Hi all,
Not sure this is the right place for this post but I come to you with a question and possible debate.
I was looking into making a logo for myself and possible making it my avatar on the forum and entropialife aswell. I wanted it to involve my name and SS seemed like a good start. Now I think you know where this is going :p
So I went looking online and I noticed the Shutzstaffel emblem and I tought well this looks realy nice I can do something with this. I'm a verry open minded person and well I just think the 2 s'es in the form of a lightning works and looks realy nice. I don't mean just copy paste a nazi symbol What I mean is taking the concept and turning it into my own symbol. Will it be banable If I just make this into a symbol? Is it a smart Idea? what I just stick with it or go with a hole other idea? any sugestions?
To be clear I'm not a nazi sympathisant nor will I ever be I just like the look of the symbol and how it corelates to my name. after all isn't this the same way Hitler took the swastika? cause it looked nice to him? It was already an ancient symbol. In my opinion the moment we link these symbols to the nazi cruelty doesn't that mean they won? and all the lives lost in WWII where in vane if u can't even choose something that looks nice and that you don't link to something in any way but people will give you a slap on your wrist or worse just cause they do?
any opinions?
