Are tribal and/or loveist.
Banning everything that's arbitrarily given a "tribal" sticker is beyond stupid.
Nike isnt getting the Betsy Ross flag banned you loving spoon. I would say the exact same thing if Nike had the bright idea of putting a pepe on one of their shoes. It's a loving meme, but it was used heavily by alt-right types and so unless you enjoy PR hell, you don't put that on your products when you're a billion dollar company. The status quo is that national socialists=bad right now, and so unless you want to destroy your massive business, you stick to putting stripes and ticks on your shoes. This is capitalism 101, surely you should know this?
tbh they shouldn't, because it's just handing power to fringe groups. Like making the OK sign a national socialist symbol was entirely on the media. If they hadn't run with that story, no one would have thought of it that way except for the jokers on 4chan that thought it up, but they don't care cause it baits for clicks and no one else cares cause they're loving idiots
You're describing it like the whole thing was just a stuffpost on /pol/, and that nothing else ever came of it. The reason the media called it a national socialist dog-whistle, get this, was because it was being used as a national socialist dog-whistle. I bet Tarrant was just owning the media like the absolute mad man he is when he used the ok symbol in court. He really trolled those libtards by using a completely harmless symbol and associating it with white supremacy -- even though the symbol isn't supposed to be white supremacist at all!! loving journalists am I right? So gullible.
