You say erroneously, I say dog whistle. Slaves were repatriated there. It’s a troll, and not the first time they’ve done this, see CPAC nazi symbol in 2021
I mean, this isn't an uncommon graphic design mistake, there's a whole subreddit for it. In this case it's far more likely to be a dumb mistake than an intentional dogwhistle like that suspiciously Odal rune shaped stage at CPAC may have been.
I'm OOTL. What dogwhistle stage are we talking about?
CPAC's stage in 2021 which looked like a Norse rune used by the Nazis.
Yikes. Was it ever confirmed deliberate?
They would never admit to it if it was.
You say that, but these are the same idiots that posted the "we're all domestic terrorists" to a signboard, so you never know...
See, to me, that is far less crafty and far more stupid. If this was an attempt to troll with a slavery dog whistle, that's far more subtle and they aren't subtle.
Not that I know of. The Odal rune is obscure enough to the average person that they have plausible deniability, so unless we find design documents or get a confession it's basically impossible to prove.
No, when they arrived at the venue it was already in place.
