Perhaps one of the worst advertising slogan ever
To promote the soon to be open Louis Tussaud’s Waxworks in Pattaya, the management put up a billboard advertisement with a photo of Adolf Hitler saluting. One does not need an A1 in history to guess that this advertisement is bound to receive lots of complaints.
Almost anything with Hitler on it is bound to get lots of complaints. I guess not much explanation is required. You don’t even need to look at the content. You just know that the management and advertising agency is going to get lots of trouble for featuring Hitler on the advertisement.
But what surprised me more is the slogan they use in the billboard.
Hitler is not dead
Honestly, that is the last thing I look forward to.
Which advertising agency came up with this ads? And who approved it? Does anyone study world war 2 history? Or watch movies like Schindler’s List? Didn’t they read about the protest on the German AIDS advertisement featuring Hitler?
I guess not.

Well.. Bad advertisement that gets people’s attention is good advertisement after all.
Even though its politically incorrect in a major major way.
Some people just wants publicity – good or bad…
Some people don’t bother to do research although they might be paid thousands to do a job.
