Like i dont want to dunk on kid you here, but i don't think I've ever seen a documentary or read anything with pictures about the nazis without an ss uniform being presented. Obviously we all have things we just don't realise until it suddenly clicks. But I just don't think we can say that not knowing about ss insignia is the default state even of those interested.
I can imagine being a kid and seeing an SS uniform without closeups in a documentary and your brain being like "yeah I got it, buncha military bullshit symbols and a swastika armband" without feeling the need to look closely at the exact military bullshit symbols, because you'd probably subconsciously expect an eagle or a shield or whatever until the first time you see an actual skull. And then that's the point where you're like "Haha, what the fuck?"
Obviously we all have obvious things we don't realise until suddenly we do. See all the "I was today's years old" posts or similar. I'm just saying it's not like they keep these symbols hidden, they put ss symbols right in your face in most ww2 stuff I've consumed.
True, true
