Thai Student Nazi Dress-Up Day Causes Outrage

[MaxYakov]

Now we can all condemn Monty Python too based on pictures ... for that matter lets condemn all things British.

Exactly Nisa.Well said.

So all the nun has to do is re write her letter to explain the students were modeling their sport day performance on Monty Python.

That's about it, except she'll have to find someone really clever and fluent in English to write it for her. There will probably be some of Obama's speech-writers coming available soon.

Interesting point. These were/are talented, adult (legally, at least ... I don't know about mentally), professional entertainers. There's never an outraged Holocauster around when you need one.

Makes me wonder, though, how many of the Sacred Heart students are considering going professional after graduation. As a tour group perhaps? Spiffier costumes, some humor and some upbeat, Thaizied Wagner. They've already gotten a leg up (pardon the expression) with all the notoriety.

The English have always made an art form of self parody and satire for many years.

Movies such as the Carry On series, political satire like That Was The Week That Was, historical satire with the brilliant Blackadder and the ever brilliant stooge, Baldrick, and the Monty Python team who extracted the urine from just about anything British.

Spitting Image was so far over the top for its portrayal of British Royals that it would get you executed or life imprisonment here ( and rightly so).

I don't think Thailand is mature enough for comedy programs satirizing the The Thai military, The Thai Police Farce and Thai politicians. Too much good material, too many upset people.

No, all people have to do is accept there was no malice, that their personal interpretation of the parade may well be tainted by their predisposition, that the apology was not an explanation, but an attempt to diffuse the wrath of the 'outraged'......but that will simply not do for some....who appear to wish to dominate the way a people think and express themselves.....isn't that what the Nazi were about?

Thank god for that! All we need to do is understand they didn't have the first clue about the nazis and everything is OK.

Obviously anyone who finds it even slightly off-colour is trying to impose their views on everyone else.

Looking at it seems to me after reading that the students at Sacred Heart in Bangkok study Nazism, the ladies at the sports day CM were trying to portray feminazis (as another poster mentioned) and did have an understanding of what they were doing.

The good Sister knew about it but decided to take the rap for being ignorant as the lesser of two evils the other being knowing about feminazis.

Comedy skits, satire, etc. about Nazis are a totally different thing. In fact, many wonder if the Germans had been able to view The Great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin that Hitler might not have risen as he did.

Best of Great Dictator

Great Dictator Speech

The only thing with that idea (Hitler might not have risen as he did) is, beyond it's being a total pipe-dream that its viewing could have even happened, is that IMDB Great Dictator 1940 IMDB indicates it was not released until March 7, 1941. By that time Hitler had already taken Europe and was in Libya.

However, I've always felt that a more recent spoof of this ilk, Dr. Strangelove 1964 could have had a material affect on the end of the Cold War and could have been viewed by the Kremlin and certainly was seen by our military decision-makers (Nominated for 4 Oscars). Alas, its message was probably ignored by all as Running Dog, Capitalist/Hollywood, CIA propaganda. But maybe not all.

There are several angles to this story. One not mentioned, is the reaction generated from seeing symbols. Christians get frothed up when they see the number 666. Arabs fret when they see the Star of David, and perhaps Jews don't care for the crescent moon, and then there's the crucifiction, on and on. It relates to what offends certain people. Words offend, images offend, gestures offend. How about freeing your defense mechanism to the degree that nothing can offend you? Most people would say that's impossible. People are an odd species: We cling to things (images, symbols, words, gestures) which offend us. What other species does that?

I think a few rare people can get to a level of consciousness where they can lessen the gravity and emotional response to symbols. Somewhat similar to John Lennon's words to his "Imagine' song: "Imagine there's no countries, I wonder if you can. Nothing to live or die for, just brotherhood of man.........." I would ask T.Visa posters, to imagine there's no big deal about symbols. Then take a step further, and imagine how that might free up a person's consciousness - albeit just a tad.

Indeed. No one wonders that. The movie was made in response to Hitler's rise. Did the poster in question just think it was a coincidence that it so closely matched Hitler and his regime?

"Nazi chic" is a term that describes the use of Nazi imagery, paraphernalia or fashion either for the exhilaration of breaking taboos or for sensational shock value, but not for the express purpose of sympathizing with the ideology of Nazism.

Cosplay is a popular phenomenon in Asia where practitioners dress up as characters from their favorite manga, video games and anime. However, while rare, cosplay in the style of Nazi Germany military personnel has become somewhat prevalent and has been documented as early as 2000.

This recent interest in Nazi cosplay is likely inspired by such Nazi-themed anime and manga like "URDA: The Third Reich" which tells a story about Nazis using time-travel to change the outcome of World War II; "Kekko Kamen", in which a naked masked superhero fights corruption at a school against such adversaries like an S+M-themed Nazi dominatrix; "The Cockpit", in which it is a Nazi Germany that wields the world's first atomic bomb; "Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade", in which Japan is taken over by Germany at the end of WWII; "Kishin Heidan", in which aliens invade Earth during WWII and form an alliance with Axis powers; and "Hellsing", a manga about a Nazi group called "the Millennium" that relocate to Brazil after the end of WWII and become vampires.

Nazi cosplayers often don't comprehend the historical implications of the uniforms they are wearing. When asked, they would respond with "We're not racist, we just like the fashion. Really." Nazi cosplaying occurs in Japan, Hong Kong and South Korea, all places that though were directly involved with World War II didn't experience the same impact of Nazi culture as the West or haven't come to appreciate the sensitivity that Westerners may have towards Nazi imagery. Of these three places, it is in Japan that amanga version of Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf" has been published.

Let me see ... You think it's OK to execute or imprison for life for 'over the top' satire of royalty. Or was it that Spitting Image was so bad it justified that degree of punishment to the instigators, wherever it was played?

Would you consider an open management position with the upcoming Nazi Paraders of the Sacred Heart musical comedy tour group? Had to ask. They'd be a smash hit under the astute management.

As you are aware discussion of the Thai Royal family is forbidden on this forum. I merely stated that a similar satire to Spitting Image, which was a major hit in the U.K.,would land one in very serious trouble in this country and I agree with that given the circumstances.

Perhaps my "rightly so" comment was over the top.

You have confirmation these students are Nazis?

I'm pretty confident that you are one of the very few people to believe these kids to be Nazis and not kids wearing Nazi costumes for their fancy dress theme.

If you cannot see the relevance to this dress being fashionable in some parts of Asia and these people not having the same understanding of the offensiveness of the dress as in other parts of the world then I'm not sure whatelse can be said.

Edit: PS, no reason to post Thais in Nazi get-up because we've all already seen them.

You may also want to let the Israeli Embassy know they got it wrong too..

"I think that what happened was more down to ignorance than malicious intentions," Itzak Shoam, Israeli ambassador to Thailand stated. "Many people here in Asia are not fully aware of the events that went on in Europe."

And all this time I thought it was about students who had dressed up as Nazis for a sports parade and, last but not necessarily least, the ensuing outrage of individuals and organizations that resulted from this activity.

Hopefully the teachers and students will actually find out something about the nazis as a result of the furore.

You are right, in many parts of the western world they have real Nazi sympathizers attending school that hold their real Nazi events outside of school. And in the US they have actual stabbings and killings regularly at schools (despite metal detectors and full time cops at the schools) but lets pretend all of Thailand is crazed because kids have now twice dressed up in Thailand in an offending way (Nazi costumes), at their fancy dress sport days, without any bad intentions.
