I have a question about the RNC?
I'm new to all this political shit, I'm originally a Brit, so I'm not so clued up on stuff (aka bear with me and I'm sorry if this has come up before)

Why does the RNC hefalump (Winnie the Pooh Rules!!!) have upside down stars on the symbol? Isn't that a little odd? I thought they were usually drawn with one point up, not two. Is it meant to mean something?

Leaning right — or left — or either way? Only one leg to stand on?

5. googling got me this
Inverted Pentagram Symbolizes the morning star, a name Satan has taken. Used in witchcraft and occult rituals to conjure up evil spirits. Satanists use it 2 points up and pagans use it one point up. Any way it is used symbolizes evil. It matters not if two points are up or one. It matters not if it has a circle around it. It still is a symbol of Satan.

from http://www.exposingsatanism.org/signsymbols.htm

I wonder if this is no accident...

6. It is funny. I never noticed it somehow. But it is the occult symbol for
destruction. Although I think "satanism" is a probably a more modern fad, and that the occult tradition responsible for this symbolism is likely older. I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain of that.

Funny though, I honestly never noticed that. I have no idea why the Republicans would use it. Seems hilariously ironic.
