Nazi symbols are bad, and prompted widespread shunning, because they signal support for Nazi behavior.
That's why "look, a swastika!" and "look, a seig heil!" was a successful argument against someone.
But Trump 2024 ran on Nazi behavior, and won, so spotting the symbols isn't what it used to be.

It's a shame. We could use some orgs that oppose hatred of Jewish people.
Fascism takes root as the information environment decays to the point most people cannot tell truth from bs.
Plus, fearmongering and creating a scapegoat is (frustratingly) effective at gaining support... /1
Plus, there has been an entire political party hell-bent on gaining power to force us to submit to their wildly unpopular policies.
All this while the wealthy control our politicians and focus on turning us... /2
They also divert money away from education. Making it so fewer people can recognize the writing on the walls. /3
Now that he's back, all we can do now is fight like hell and refuse to bend the knee to US Fascism. /4
However, we need to show the oligarchs we will not go down easily and they do not and never will own us.
Fuck fascism, fuck Trump, fuck our oligatchs straight to hell. /end
The people doing Nazi salutes and using Nazi language are also people pushing the cruelest and dumbest policies.
The connection needs to be reestablished in the public consciousness.
