I found this image of a bookmark from the Nazi humor magazine Brennessel. I’m not sure if that is supposed to look like a hop cone, or if it’s just coincidence, but it creeps me out. And it left me with some questions:
- Was it Tettnanger hops that fueled the Nazi movement?
- Nazis had a sense of humor?
- Isn’t a bookmark kind of an ironic way to spread propaganda for a group that burned books?
No, I wasn’t surfing for Nazi propaganda. I had been helping an instructor with his history of the Holocaust course. It was one of the links.
