Random Thai cultural phenomena, part the thousandth: Hitler Chic.
Yup, those are t-shirts of Hitler dressed as, among other things, Ronald McDonald and a Teletubby. And I remember reading about the high school in Chiang Mai that horrified local expats when its senior chose the theme for their annual parade and celebration: Nazism!
It really does seem to stem from genuine ignorance about Nazi history. He's a funny little man with an amusing moustache, and they want to dress him in adorable outfits. Awwww! Except AHHHHHHHHH!
