    here it is on an 18th century pirate flag

    that one is an entirely dissimilar skull and cross bones

    here it is on a US special forces patch

    that one is 100% intentionally the SS-Totenkopf

    I just don’t think it is reasonable to say he’s a Nazi based on this tattoo alone

    I’m not saying he necessarily secretly considers himself a Nazi, but he does have an unambiguously Nazi tattoo and his explicit claim that he was totally clueless about its meaning for 18 years is simply not believable (especially in light of other evidence, like his reddit posts defending other solders’ double lightning bolt tattoos).
