(...) Thanks for the thoughtful critique yet again, Marc. The Eastern Block is an ironic look at the future of communism (similiar to Keith Goldman's Iron Reich, an ironic look at futuristic fascism - but not condoning it). And while the Soviet (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) The current discussion centers around a symbol of hate & the darkest chapter of modern history. A state-sanctioned doctrine of extermination cannot be compared to a failed economic system. This is orders of magnitude worse. -nk (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Actually, I believe that both the forward and reverse swastika (I have heard the reverse called a sylvastika) are both ancient symbols originating in india. The symbol is found in both ancient Indian budhist and hindu artefacts, and is the (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Agreed 100%. I see little to no play value or humor here. This is in EXTREMELY poor taste, and sheds a bad light not just on us as AFOL's, but also on LEGO as the company whose child-themed toys you've used to spread a very adult message of (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I don't think this is funny. The ship design is uninspired and non-humorous. The Adolf Hitler fig isn't very striking, nor is he funny either. The description of your MOC is pretty plain, and not funny. The only thing at all amusing is the (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX) !!

Interesting Spiffcraft®, but don't be surprised if this theme gets a cool reception. In fact, it's probably illegal to display your MOC in public in Germany (and maybe other countries). If I may be so bold, perhaps your new faction/theme just needs (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
