      It’s a spin-off of “FCK AFD” which are stickers widely used to oppose the most popular far-right party in Germany. I think that’s where the design came from, feel free to correct me though.

        Actually I think the root of it is “HKN KRZ”, Hakenkreuz, aka Swastika. It was Nazis who came up with the format. There’s also “NZS BXN”, “box Nazis”.

            Box as in the Klychko brothers.

            There’s no real equivalent of “to punch” in German, usually you’d use “schlagen” but that means to beat in general. And then “Nazis boxen” is a Kangaroo thing.

            Also you’d be hard-pressed to find box wine in Germany. Sangria, yes, but not wine.

        I’m pretty sure FCK NZS and NZS BXN existed before FCK AFD stickers. In fact, the AFD one is an outlier, because it doesn’t follow the “remove all vowels” rule.

      Oh no, it’s so much worse. This is a BRAND NAME, FCK NZS is a company that sells “antifascist” clothing and accessories. Capitalism has successfully commodified antifa.
