so it seems fitting.
Do people go around looking for Swastikas in stuff? Even if I was a conspiracy theorist, an X is still an X. Especially when it’s not even a symmetrical X, you’re really pulling at strings I think.
With the Slack logo, at least there was something tangible. Here there isn’t.
Damn you’re right, never saw it before
Is there something tangible? Slack’s logo is a symbol that suggests clockwise rotation while the version of the swastika that the Nazis used is a symbol that suggests counterclockwise rotation.
Especially given that the Nazis appropriated one version of a symbol that had many other versions/uses/meanings in different cultures, do we really need to equate every symbol or logo that has remote similarities to the swastika with Nazism?
Neither saying that Slack’s logo is a swastika nor that it’s a Nazi swastika. But there’s a certain similarity to a swastika which doesn’t exist here.
It’s a shower thought baconator, nothing more serious than that. I think the idea of a shower thought it to pull strings. You know, to avoid pulling something else. :)
Sometimes an X is just an X.
sometimes a shower thought should stay in the shower, but we have this sub. So.
I get the humor in it but this is probably not a road worth going down. Trying to equate the physical letter X with a Swastika feels like folks are really stretching it to the breaking point. Plenty of other things to shit on Musk over than equating an X to some nefarious Nazi conspiracy. That’s like straight up right wing Pizzagate territory.
Yeah. His actual support and amplification of literal Nazis is what makes him a Nazi, not whatever additional dog whistles he tries to make happen or stumbles into.
Ya’ll are positively obsessed with Musk and this drama. It’s insane.
Your personal hatred is blinding you, OP.
You’re in a showerthoughts sub, Fred. A showerthoughts sub.
This comment section is full of people who can un-Sans their Serif
I think people have forgotten what showerthought means. Not serifs, but sheriffs of bad thinking in the shower.
That’s a reach if I ever seen one
what? all i see is an X? i must be too pure hearted compared to all you deviants.
Yeah, I get more of a cyperpunk dystopia vibe.
I don’t doubt he’s a Nazi, but that’s still a bit of a stretch
