Due to Russia's stance on people or stereotypes considered gay, Germany went with an interesting theme for their Olympic uniform. Even though Germany officially denies that their intention was to upset Russia with a political message, many are taking this as a political message.

Watching the Olympics probably falls right below my care of watching any sport at all but...that's just amazing.
If there was purple I would see the immediate connection so I'm not too sure. Russia also had colourful fingertips.. I believe both had more to do with the olympic colours though... butttt seeing as Russia's treatment of homosexuals is disgusting, I like to take germany's outfits as a big FU.
