Imperial March. At least use its proper title.
While I agree. “Darth Vaders theme song” is more broadly recognized than the actual name. Also it might have something to do with the fact that it isn’t the only song named “Imperial March”, just the most current and popular one.

Germany Suspends 29 Police Officers for Sharing Racist, Far-Right Material on WhatsApp
It’s not like Germany surrendered and then all the fascism went away the day after. Occupied Germany remained a deeply fucked state well into the 1970s. And the hollowing out of the East German economy, following unification, only threw gasoline on the dying embers of far-right extremism.
Catching a bunch of German Navy guys blasting the Imperial March just reminds folks of how close the apple fell to the tree.

Germany isn’t the birthplace of fascism
Who said it was?

As an Englishman, I say fair play on a good, clean prank. People forget that the German sense of humour can be even dryer than the British.
Better choice than Wagner
Well Germany is where Stormtroopers come from, right?
Wow that’s an old one, I have seen that since probably 2005-2006? Did you have it to hand or go looking for it specifically?
Had it at hand. Saw it a couple of days ago in another thread.
oof, I didn’t make that connection until you said it. Outfits brought to you by Coco Channel and Hugo Boss 😐
I initially completely misunderstood “no deeper message” to mean “there is no message deeper than the one being sent”. Like, what message are they trying to convey??
I guess they meant, “don’t read into it”.
ain’t it ironic that my immediate thought was commentary on the british government, rather than, you know, that part of german history
Didn’t a British marching band play it for the Saudi King?
Reading the headline, I was revved up, and was about to be “that guy,” but then I read the article. The first line does state that it’s actually the Imperial March 😆
BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s Navy says there was “no deeper message” in the choice to blast the famed Imperial March — Darth Vader’s theme song in the “Star Wars” films
I like this music better
Too risky to click that at work!
Youtube doesn’t let you download hardcore porn anymore. It’s the Superman theme, which you can find for yourself.
Ooooh, das Übermensch!
