      Notice there is no double sig in there. Also note that Rodnovery is a neopagan religion, associated with nationalism. It’s the Slavic equivalent the Norse pantheon fetishism you see in the West in the form of Odinism.

      You should assume they’re Nazi symbols because they are, even if Nazis stole a lot of symbols from everyone else. The sig was first adapted into the double sig in 1929 to be used as the Schutzstaffel logo

      “those emojis”

      They’re not emojis, at all. Emojis are pictures with a very specific and limited set. They’re ascii characters.
      You calling them emojis is “grandma calling your Xbox a “Nintendo Station”” level dumb.

        Those aren’t standard ASCII characters. They are Unicode. They are closer to emojis than anything else.

        Before you try to lecture anyone you might want to spend more than 10 seconds on wikipedia next time.

        There’s a multitude of ways to correct someone without coming off as a pedantic prick in the process

        You really didn’t have to add dumb at the end there. We all make mistakes, and emoji can also be interpreted and implemented in pretty different ways
