Know Your Hate Symbols

Or don't know them.

https://www.adl.org/hatesymbolsdatabase

This is a database of white supremacist, aryan, nationalist, neo-nazi, butthole symbols used by said buttholes to identify themselves to each other.

Parents of young neo-nazis have been sorry that they didn't recognize the designs on their t-shirts, books, etc as white supremacist before they were too far gone.

Totenkopf
Neo-Nazi Symbols


ALTERNATE NAMES: Death's Head

"Totenkopf" is German for "death's head" or skull and typically refers to a skull-and-crossbones image. During the Nazi era, Hitler's Schutzstaffel (SS) adopted one particular Totenkopf image as a symbol. Among other uses, it became the symbol of the SS-Totenkopfverbande (one of the original three branches of the SS, along with the Algemeine SS and the Waffen SS), whose purpose was to guard the concentration camps. Many original members of this organization were later transferred into and became the core of a Waffen SS division, the 3rd SS "Totenkopf" Panzer Division, which engaged in a number of war crimes during World War II.

and not happy they have stolen the runes too... tho it does state runes are not necessarily racists...

those signs and symbols are
in general gross and ugly, sophomoric and crude.. inkwork from prison lifers
with little artistic value

at least they haven't stolen this..

Aug 8th! HH. Heil Hitler

They just said this on MSNBC. I didn't know the fake prez said this in his speech today and that there is symbolism behind it. This seems like Stephen Miller had a hand in writing this speech.

Don’t most people outgrow the need for secret clubs and special handshakes around age 10?

Somewhere else in this thread, the words “crude” and “sophomoric” were used. How true.

any normal "child" outgrows it by 10. The racist rapist is no ordinary child though. He is more like Damian 666 or the kid in The Bad Seed.

the same as 88.....
Because two 8s really represent. HH, or Heil Hitler. Therefore Aug 8th is 8th month, and 8th day. Or HH, or Heil Hitler!!! according to the Neo-Nazi thinkers and followers.

..Some sort of secret for the Neo Nazi sympathizers and thinkers..

This is not a secret anymore!

I had no idea, who would unless you are one of "them" or have knowledge about this sort of criminal lingo. I wonder if they keep adding to their symbols. Every number and half the alphabet have some sort of second, hidden meaning for this group of haters.

This was on DU earlier. Did you see it?

Everyone keeps ignoring Trump's use of the (formerly innocent) OK symbol as innocent, but he's been doing so at very revealing points in his rallies and speeches.

I don't think ANY of this is innocent or coincidental.

I asked my doctor in 2017 if he thought the moron was "crazy" since he is a psychologist and should know. He said, "Crazy like a fox".

I’m going out on the furthest limb of benefit of doubt, & assume the President/his staff do not know the significance of the number 88 in neo-Nazi/ white supremacist ideology....

Therefore, I recommend moving the date of this from 8/8 to 8/9.
So that it’s not a blaring whistle to those groups that, as David Duke proclaims, POTUS is “still with them”.

Not debating intentions. Only calling for awareness around symbols. DO NOT DO THIS DATE.”






I’ve been reading her tweets for about 2 years now, yet had never heard of this 88 and 14 stuff

I see it sometimes associated with Randian Objectivists and others who seem drawn to conspiracist thinking. It's a nearly featureless head, almost like a mannequin, in three-quarter profile that is grey in tone. What is that?
