this seems like a good resource but i would take it with a grain of salt because calling ACAB "white nationalist" and "neo-nazi" is kinda uhhh 😬

yeah but i don't think acab is at all the same right now as the nazis co-opting the swastik and turning it into the swastika lol

idk it just feels weird to me when like a small group of neo-nazis or white supremacists start using something the wrong way and people are so quick to abandon it. i think stuff like this really lends to that idea and i don't like it. but i appreciate the resource

Of course! Sometimes it’s tough to be able to tell, as a lot of the hate symbols and phrases are disgustingly discreet if you don’t know what to look for.

really hate that some of these signs are using symbols from norse paganism. I have a necklace that has the three triangles and pagan runes ontop of a goat skull. none of it has anything to do with neo-nazis, but now that I see this... I almost dont want to wear the necklace anymore. x.x

yeah i feel you. white supremacists have co-opted my favorite elder futhark rune, too

Keep wearing it hun. Don’t let them sully your faith. You aren’t wearing it in the bad faith that they are. 💙

The site is a bit too list happy when it comes to adding things on just because a handful used it, that’s for sure. 🤣 I am happy that they at least put little snippets of context too though to counteract it somewhat. Still, would be nice if they slowed their roll a bit.

Yeaaa like 4/20, I didn't know it was his birthday and can see how they'd use the fk outta it haha

mothdust.bsky.social•37 days ago

yeah that one too. i've literally never seen anyone use 4/20 or 420 in a way that's not weed related lmao

They do add a section that says that it has been adopted by some Neo-Nazis recently, but it is still a valid phrase. They also say that the context of how the phrase is used is important. 🐱👍
