I don't think Jewish having family members gassed in concentration camps find the totenkopf eminently reasonable. 🙄
In the 20th century, Heinrich Himmler and the SS co-opted the symbol to represent elite, fanatical loyalty to Adolf Hitler. The SS-Totenkopfverbände (SS-TV), formed in 1933, were the concentration camp guard units responsible for administering Nazi camps, including Dachau. The symbol became their primary insignia, and many of these guards were transferred into the 3rd SS Panzer Division "Totenkopf", formed in October 1939 under SS-Gruppenführer Theodor Eicke, who had commanded the SS-TV.

The division became infamous for its brutality and war crimes during World War II, including the Le Paradis massacre (May 1940), where 97 British soldiers were executed after surrendering, and massacres of French civilians in Aubigny-en-Artois, Vandelicourt, and Beuvry. The division fought in the invasion of Poland, the Battle of France, Operation Barbarossa, the Demyansk Pocket encirclement, the Battle of Kursk, and later in Eastern Europe, earning a reputation as a feared "fire brigade" unit used to plug gaps in the German front.

Despite its elite status and battlefield effectiveness, the Totenkopf division was deeply tied to Nazi ideology and atrocities. After the war, the symbol was banned in Germany and remains a hate symbol used by neo-Nazis and white supremacists today.
