So, first, my tattoo is covered by long sleeves, and I will rarely walk around without sleeves. However:

I am on my way to Germany in a few days (Blue card and all!) to start work, and I have a Klingon Trefoil tattoo on my left forearm (It was the first of many planned Star Trek tattoos on that forearm, with the IDIC and the Starfleet Delta coming soon). I have been working myself into a frenzy worried that people will immediately think I am some sort of fascist for having this tattoo either because it’s Klingon or because they won’t know what it is…

Do I actually have anything to worry about? Or should I just get it removed/covered?

    Tattoos in general, sure. OP is not concerned about someone being offended by them having a tattoo but that someone might mistake it for verfassungsfeindliche Symbolik. We’re not chill about that.

      This is true, I know I have no legal concerns (it’s an image from fiction…) but the societal ones are my biggest worries.
