Yeah, the two together is one of the options on there. For the same reason that some search queries return those runes with a 1488 appended

“[…] that they are all now nazis.”
“[…] people are going to treat you like you’re a nazi.”
Spot the difference. I’ll give you a hint: one of them involves being a nazi, and one of them involves being mistaken for a nazi. You managed to misread my comment so badly that you thought I was saying that everyone who has 88 in their username is a nazi, and that’s because you can’t read.
But even that’s totally irrelevant. I specified 1488 in my comment. You know anyone with 1488 in their username who isn’t a nazi? Because if you do, I have bad news about your nazi friend.
Even moreso with ϟϟ. Much like 1488, it only means one thing. The people who use it virtually always use it to mean that one thing. It is very hard to stumble into accidentally using it, and if you do, you should be embarrassed for having stumbled into using nazi symbolism.
There is one innocent explanation, with a big caveat: some child-left-behind in marketing googled “Slavic emojis” and found this page, and clicked on a few random ones, not knowing about the connotations some of them have.
Caveat: they didn’t send the email in Germany, so someone knew it was nazi shit and sent it anyway
they are now all Nazis
Well that’s not what I said, is it? My favorite thing about Lemmings is that none of you can read. Do you maybe want to try this one again? I’ll give you a free redo
There’s no misconstruing, 1488 is a nazi dogwhistle whether someone intends it to be or not. If your username includes that number, you should delete that account and make a different one, because people are gonna treat you like a nazi.
Just using 88 is slightly less unacceptable, but the same thing applies; if your username includes that number, people are going to treat you like you’re a nazi.
ϟϟ has exactly one meaning in the modern day. You can use those runes without knowing that meaning, but that meaning is still there. It is nazi symbolism whether you intend your use of it to be or not.
You know it’s fake because he would have used his mugshot
It’s bad because the SS appropriated it and stripped all other meaning from it. It’s like using the number 1488 in a username. It only means one thing, and while it’s possible to stumble into it by accident, it remains a white supremacist dogwhistle
The main issue is that ϟϟ was both totally irrelevant to the topic besides being vaguely Slavic, and also literally the logo for the SS. In the modern day, that is its only connotation. It’s not in its original context, it’s just random runes thrown together
Sent a newsletter to half their customers containing “Slavic runes” (literally the logo for the SS) to promote some Slavic fantasy game
Imo it’s even odds between some marketing child-left-behind googling “Slavic runes” to add to their email, and some 4channer on the team thinking they’re making a funny joke. The fact that they recognized the issue enough to know that couldn’t send the email in Germany, but sent it everywhere else anyway, makes me lean a little bit more toward the latter


The Toy Box is in my list of favorite fictional ships, right next to the Silvana and the Bebop


There’s quite a few that I’m surprised I’ve never seen anyone talk about outside of dedicated forums.
Akudama Drive ruled start to finish. It’s worth watching for the animation alone.
Xam’d: Lost Memories feels like it’s only a few years old, but it came out less than a year after Gurren Lagann. In 2008. Bones makes real pretty shows.
Speaking of Bones, Carole and Tuesday was solid. My only issue was that it didn’t take a hard enough stance against AI, but also it came out before ChatGPT and long before AI generated music was a real issue so I can’t really blame them.
transohobic company
Yo imma need some blue text about that
It’s not proof that the higher ups are nazis, but it is literally the logo for the SS, not just some generic slavic runes.
Ditto here. If I’d seen it in my own inbox I’d be sending some choice words their way
It was the fucking logo for the SS
Fuck nazis and fuck you

Fun fact! The picture of the girl in this meme comes from this video, (relevant portion about 3 minutes in) in which she’s by far the calmest and most reasonable person involved. She’s not even angry, she just has kind of an expressive face, and she looks like that for all of exactly one frame
Some psycho combed through this video frame by frame to find the least flattering picture of her possible. Rightoids need to die out man


Where do I go to claim them?
Sora No Manimani is basically propaganda for your local high school’s astronomy club. You know it was made by space nerds because they get all the visuals right. Never seen a show so faithfully recreate the actual night sky
