Gen Z joins an SS Panzer Division?

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Some zoomer on TikTok started a movement to get all the Gen Z kids to get a tattoo as a symbol of unity and rebellion...or something.  Turns out the symbol bears a striking resemblance to either the 2nd SS Panzer Division (or the 4th SS Panzergrenadier Division's).  Avocado toast uber alles!

No point in trying to explain to them who the SS were. Their minds only go as far as the CC (Climate Change).

I think SS imagery is as cool as the next unashamed WWII nerd, but those tattoos are pretty generic "Z with a line through the middle" designs to my eyes.  If they were surrounded by a shield (especially with a similar corner notch) then we'd be talking.
