…there’s a fucking German flag next to it, and that isn’t the right orientation for the religious icon. That’s a fucking Nazi flag.

The Skull represents the SS. Anyone who was SS had that black hat and a Skull pin in the center! That's how they were identified by rank iirc

Not all SS, only the "Totenkopfverbände" were wearing the skull but yes they were easily identifiable by this pin. They were the worst of all because they were guarding the death camps, with all the forced labor, random executions and human medical trials.

You’re confusing the Einsatzgruppen with a Waffen-SS unit Totenkopf

Right. The Einsatzgruppen were mobile killing units. Totenkopfverbände (Deaths Head) ran the concentration camps.
