Looks more like a clueless wannabe biker than an actual nazi. Early Hells Angels and other motorcycle clubs appropriated Nazi symbols, helmets, etc. Their goal was more shock value than anything else. Hells Angels were founded by WW2 fighter pilots that couldn't adjust to normal life again, so I can kind of understand how waaay back in the day the original dudes might have felt like it's NBD because they killed a bunch of nazis. TO BE CLEAR, I'm not going to bat for the Angels or other 3%er clubs, they are shit people who do awful stuff, but context kinda matters, and I don't think some suburbanite who's trying to dress like a fake biker is necessarily a nazi.
