Are you seriously looking at this slop and thinking anybody was giving it a deeper consideration than ‘haha fuck yeah, badass’. I refuse to believe they’re thinking any more about the symbolism of the skull with the glowing eyes than they’re thinking about the symbolism of the explosion.
The only fascist part of the imagery is the border team names on the chests. Or just generally the celebration of their mission. The skull is possibly the least fascist thing on the coin.
It doesn’t have to be an exclusively fascist symbol to be a bad idea. Government agents should not be wearing or glorifying the universal symbol of death.
I do see what you are getting at. The whole thing is a bit like complaining about smelling someone’s fart as a tornado approaches.
