Yeah this guy is not an anarchist, he’s a german green voter that will bring up shit like the teutonic order or germanic tribes and shit which either means he’s an actual fash or an unscratched liberal that plays too many Paradox games.
Unless you’re German, you have studied history, or you’re a committed antifascist then if you know what a Wolfsangel is, you get all of my suspicion.
I honestly suspect this person is a fascist who is larping, although I haven’t seen any of their other comments so weigh that accordingly but if you know what a Wolfsangel is then you almost certainly know what it represents and who used it so using your knowledge of it as a defence doesn’t line up imo.
I’m pretty sad, I used to draw that symbol all the time on my papers and stuff as a kid and have always wondered if it was some kinda rune or something. Turns out its used by Nazis, neo and otherwise. 😮💨
Objectively, in my subjective opinion, it’s a cool looking symbol. And so is the swastika. (Cancel me now!)
There’s no minor coincidence that cool looking symbols that are simple enough to write/carve/etch became embedded in historical traditions and what you did as a kid is probably where a lot of runes and other symbols started from as well.
It’s just a shame that fascists coopt this shit and ruin it for everyone. Take heart at the fact that we are fighting for a world where, some day long into the future, these symbols will be able to be used again (ignoring the fact that the swastika is commonplace in the east in Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism for argument’s sake lol) without there being anything besides a historical factoid that some nerd will drop to mention that these symbols were associated with this political phenomenon that was called “fascism”, because fascists themselves will be little more than a historical footnote.
I never met any anarchist that gives a shit about pedantry over what runes the nazis are using.
Met a lot of liberals like that though.
