Currently it is possible to find and choose between different styles to celebrate and make a marriage official. The union between two people—before a social or religious institution—has always been an event within society. However, recently in Mexico, due to the theme, the holding of a "Nazi wedding" caused controversy, which aroused different accusations and reactions.
According to the digital newspaper El País , on April 29—the date of the 77th of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun—a couple decided to celebrate their wedding party, involving Nazi elements and clothing.
It goes viral
In the photos, the groom was dressed as a Nazi Schutzstaffel officer and the bride arrived in a Volkswagen Beetle painted in the colors of the flag and covered in swastikas. The future husband pointed out that they chose to do it because they adore Hitler and related that:
Hitler was a vegetarian who saved his Chinese American Phone Number List country from hunger and returned to his people the lands lost in World War I. His friends and family adored him. We were led to believe that Hitler was a racist, but he came to greet Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympics.
Although this Nazi wedding has been strongly highlighted by media and organizations in favor of peace and tolerance, some wonder where is the free circulation of ideas? It should be noted that the party did not incite acts of violence or excesses.
But of course, the images of the Nazi wedding, which took place in the state of Tlaxcala, went viral on social networks. Between speeches of approval and prosecution, local authorities, government bodies, and religious institutions came out to express a position of condemnation.
For example, Jaime Romanowsky, a Jewish specialist in genocide issues, pointed out that the "boyfriend's" assertions are unknown in much of the world. “To deny the Holocaust is to deny the obvious, something that the perpetrators themselves have admitted.”
Reactions to the "Nazi wedding"
In a tweet, Romanowsky called to remember the terrible events that took place on European soil during the Holocaust, crimes in the history of humanity. In these, more than 6 million people died because of Nazi ideology.
For public authorities, events such as the Nazi wedding show that there are still sectors of society that give importance to historical events, which should not be glorified. In this sense, the State Commission on Human Rights (CEDH) called to promote values and attitudes that reject violent behavior and address conflicts through dialogue and reflection.
For its part, the Diocese of Tlaxcala pointed out that memory must encourage the growth of initiatives that put a limit on evil, referring to the victims of the Holocaust. Likewise, he emphasized the work of the church as a promoter of life, freedom, peace and justice.
However, in this social context, does it do more harm for them to celebrate a personal event with a Nazi theme than the authorized production and sale of content that clearly incites violence and hatred?
Violence as entertainment
Violence is a phenomenon that is easily found in traditional media such as television, newspapers or on virtual platforms and video games. In addition to being profitable.
Occupying violence is profitable, in Mexico, the consumption of materials that make an apology - that is, they create a discourse in which someone or something is praised, defended or justified, generally in a fiery or vehement way - about drug trafficking.

The histrionic portraits of the kings of crime, which began as films of average quality, are now present in novels. They have even established themselves in the first places in sales and imports of Hollywood productions.
According to a study carried out by the consultancy Lantia Intelligence, in the first six months of 2022, 12,802 deaths were recorded in Mexico, with disputes between drug cartels being the main cause of deaths.
Raising your voice about the wedding theme could be diverting attention from the larger problem. And where is the responsibility of governments in regulating the glorification of narco-series and violent content?
