I mean, nearly a year ago, a Marine Corps company commander literally held a speech that was basically ripped right out of Helldivers 2, plus the theme song as sendoff........
Oh the irony, given that HD is meant to shit on the US and their warcrime behaviour specifically....
"Inspired by the discipline and functionality of THE STARSHIP TROOPER UNIFORM" Whoever made this knew what they were doing, and the idiot rotted pumpkin that re-posted it was too dumb to recognize the reference. (* to be un-missably clear, the government in Starship Troopers was explicitly fascist and officer uniforms took direct visual inspiration from Nazi uniforms. The inspiration for your inspiration is Nazis, because you want to be Nazis but even dumber).
When I first saw this movie in high school I thought, man those uniforms really resemble WW2 nazi uniforms. I later learned it was not a fluke and was in fact the authors goal. Without knowing, I knew. As a high achool kid. And yet people today, well, here we are.
