What? Why is that the opposite of a helmet with ears?

Ears on helmets were common in the 1920's but the Nazis almost wiped them out. It's only been in the last 10 years or so that they're finally starting to make a comeback.

I find assholes riding around with Nazi helmets something to dislike.

It had meaning 1945-50, but it means something very different since then.
