Naming Your Child Adolf Hitler

If you're a white supremacist, I can tell you one guaranteed way to make sure your kid will grow up to not become a white supremacist and instead hate you forever - name him Adolf Hitler. The linked article is about how the kid couldn't get a cake with his name on it or something. I don't know if it qualifies as news, but if it isn't about the economy I'll take what I can get.

When I read this article earlier today, I studied the picture carefully for quite a long time. Then I finally gave up and read the caption to figure out which parent is "mommy" and which is "daddy." Lesson? Nazis and white supremacists are freakin' UGLY!

Oh, and their other kids' names are JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell. I fuck you not.

The guy swears his kids' names are purely phonaesthetic, that he named the boy Adolf Hitler because he likes the way it sounds, and I guess he also likes Aryan Nation, etc.

If that's true, he should've named the kid Cellar Door.

Also, the neck tat and cigarette-mouth and week-long-bender eyes tell me the dude collects SS regalia.

Yeah, the article really skirts around the obvious fact that they are white supremacists. Until it mentioned their daughters' names, it almost seemed as though it could have been some sociological experiment they were conducting.

Some people say racism is primarily a cognitive failing and only secondarily a moral one, but these geniuses should clear up that misunderstanding real quick.

Well, they continued to denounce (sort of) they were racists in the article, but the grocery store that refused writing the kid's name stated the parents had asked for a swastika on the cake before.

It's pretty fucked up.

This must be making the rounds on facebook or something because I read it yesterday after one of my friends posted it there. Anyway, my favorite part was where they said they couldn't imagine why anyone would think the name was offensive. So yeah, further proof that those people are fucking retarded.

I still can't figure out which is the "daddy." Are there lesbian white supremacists? I mean, I'm sure, but... is it the one without the dangly earrings?

LoCo said...

OK, OK, not a dangly earring, but in fact a neck tattoo. Thanks Viking Parole Officer.

You folks know you're on thin ice when 69*5m0k33n points out your heteronormativity...

I read several articles about this family, and the following factors:
*named three kids after Nazi icons
*obsessive preoccupation with authentic Nazi trappings in clothing and home decor
*both out of work and collecting disability/welfare
*stubborn refusal to accept that kids' names aren't going to fuck them up some day

makes me think that they're most likely mentally handicapped in some way. I'm not saying that flippantly-- I mean it. They're literally retarded (or else Asperger's, or some other mental disability that leads to such behavior.)
