Concerned about Nazi symbols?

I see a lot - too many - posts about people concerned about Nazi symbolism, and as a tattooer of 14+ years who has been around Nazis, and racist skinheads, and other deplorable kinds of people, I am here to tell you that they are not quiet or cheeky with their symbols. they are loud.

there are many databases on the internet to let you know what is or is not a hate symbol. that's your best guide.

your hyena is not a Nazi symbol. your lightning bolt is not a Nazi symbol. your skull isn't either. I will also tell you that if you don't look like a Nazi, people aren't going to think you're a Nazi. I am a bald, white man with a red beard and runes tattooed on my fingers. no one has ever accused me of looking like a white supremacist because I simply don't have *the vibe.*

educate yourself on hate symbols. figure out what they are and aren't, and then get your tattoo.
