Why didn't the Nazis make their flag blue or yellow, or literally any color other than red?

Why didn't the Nazis make their flag blue or yellow, or literally any color other than red?

Red is literally the most threatening color there is and its in our biology to recognise red as "danger", also I thought the nazis wanted to distance themselves from communists yet their flag is blood red.

red is power

Attached: Hitler new symbols.png (2000x1000, 615K)

I remember watching in a documentary (TGSNT I think) that Hitler designed the flag to be distinct and hold power, to attract people; Red is probably the most distinct and attention grabbing color, and it was also used as a somewhat piss take for Communists and Liberals because it was “their” color and they were/are polar opposite ideologies

they still could've changed their flag after getting power, so when they went into war they looked more like the good guys.

Red, white and black was also the colours of the German Empire

...Hitler did not design the flag.

They wanted Europe to feel the danger and power that was the german awakening.

light blue would look better

look what it was up against

Because the Whiteness and the swatstika represented resistance to communism, it also attracted Communists to be converted

royal blue is the best color for flags imo, light (baby) blue would ruin it.

The flag is suppose to strike fear into the cummunists, so red seems to be something associated with fear and anger, it's quite genius for such a flag to be the most hated symbol in the world.

He did, this was to give the Nazis a symbol, he was an artist after all.

Because red is associated with socialism

Jesus fucking christ you just have to look at the flag of the german empire

>liberals

Flag checks out.

Because they were designed to be the bad goys.

There is a story behind it

nazis and communists made the colour red "bad" in the eyes of the west since the end of the war

You're trying to present a fuck-off vibe from a position of insecurity.

All poisonous or venomous animals which might otherwise get eaten if others didn't see they were poisonous use juxtaposition of red, yellow or black.

Wew lad you are special, it's red because it represents the colors of the german imperial flag black(swastika) white(circle) red(background)

that color makes me sick

Red also harks back to the crimson of the Roman Legions.

Red is ok

Red can mean danger but not as clearly as the combination of yellow & black imo. It's our associations with color schemes that makes them good or bad, example: Yellow & black can symbolise danger as we often poisonous creatures bearing these colors (wasps, snakes, frogs etc.). Therefore we see this color scheme employed in hazard & warning signs etc. Red can also symbolise anger, passion, lust, blood, sacrifice.

nazis copyed communist memes

Because it was a symbol of strength not a symbol of submission you soy riddled faggot.

Black, white and red were the national colors of the German Empire.
During Weimar many nationalist parties used these colors to show their disdain for the Republic.

red was once considered the "color of kings", dating back to ancient rome. the togas of diplomats was colored red, the roman kings kept on wearing it and so it became a symbol of power. it was also the most expensive colour.

nat SOC... think about it

Go read Mein Kampf. Hitler himself writes a detailed passage as to why red was chosen. ... or you can choose to sit here listening to all of the lame theories being passed on here.

>the Nazi party is just an ironic board
>we were just memeing
Bullshit
This is retrospective bullshit

They used red and communist tagines and slogan to grab votes

Afterwards, when they rose to power, somebody questioned their socialist past and they came out with the "joke was on the communists".

That's purple, fuckwit.

Unironically this.

1/ Because the German Imperial colours were black, red and white as opposed to their cucked colours which are black, a very ugly light orange and red and the swastika flag was supposed to represent the rebirth the German empire hence they adopted those colours
2/ Exactly because it is threatening

best colours right here

>the nazis wanted to distance themselves from communists yet their flag is blood red.
They wanted to challange them and got a huge part of their following from former communists which is also why the commies found them so dangerous and systematically attacked them.

spoofing communist fans into their party meetings to get them on board

You're supposed to strike fear into your enemy not be nice.

the taegeuk is the most important part, you faggot

Theyre socialists

Do you actually need a Jew to explain this to you?

This, pretty much.
The entire Weirmar republic was ripe for communist takeover, so NSDAP just copied the commie rhethoric and imagery, tweaked it a bit and made it their own.

How'd you think it would have all went had they succeeded back in 1923 and taken power?

I think they would have adopted more imperial german iconography and flags, since the population would not have been so radicalized yet that you would have to turn into literal pseudo commies to maintain any order.

Of course that would have been to allies just as dangerous seeing as the new nazi flag.

Attached: 220px-Flag_of_the_German_Empire.svg.png (220x147, 320)

Obiviously, but do you think they'd act against Germany in 1923?

To associate themselves with the workers' movement. That is also the reason why they called themselves a workers' party, despite being nothing of the sort.

good job completely misunderstanding him

lurk more faggot. it's all there

literlly a retard flag design.

I think it would have made little difference. Anglos and french would have agitated for war, aided by commies who would infiltrate into their system.

Hitler was a socialist that hated banks and finance industry.

Hint: jews are known for what ?

But the commies would be weak in 1923 thats my point.

Noah is that you?

he actually did. it says it in the greatest story never told.

True that, it might not happen right away, but i think a war would be inevitable.

Even if allies do not outright freak out about their defeated enemy emerging out of the blue with the same exact symbols as before, i think both the banking interests and increasing communist infiltration of the western nations would inevitably lead to a moment when someone will attack germany.

It symbolises the blood of the ndasp members killed during the putsch

That's aesthetic as fuck.

>color
Nice proxy.

Women are attracted to red and purple. It looks like ripe fruit to those foragers. Maybe if you werent a massive cuck u would know this.

Because German original flag was black with red. Red was associated with Communism, Buddhism, women and good fortune.

Because Hitler wasn't a cuck OP

That was the point. It was meant to stand out, catch your eye, and intimidate those who were against it. Have you never read Mein Kampf? There's a whole section about why he chose that flag and it's evolution and development.

Doesn't matters which edition, Americans took over all the media.

Their flag is red / white / black because these were the colors of the Reichskriegsflagge in the German Empire.

The part of the Mein Kampf that comes from was written while Hitler was in prison and had no power. But I wouldn't expect someone posting with a commie flag would know that much.

>nazis were the original shitposters

National socialism is not to far from international socialism, but they are in denial...

Because it was at the same time the same colors of the German nationa flag (not the Weimar sellout flag)

Reminds me too much of the finnish airforce flag :D

Actually Hitler describes in Mein Kampf that he considered blue for the flag beacause he loved the aesthetic result, but he avoided it 1) because red was more powerful and 2) because white and blue were the colours of Bavaria and he didn't want the movement to be thought of as a Bavarian movement.

this these people are retarded

They just used the original German flag colors and redesigned it to be a nordic flag with a swastika
