So I was going through /all and this admin is snooping at vote counts for posts in his instance and then posting it publicly.
Just a reminder that these kind of petty people exist. Pick a trustworthy instance or better yet, host your own.

Like the swastika, is not the only use it has. In the gaming/Twitch community, it’s definitely not massively used as a hate symbol.
Sad news for your argument, gaming culture (gamergate) and Twitch (crackergate) have a long history of white supremacy. I will agree that it’s spun off to be less about overt nazism and more about white male fascism. Doesn’t change the gross history of the symbol, and i’m still going to treat anyone who posts frogs as being way further right than I want to deal with because it’s always the guy posting frogs who ends up driving people off the server further down the road. TL;DR It’s softened from nazism to reactionary but is still very much right wing shit.
