What were they thinking?

The Man in the High Castle is a new show produced by Amazon Studios, based on the book of the same name by legendary sci-fi author Phillip K. Dick. The general premise of the book and show is 'What if the Nazis had won World War 2?' Granted, that's a pretty interesting thing to think about... until some ad exec has the bright idea of emblazoning Nazi imagery all over the cars of a Subway train. https://twitter.com/KeeganNYC/status/668892106509967360 The ads have since been pulled, though it's not clear whether Amazon agreed to take them down or if the Metropolitan Transportation Authority just though 'yeah, we probably shouldn't have allowed this to happen.'
