    In court papers, prosecutors described Timothy Hale-Cusanelli as a “Nazi sympathizer” who went to work at a Naval Weapons Station with a “Hitler mustache.”

    Gonna be honest, I kinda hate how the toothbrush mustache is a social faux-pas. It’s cool. It’s clean. It’s modern looking. There’s not many ways to style a mustache and having one of those very limited options being “illegal” sucks, as a guy who can’t stay clean shaven for more than 12 hours and is always looking for ways to style it. I was almost ready to say, “maybe he’s just a trendsetter.”

    Then I saw his picture.

    “Hitler mustache?” Man, that’s a Hitler cosplay.

      yeah this is definitely a case of anti-clickbait. the stuff in the article is so much worse than the headline.

        NPR is usually pretty good about understating headlines. Most times, I appreciate it, but this one could probably use some more meat on it

      That dude was at the Weapons Station looking like that? Shit’s changed since my day then. When I was there you’d get your ass beat for pulling that shit.
