    Let me guess.. your search history is all about Nazi right wingers and specifically calling them Nazi, correct?

    This shit doesn’t just randomly pop up. Your internet cookies must be wild.

    Right... because googling about historical figures makes you part of an ideology... There are valid reasons to be interested in the topic, mine is being a history nerd. You can't possibly condone an advertiser putting up this kind of ads, even if the person's cookies are full of fascist shit. But mine isn't. Profiling me fascist by Facebook or any other ideology by anyone based on my historical interest is incorrect.

    Amigo, I’m a full stack software engineer. I know how the sausage is made. You can argue all you want but you’re getting these ads because “the ingredients” you provide for said sausage. Don’t be so defensive when you just admitted that you’ve searched about Nazis.

    Maybe don’t allow your apps to track each other. Maybe clear your browser cookies and history. All of your browsers. See if that doesn’t help.

    That is an iron cross. It is a German symbol, not a nazi one.

    The op crossed out a hakenkreuz in the middle of the iron cross and on the hoodie in the bottom left.
