    3:03 hey, I found the source for the "Medic is not a nazi" quote. It's from Robin Walker (lead designer for TF2) himself, when somebody got a tour of Valve while Meet the Medic was in production. They shared their intel on the Facepunch forums, which are down for good, but I recovered the archive and shared it on r/tf2. I don't think I can share links, but if you search for something like "robin walker medic nazi" on the TF2 subreddit, you should be able to find it, posted by the same username as the one here.
    "Oh yeah, almost forgot about Robin's answer to one of the great mysteries of the Medic: He's not a Nazi. Not because of controversy or anything, but because it would be easy and boring to slap the 'Nazi' label on the Medic rather than trying to go for a truly interesting psychotic German doctor they're establishing."

      You're right, although what you mention in your comment is not from a single source, but split up between two different sources.

They shared their intel on the Facepunch forums, which are down for good, but I recovered the archive and shared it on r/tf2.

      The "long line of scientists chased out of town by an angry mob" thing comes from the description for Rottenburg in the Two Cities update.

    I’d like to point out a few things:
    -While he may not have respect for human dignity, he does have respect for human life. In “The Naked and the Dead” Medic says that he is a doctor and that no one will die on his operating table.
    -None of the TF2 or TFC (not counting TFC heavy) mercs have died under his care (except Sniper but he’s ok now) or due to his experiments
    -He has at least some medical knowledge, mentioning blood types, and in “Meet the Medic” he has various medical equipment that he presumably knows how to operate correctly
    -He does not operate on noncombatants (that we know of)
    -People he operates on assumedly have given consent to be operated on (maybe not knowing what they’re getting put inside them, but I digress)
    -I speculate that he does indeed use some form of pain inhibitor because in “Meet the Medic” the Heavy is awake but in no apparent pain until he breaks his own rib
    Just a few things I thought I’d add to show that he’s not _that_ insane. He’s just going mad.

I had a great uncle of German parents who actually fought Nazis, so there's that. Einstein was German, nutty, and lovable. Besides, one of Medic's best friends is the Russian Heavy. Considering he didn't flee to South America (a lot of Nazis did) and that Heavy is one of his best buddies, most likely he's NOT a Nazi.

      I know I'm a little late to the party but I'd also like to point out one of Medic's in Game Voice lines is "Teeeaaaammmm!!!" which is a reference from an old Comedy TV Show Hogan's Heroes that ran from 1965-1971. It's an American Show that takes place in a Nazi P.O.W. prison and focuses on Stalag 13 [a camp set aside for U.S. resistance fighters] It's overseen by the strict but bumbling Col. Klink [who is a Nazi]. So, if Medic is making references to a show, he must enjoy this show which makes a fool out of Nazis. Thus, I can make the likely assumption he was not a Nazi but most likely part of the resistance if anything.

  • @no-xs8bk

    What I think: It is confirmed by Valve he isn't a Nazi and that he would've been a teenager by the time of WW2. Many people have pointed out he speaks German in a Yiddish tone, this could mean he is Jewish. If so he COULD've been one of the many Jewish doctors who were forced to do experiments in the camps. This could be why he is the way he is. But again he was a teen so I assume he was in an Underground German revolt. Why? because that would explain why he is quite insane, and how he got his experience. He is from Southern Germany so he could've been apart of a German Resistance group. I think he is a Jewish Doctor who ended up going insane.

    The reason why I'm not inclined toward him being a Nazi is pretty simple. Medic's concept of superior beings is not based on birth and inherent superiority, but instead on effort and work.
    His creating things like the Ubercharge are applied to people not considered part of the "master race" by Nazi standards- the first recipient of the Ubercharge being Heavy, who is Russian. This is something people forget, that Nazis didn't ONLY hate Jews. They also hated Slavic groups, especially the Polish and Russians and considered them subhuman and worthy of conquest, enslavement, and/or extermination.
    On top of that, if we're using other things aside from characterization, the music Medic is associated with is in Klezmer style ("Archimedes" is the most obvious, but it's also in "A Little Heart to Heart"). Klezmer is originally a style from Ashkenazi Jews.

    I think that medic may have fought in WW2 as a medic, considering he has the white stahlhelm with the Red Cross on it, but saying that he was a nazi would be a bit of a stretch considering he had little to no medical training, therefore he would not have served in the SS, which required you to be a nazi and medically skilled if you were going to be a medic, and really the only other option would have been the Wehrmacht, which most that served in the Wehrmacht were not nazis and were just drafted, so there is a good chance that medic was not a nazi, but hey, that’s just a theory, A GAME THEORY.

      I know this is kinda old but he 100% isn't a psychopath.
      He is capable of caring about other living creatures, seeing as he used expensive body parts he even admits to struggling to get to revive Sniper, not to mention refusing to let Sniper go back into fighting. Plus, he shows genuine distress about Archimedes being killed, showing he does care about the bird, at the very least. And it is incredibly likely he is friends with Heavy, given in game stuff, shorts and comics.
      Also, psychopaths appear 'normal' and 'sane', pretending to care about others. They aren't impulsive nor likely to do illegal or dangerous actions because they aren't impulsive or emotionally driven like sociopaths.
      Given Medic caring for certain, few people, his ability to recognise when he's messed up (he makes excuses after betraying Sniper, implying he knows it was bad) and his impulsive and dangerous behaviour, it's far more likely he's a sociopath

      My point being that Medic is pretty similar to Joseph Mengele, and other Nazi doctors, except for two important thing. He was in purely for the research, and his research was more successful than other doctors' research (I mean he has a device that can heal your wounds in the matter of seconds, regardless of severity, he can turn you impervious to bullets with the same device, and he can bring you back to life, even if you are clinically dead for a long time)

The human experimentation part basically made him a war criminal on both sides of WW2, but afterwards he managed to cover this up and end up with the whole skeleton thing happening he lost any kind of license he MAY have had, and went into hiding. Somewhere in between, he steals the catering van, and eventually gets hired, continuing to defy modern medicine, and international law.

    If you read/watched the comics, you would know that the threat of making tfc heavy have baboons babies was true, but distracted him with a pen instead of the real thing, he states, "I just didn't have enough time to get to my medkit."

    Medic is definetly an interesting character. He's unpredictable, ruthless, and insane, but not totally evil. Him and Heavy are great friends (that also kinda confirms that Medic is not a nazi cause I don't think that Heavy would've friend with him) and we can see that he actually like the other ones. He's way more serious than the soldier and one of the smartest person in the crew. I think he would never kill his team because he always tought that they are friends, but that's justa theory.

    Medic is my favorite class to play! The Doctor (not anymore, he lost his liscense) assisted homicide! I hope Valve confirms that Medic is not a Nazi, is in fact against them, and even experimented on them, just because Medic is a evil genius. I also want Medic to be against the Nazi's because personally on my family; my deceased great grandfather is German, and fought against the Nazi's.

    I think Medic likely did attend medical school. As his fascination with bodies, humans and alike would likely need further education and I honestly believe he would've excelled. Yet the things he actually did got his license revoked.
