Why?
It is a grotesque and morbid hobby, and there is something very unhinged about somone who collects it. That stuff should be in a museum.
But Lemmy collected the stuff.
Here is what he told music journalilst John Robb five years ago about this:
What’s the problem? People seem to get confused with the uniforms and being a Nazi. I’m the least Nazi person you could ever meet. I’m the total opposite of a Nazi. It’s just that they had the best uniforms, the best gear. You wouldn’t want to collect the Belgian army uniforms would you.

"...the best uniforms, the best gear"?
Have you seen what he has collected?
Shields, many daggers, swords, Swastika flags, hats. That is just a bit more than "uniforms", don't you think? Uniforms are quite neutral and peaceful when compared to daggers and swords!!
For photos of what Lemmy's collection consisted of see the photos here.
Scroll down to the bottom of that page to find the real Lemmy.
Yet Rob Dew on Infowars lamented the death of Lemmy because he was a 'hellraiser'!!
So let's see:
1. Donald Trump - total fascist but loved by Infowars;
2. Lemmy - closet Nazi but loved by Infowars.
And with all that white supremacy I'm detecting...
Remind me again: didn't we fight against the Nazis in WW2? Didn't my grandfathers and yours land on the beaches of Normandy in June 1944?
