Donald Trumps re-election campaign has a new America First logo and it looks a lot like the Nazi eagle used by Adolf Hitler and modern white supremacist groups, according to many critics on Twitter. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Really? The direction the eagle is looking is the issue here? This is one of the biggest reaches yet.No, the fact that it uses many elements of the Nazi symbology is what is damning. Looking right.

"Eagles and circles are racist now."Spread-wing eagles with their heads turned in profile, clutching/perched on a circular symbol of the ruling party, is a symbol that's synonymous with Nazis. This isn't like "this character wears a lot of red, and the Nazi flag is red, so the artist is a Nazi sympathiser and their character exists to normalise fascist iconography". It's not a handful of disparate elements that are only connected to something bad through a bunch of mental gymnastics. It's a shitty rip-off version of a Nazi symbol that's been appropriated by the President of the United States. Same bird, same pose, perched on the same shape displaying a nationalistic icon. --- The pretty things are going to hell, they wore it out but they wore it well Now Playing: ACNH, Asdivine Hearts, For the King ...

Just a reminder that he made a tweet the other day about defending heritage which came out to 14 words -- an important number in white supremacists communities. The "14 words" is the common title given to their declaration of principles. And in a post about heritage.
Between that and this, he's directly coddling white supremacists. That's the Nazi eagle. In no uncertain terms. I don't care if Trump himself personally believes that or not, his actions have rendered any distinction inconsequential. He is functionally a white supremacist. --- 2020 going to be a CE kind of year ~ Panthera ... Copied to Clipboard!

But you know what? If he even addresses this, he'll say that he didn't notice a similarity or that it's not on him because he's a president and not a t-shirt designer. :/
