I feel like you’re playing exactly into their hands. Make it similar enough that everyone is in no doubt as to what they’re saying, but different enough to give them plausible deniability if it ever got escalated.
Im not playing defence on either side here, this is pure lamentation :
You mean we need to be careful with lightning bolts too now? I used to draw them all the time as a kid. How many more potentially cool things are they going to co-opt and ruin for me?
Don’t talk about it like it’s an idle scribble in a copybook, they went to a lot of trouble to make that to put on their uniform. They know what they’re doing. Do not give them a single inch.
Drawing a lightning bolt ✅👍
Joining a fascist secret police group and putting a lightning bolt with fraktur-esque lettering on your uniform ❌👎
Gay in the time period. Pointy S was drawn by everyone on everything.
If it was ever a hookup symbol, which i haven’t heard a wit of before this momemt 20+ years later, most of it’s life was lived after escaping containment.

Then if they ever get called out on it: “It’s just a joke, calm down. Can’t take a joke?”
That’s literally what a dogwhistle is.
Figuratively literally.

In the 90s the “s” symbol was a gay hook up call.

It is the logo scrawled on the helmet of an active paramilitary that is serving our fascist regime. What the fuck else would it be?
