like Red Alert - Soviets were on Allies side. Not Axis ;)

Providing constructive criticism and being a member of the Codex, as far as I can tell. They warned me a few times for made-up reasons, so I suppose the same applies.

And yes, fuckers, I'm Cow Guru. I've avoided your hideous gaze for two years! Two! Take THAT, All-seeing Todd!

You're, like, so wrong. There's a sub-branch of Germanic, that's been through some Anglo-Mongolic bonanza, of which the Scandinavian languages consist -- I'll give you that. But the nazi-speak is "pure" Germanic, or as I previously wrote "Gothic". Then again, this topic is so boring that the one and only truth is to stop talking about it.

Why not? Both make good photoshop material.

Truly. One of these is a dead federation.

So wait a second here; Libanon was never a part of the Soviet Union?

It's not like I'm new at the esf. I had a browse-around after I booted up Oblivion, hoping I'd find the pun. Only degrading comments I ever had going, were mild and against some spamming fanboy regulars, frothing at questionmark newcomers like me, and when the "reason and commentary" I recieved from the moderation at the removal of my posts consisted of "Uh?" and "No good" and "Yuckie" and "Eww" the pattern wasn't tough to spot. I followed up some of these cases, and the only responses I ever got were "Take it up with the higher ups", and I did. Two weeks later my account, which had been near inactive if you don't count going in to check my pm box, was banned. Problem solved without casualties -- don't you just love it?

They were both on the side of Evil Oppressors of Poland, which makes them filthy scumbags worthy of one another.

But that's not the point of the thread. Is the flow of great images finished? Say it isn't so :D

I'm amazed I still haven't been banned to this day. There have been countless times I insulted members, devs and Pete over 3 years, I still do it without the 'naughty' words these days and not one warning! I definitely didn't give anyone a blow job either, or set up the boys from the next block to Pete.

I must've been mistaken for somebody's alt, like Summer.
