    Title is a bit misleading. He recognizes that hitler was evil. He just wants to take quotes from the good and the bad and put them on t-shirts.

    edit it seems some people think I’m defending him. I’m not, I’m just stating that the title is misleading as it makes it sound like he is only selling t-shirts with hitler quotes.

      If you’re walking around with a shirt with a Hitler quote on it, I’m gonna assume you’re a nazi.

      The title is 100% accurate, she is responding to the thing he is doing. It doesn’t matter what he thinks about Hitler if he is putting Hitler quotes on shirts.

        If you had read further than just the title you would’ve also seen this:

        As of publication, no merchandise with Hitler quotes is featured on St. John’s website.

        It’s literally not 100% accurate. He is not selling the shirts…as of yet.

        This is just a fact check, not a defense of Idiot Ranger.

        I didn’t say it was inaccurate, I said it was misleading. I’m not a Hitler supporter and I don’t think the actor is either. I think he just didn’t think about what he was doing. He even denounced Hitler in the article.

      Your edit is a bad take. It doesn’t matter if he’s also selling shirts with MLK and Ghandi quotes. Nazi shit is Nazi shit. Doing Nazi shit, no matter what his own stupid rationalization, makes literally everything else he does irrelevant.
