    Ironically enough, the Nazis banned those very "Nazi-looking" blackletter fonts because they were considered "Jewish-influenced" - despite the fact that Mein Kampf featured it prominently on the cover.

    But yeah... it's the typographic equivalent of a Nazi salute (ahistorical as it is) - and that's why they used it.
