It was used during the 80s.
Like I said, I'm not telling anyone what to do. Everyone can feel free to call anything whatever they want, to use or reuse symbols as they see fit. The signifier is not the signified.
Just wanted people to know. Because like I said, if your goal is to communicate, you might want to know if you're using something that has another, emotionally-loaded interpretation.
- johnnyanmac 3y agoI'll keep it in mind, but this feels more like a case-by-case basis than something to be avoid at all costs (which was the tone of your original comment). We are 80 years out from WW2 so the only people who would really understand such a reference are the dying Silent Generation and neonazis/anti-neonazi cirlces (a circle of discussion I already avoid for the sake of my own sanity).
