IOC glorifies Nazi Germany

The official Olympic Games store features a Heritage Collection dedicated to the "art and design" of previous competitions, where "the world gathered to celebrate humanity. " One particular item is a t-shirt featuring the 1936 Berlin Olympics, designed by "one of the favorite graphic designers of the Nazis," Franz Würbel.

The t-shirt, "reflecting the aesthetics of the fascist era," was sold out in no time. A similar one – featuring the Winter Games of the same year in Garmisch-Partenkirchen – remains in only one size.

The 1936 Olympics were used by Hitler for propaganda and to demonstrate the "superiority of the Aryan race. " But the IOC doesn't seem to care.
