It has Third Reich ties, but if you knew anything about the German Faith Movement, you'd know they didn't gain any special treatment from the Nazi's.
I'm not excusing what he's done or trying to deflect the fact that he's very likely a Neo-Nazi, but someone asked what the symbol represented.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Faith_MovementThe German Faith Movement (Deutsche Glaubensbewegung) was closely associated with Jakob Wilhelm Hauer during the Third Reich (1933–1945) and sought to move
Germany away from Christianity towards a religion based on National Socialism.[1]
As usual, I am correct and you are not.

They advocated for National Socialism, which is the english transliteration of NaZi (Nationalsozialismus). Therefore, they are Nazis. This isn't difficult.

ANTIFA are the contemporary analog to the valorous and heroic French Resistance fighters of World War 2.

Hey Gravemind, nice signature. Glad to know you support fascism when it agrees with YOUR ideology.
I specifically like that racist Malcolm X, a man murdered by his own ideological group because he dared to say others didn't understand Islam. I think he learned what he needed to about Islam on that day, wouldn't you say?
Before you try race baiting on a public forum try not to be on the opposite extreme of a Nazi because in the end you're just another fascist no one will ever listen to.

Go ahead and be ignorant, the Swastika is older than the Nazi's and not everyone wearing it supports them.

Here is a religion that uses the Swastika but wont even eat root vegetables because it can harm insects.
Hindus don't use that symbol, Jains do, and even so, they don't really use it anymore.
If a European person uses that symbol, he/she is a Nazi. Symbols are defined by the societal zeitgeist, and this is our zeitgeist.

No, I don't, Occam's Razor is sufficient. The symbol is banned in Germany as a Nazi symbol. As usual, I am correct and you are not.
Wow this thread is interesting. How do you come up with this shit. My housemates are currently tripping balls and stroking curtains and not even they could manage this.
