I found a boat load of nonsense on that page, but, not this poster. Can anyone confirm this.

It was definitely posted to the department's Instagram.

The issue with the poster is it's based on literal Nazi propaganda.

Also Americans don't call America their "homeland" "motherland" "fatherland" or any of that shit, that wording is uncommon in the US and intentional as a Nazi dogwhistle

We don't call it the homeland, but regressive have been trying their hardest to get us to with the most obvious reminder being the Department of Homeland Security which was named in 2002.

When Bush announced the creation of that department I was 18 years old. I remember thinking it was dystopian at the time.

Naming a department in a country founded by immigrants using a term reminiscent of terminology used by nazis that they celebrated defeating about 50 years prior as part of a nationalist propaganda movement certainly was a thing.

I know this, I was looking for confirmation they posted the other picture. Idk I'm really hoping they didnt. I am aware of German history especially that part. Thank you though.
