    inspired by the discipline and functionality of the Starship Troopers uniform.

    Fucking pack it in boys. We’re done here. Literally from real life to parody and back to real life.

      Pretty sure this has not hit real life yet. It’s likely just a meme. The title says by Hugo boss who infamously had a hand in Nazi uniforms, though it’s apocryphal that they designed them.

      Ignore me. Apparently this was tweeted by Trump. I have no words.

        Ignore you? Naaaah, see what you’re doing is using your brain and seeing something that should be a joke.

      I’m willing to bet $5 Elon Musk prompted this bullshit and texted it to the president.

      Goddamn look like they rob the wardrobe department of a Indiana Jones set. Swear you just might as well slap swastika on them and get it over with.

        It’s almost directly mentioned in the text in the image, too. Inspired by starship troopers? The film which is all about a caricature of fascism? They couldn’t be much more blunt without actually using the word nazi

      The Onion needs to start writing stories where the Trump administration act like sane human beings, and show compassion to other people.

      At this point, it would be far more bizarre than anything they’ve done so far.

    (Based on the mistaken belief that Boss designed Nazi uniforms)

      Ahh, that’s a shame. It would be funny if Hugo Boss sued the US government for blatantly ripping off their Nazi uniform designs

      He certainly manufactured them.

        Yup, but didn’t design any.

          So it’s still appropriate to call them “Hugo Boss Nazi uniforms”

      In the same way that Hitler ruined the toothbrush mustache, yeah. A sharp looking uniform, pity about the visual language.
