Is the Einstürzende Neubauten tattoo real though?
Yeah, but afaik it's an experimental music group from the 80s that just happens to be German by nature of "being born in W Berlin post-war." I'm semi familiar with them but I just gave their wiki a quick search for "controversy" and unless you know something me and wiki don't, them being German isn't enough especially considering the founding members weren't even born until the 50s, I'll give them a pass for being -12 and -14 when the war ended.
What're we just claiming everything German is WWII even after WWII? Fuck Can, Kraftwerk, Amon Duul II, Neu!, and all that? No thanks, I'll cede my nationalism to you since I don't need it.
I probably should have realized this wouldn't be taken as a joke, but Einstürzende Neubauten has literally nothing troubling in their history regards to race afaik. I just happened to recognize their symbol.
My mistake lol, I definitely missed the joke!
