I used to know a guy who I thought had really cool Norse inspired tattoos. Turns out he was a white supremacist and they were representative of that ideology. Stupid bigots ruined Norse iconology for me.

I recognize the logo there, they call it "Eskimo" here.
That company is historically and culturally unaware, it seems. >.>

The Nazis had very talented people doing their logos/emblems. Their uniforms during WW2 are also the best looking ones compared to any other faction. Especially officer uniforms. They look badass and intimidating. They were designed by a very well known fashion design house after all.
Jewish football players get antisemite slurs from the crowds all the time in Europe
And black and homosexual players get A LOT of stick from the fans in Russia, it's pretty scary
It's strange that Hugo Boss don't use it as a selling point.

And so today I learned about "Golden Gaytime," whose slogan is "It's hard to have a Gaytime on your own." I love the world.

Golden Gaytime could obviously be commented on, but Aussie Rainbow is seriously tripping me out. An Aussie Rainbow consists of lime green, a regular green, and... a darker green?In Australia it's called streets ice cream

I was at an outdoor Smashing Pumpkins concert in Houston, when Evanescence were playing earlier in the day, some guy covered in Nazi tattoos walked up to the barrier and was giving the band Nazi salutes.
I'm from Ireland so had never seen anything like it before, I was shocked that the security guards standing a couple of feet away from him didn't do anything. Whole thing was very surreal.

8 is a lucky number in China because it's pronounced the same as their word for fortune. 88 is pretty common and means double fortune. My guess is that's the background for the Crazy 88s
although that director is rather fond of using a certain word a lot in his movies.
You think the dude who made a movie about a group of Jews killing Hitler is secretly a nazi?
I agree (even if, of course, the change completely makes sense).

The one on the left says "Green and Golden." The Paddle Pop on the left though says "Aussie Rainbow" and appears to only be two colors, which is a lot less than most rainbows I've seen. I don't know, maybe it is only something someone from Austrailia would understand.
I guess I'm getting way off-topic though.

A buddy of mine had small SS lightning bolts tatted just behind the left ear ended up with it for that very reason. He was in prison and broke up a fight between two black prisoners in front of his cell who refused to move it elsewhere when asked (considered highly disrespectful in prison). He shoved them over the rail and they fell from the second floor, getting seriously hurt in the process. Since one of the guys was in a gang, it put crosshairs on him until the Aryan Nation stood up and protected him. He got the tat because they insisted, even though he wasn't about that life. At least it wasn't "Peckerwood" in giant block letters across his beer gut, like this one guy I delivered pizza to once.

I don't know about that OP. Being American necessitates having to applaud frequently, so he may have just figured out a way to do it without using his hands every time. It would also be an exotic reference, which I understand is the value of many tattoos.

That's always how I've used it and I'm the complete opposite of Chinese.

That combination sounds vile.
Solero shots shouldn't be combined with anything. Throw that stuff in the trash.

Well to be honest I don't know what they represent either. Is it a gang thing ? For most of the world a bandana is just a bandana, it's not really in the same league as nazi symbols (and even then some stuff like 88 may not be common knowledge).

Original Solero was sooo good though. Also, fuck Neo-Nazis.
Phil is a weird one. Writes songs about unity and how racism is trash but then gets drunk and yells out white power. I seriously doubt he is a Nazi sympathizer. He's got a big mouth that's for sure.

yeah, there are videos of him happily fist-bumping black people, and hanging out with Kool Keith acting all best buddies.. that's not what neonazis usually do. he's probably just an idiot who can't help being an idiot, especially when drunk.
that white power salute was SO fucking idiotic though, just so pathetic.. he needs therapy or something.
You are overthinking it mate. Green and Gold are the two colours Australia uses to represent ourselves in sports etc. The one on the right is a mixture of those two colours.
When I was 15 years old or somewhere around there we had alot of Neo-Nazis in Sweden, they had their headquarter in the city I lived in at the time, wouldn't go a day without me seeing them around the city, marching and being cunts.
I fought alot of Neo-nazis in my school days, even had friends join them, buying their Dr.Martens boots and so on.
And they took about every symbol the Vikings had and used them, so you can forget wearing a Thors Hammer or something like that here in Sweden without being labeled as a Nazi.

He has yelled "White power" at shows and given the Nazi salute, but to my knowledge he doesn't have any neo-Nazi tattoos.

Yes being a nazi and having direct support of Hitler is entirely legal and covered by the 1st amendment.

In later interviews he says he regrets Pantera using the Confederate Flag in their image, that it was stupid.

was pretty much the same in Rauma, Finland. in the 90s. saw neonazis every day. they used to chase a black friend around the city, in broad daylight and no one really gave a fuck. they also threatened to gather all their "members" and show up at our skatepark and beat everyone up.. it was real fun living in that fear, never knowing when 50 nazis might show up and beat us with baseball bats and shit. and often there were only like 2-4 of us at the skatepark..

No but I do believe Nazis traveled back in time to ancient China and manipulated the Chinese language.
I saw a black guy with a swastika on his forearm in London. Cashier in skater shop in Camden Market. As a group of German students (with quite a few skater/punk types and ovall pretty leftist) we were totally weirded out.
On that same school trip a couple of Aussie girls in our hostel thought we'd enjoy them doing the Hitler salute as a way of greeting us. Turns out we didn't.

Free speech shouldn't apply to people sporting nazi symbols. I've been out and about with my grandpa ( no longer with us) who was in the big red 1 in ww2. He's told me that he didn't fight from North Africa to Sicily to Normandy and the battle of the bulge to see that kind of shit at home. He lost good men under his command to the nazis and it would make him tear up to think that there are people so ignorant they would wear those symbols of hate and bigotry.
Fuck everyone with a nazi tattoo, flag, symbol, whatever. Get that shit out of here.

Yeah. Actual WWII Nazis would've shot them down on sight, basically. It is pretty stupid.

careful mentioning that gets the liberals angry about how all speech should be respected.
But yes I agree.

my face at the thought of that.
Never understood Neo-Nazis. What was even appealing about Nazis?

Never knew about the 88 significance and now I feel super bad cuz one of my account names finishes with 88 because it's my year of birth. Fucking Hitler.
