    The Hitler Youth (German: Hitlerjugend [ˈhɪtlɐˌjuːɡn̩t] ([​IMG]listen), often abbreviated as HJ) was the youth organisation of the Nazi Party in Germany. Its origins dated back to 1922 and it received the name Hitler-Jugend, Bund deutscher Arbeiterjugend ("Hitler Youth, League of German Worker Youth") in July 1926. From 1933 until 1945, it was the sole official boy's youth organisation in Germany and was partially a paramilitary organisation; it was composed of the Hitler Youth proper for male youths aged 14 to 18, and the German Youngsters in the Hitler Youth (Deutsches Jungvolk in der Hitler Jugend or "DJ", also "DJV") for younger boys aged 10 to 14.

    you mean this group ? :)

    I'm probably missing something but where does this come from? Did someone else mentioned it in this thread? Why are you mentioning it?

    Funny you get into detail when you don't have to (could have just asked 'do you mean the hitlerjugend?'), it shows you actually can expand on a subject. It also indicates you refrain from it when it actually matters for a reason.

    I'm guessing the Time magazine cover that says "The power of youth"

    Ah yes, I agree that's likely it. So.. just a loose association i take it.

    Because Hitler was also a time person of the year and Gretas front page quote talked about the power of youth. :tearsofjoy:

    It's taken 80 years but when you think about it.. They both flail their arms about in speeches and scrunch their faces up and manage to provoke social classes into following them based on character and determination to make a change. She got Jungsturm written all over her haha.

    Yeah but he old and the front page quote probably wasn't about youth.

    Ah ok, so you do make a bigger association out of it.
    Anyway, thanks for explaining (some people could take example of it) :)

    I actually thought it was clever.

    She could do like a Nazi salute but a piece of paper is coming out of her hand into a bin. :tearsofjoy: it would be the Greta salute lol.

    Had I alerted the world of Facebook about my recent finds and developments, yes, I'd expect memes to be made.

    I'm sure many alt right nitwits agree its quite clever. But although i missed it at first it seems a very obvious association which makes little sense (so not that clever) other than the literal translation of the words youth and storm.

    edit: guess the other word was power not storm. Corrected myself :p

    After reading that I think it's even cleverer than I initially gave it credit for.
