    Someone I know cosplays as a Nazi. He doesn’t walk around the streets wraring an armband. He goes in full military gear, riding around on an original WWII german bike with sidecar at WWII historic events. You know, like a cosplayer.

      If true, then the person you know is a loser and someone should beat the shit out of them.

      It doesn’t matter how authentic it is if you’re cosplaying as a fucking Nazi.

        I mean, I think historical reenactments are a valid exception to the rule.

            It depends on how specific you want to get with the term, but from Wikipedia:

            …broader use of the term “cosplay” applies to any costumed role-playing in venues apart from the stage.
