The Atlanta Falcons are getting crushed online after showing their new logo off via social media.
The team posted a new profile pic to X, formerly known as Twitter, on Wednesday. While it depicts a falcon, as one would expect, the signage is being called out for similarities to imagery Adolf Hitler-era Germany used in the 1930s and 1940s.

Fans immediately compared the image to old Germany.
“This just doesn’t look Reich, I mean right,” one wrote.
“This looks like something from Germany in 1942,” another claimed.
One of the more popular reactions read, “This would go crazy on 1940s German twitter.”
