By the way, Joseph Stalin triples the number of people murdered by Hitler, and Mao Ze Dong killed nearly 7times as many people as Hitler did....
"Mao Ze-Dong (China, 1958-61 and 1966-69, Tibet 1949-50) 49-78,000,000
Jozef Stalin (USSR, 1932-39) 23,000,000 (the purges plus Ukraine’s famine)
Adolf Hitler (Germany, 1939-1945) 12,000,000 (concentration camps and civilians WWII)"

Stalin died in 1953...
But in my opinion the picture of Hitler when he sad Heil, it is a problem...And in my country, Hungary, it is a bigger problem, because we live in middle Europe, after the nazis and after the communists, and the radical side of the politics rise and rise and rise. Because of hate of communism and some people like gypsies. And some f..cker crazy people get this beer and said: Ye mean, Hitler on a beer! I simpatyze whit this asshole! I believe in Mein kampf, this is the true! But i do not believe in Holocaust....
It is a bigger problem in Europe than in the U.S. i think.

...and which a lot of guys now say shouldn’t be depicted...? Much the same IMO.
First of all, does it really look that much like Adolf? Damn, it’s just the moustache, isn’t it?
Second, there seems to be an Atlantic ocean of cultural differences between Scandinavians and USAians on such topics. I really don’t get the prudishness from the other side. Like your governments isn’t responsible for the killing of thousands of souls in Latin-America, Asia and Africa by supporting what rebels they thought might suit USA best. More years and less people, but I really don’t get you guys.
Third, I miss the cartoon afficionadas that protest on the "use" of Tintin. I guess the label is also a pun on how Belgium treated it’s African posessions for many, many years.
The stupid Austrian invaded my country too, with thousands of Norwegians being killed during the WWII (which btw didn’t last from 41-45), but that don’t mean we can’t joke with him. I also can’t see anything refraining us from making fun of Tintin.
BTW, what do you guys think of the Jesus/Easter label from the same brewery?

And Stalin and his guys killed a lot of people in the subregion of Eastern Europe, like in Hungary... Our country had some hutments, compounds and extermination camps too in the 50’s...We had a f...er tyrant too, in the 50’s, called Rákosi Mátyás. He was crazy and savage...And he killed a lot of hungarians too...
