SEATTLE (JTA) — Amazon has drawn some Fuehrer fury — over a logo featuring a cardboard box and a piece of tape.

The ecommerce giant released a new logo for its smartphone app on Monday after some users compared the former logo to Hitler’s mustache.
The former logo featured a piece of tape with ragged edges above the company’s trademark curved arrow to mimic a taped-up cardboard box. But users said the juxtaposition brought images of Hitler to mind, with the tape as his mustache and the arrow as his mouth.

It’s not just a ripped scotch tape, it’s a ripped scotch tape that has a similar shape and is right on top of a smiling mouth. Looks like a happy little cardboard Adolf to me

The new logo ditches the ragged tape edges. An Amazon spokesperson only commented to outlets on the new design.
“Amazon is always exploring new ways to delight our customers,” the spokesperson said. “We designed the new icon to spark anticipation, excitement, and joy when customers start their shopping journey on their phone, just as they do when they see our boxes on their door step.”
Leftists see nazi imagery everywhere while they support rabid Jew hating terrorist supporters.
People are insane
How do people see anything other than the end of a piece of tape.
That’s on the same level as Dr. Seuss being racist.
OMG! Get a life! Seriously! Move along. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.
Hitler smiled?
Lotta crazies out there
This trivializes the evil that Hitler did . Farrakhan called Jews “termites” and no one got excited. Amazon comes out with a logo that maybe looks like Hitler if you’ve had too much liquor, and people get bent out of shape.
Stop with the trivia and concentrate on the real anti-semitism.
How on earth are there not other problems in peoples lifes. Shtuyoth!!!
Oy. Vey.
New logo looks like a nose picker
