In the video the festival goers also appear to chant "Heil", a reference to the Nazi greeting "Sieg Heil." The displaying of Nazi symbols is illegal in Germany, as is denial of the Holocaust and glorifying the Nazi era. “One can only look on sadly and helplessly when one sees how these people are able to hold their far-right music festival pretending to be protesters."
