i can only speak about the irish side of things, but idk, in the same vein of "nazi punks fuck off", i'm delighted to see people using irish & celtic designs etc when doing explicitly anti-fascist stuff.

i want the fascists trying to take those symbols from us to know that their views are shit & fascism isn't welcome in any non-fascist community

    from the nordic side, i would love to agree but it's all contextual. the filigree and general style is usually fine but the space is fully coopted by nazis, metalheads, and nazi metalheads. they wear that shit publically.

    like, there was an mp for the sweden democrats (the party started as a swedish offshoot of the BNP) who got media attention last year for having a futhark-runic tattoo on his neck. he claimed he just thought it looked cool and didn't know what it said but it was quite obvious that it spelled out "ADOLF".

    all to say that one symbol is probably okay, but putting them together is always going to look suspicious. like that gog newsletter where they put a bunch of symbols for old slavic religions next to eachother, which all have in common that they're used by east-european nazis.
