Full Version: Wikipedia swastika

It's right there in the middle of everything, one just needs to know what they are looking at. It's not always an evil symbol, but as far as I know, nobody has used it in recent times who doesn't have a long history with the symbol and who didn't use it as a symbol of nationalism.

Reversing the direction for some people redeems the meaning. Whatever, there are others set in the other direction if one looks for them. Let it mean what one presumes. They are there.

For Heaven's sake, today's the 1st of June not the 1st of April.

Look at the shaded grey missing piece near the top...... looks like the German Eagle used in there insignia's to me. And its "half" a piece of a full piece. Look at the rest of the pieces. See it?


The symbol below it.... Omega.. The end..... Another Nazi reference that Hitler used.

This is as much a stretch as many Wikipedia articles.

On second thought, maybe this should be a Wikipedia article.

interesting.

Half of the German Eagle also conforms to the missing area above the gray shaded half piece. I'm not saying anybody intended this and i'm not saying they didn't. Memes are strange things.

Maybe we could inventory the meanings of the other symbols on there as well.

BTW Omega was first used as the code name for the "Final Solution" before it became public knowledge hidden within the propagandists.

As for the other symbol's the one right below the Omega one is the Chinese character's for "finished". The rest of the characters I can lookup this weekend after my pissy ass mood is better. But I am sure they will all have some connection to the words "finished" and "end" and can be backed up by verifiable sources within the Nazi Party and Hitler. I seem to remember 2 other symbols on that globe that look very familar.

I'm being perfectly clear -- this is what happened when I stretched the lines at the center of Wikipedia's logo.


So it's literally a stretch.

It is kinda funny.

on a positive note biggrin.gif the swastika seems to be inverted, so maybe it means an end of to nazism? happy.gif

Oh I get it. You are talking about the jigsaw puzzle. In Wikipedia's jigsaw puzzle, you can make out an inverted swastika.

In my personal opinion, this is random, and is just what jigsaw puzzles look like usually.

However, if you personally believe it means more, then go for it.

And don't forget - in the lower right there's a capital J on its side. That's a clear reference to the Jews.

Why is my 300th post devoted to such a daft topic?
