That's a nazi concentration camp badge of shame, I think? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_concentration_camp_badge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_concentration_camp_badge "Political prisoner", in fact.

  If anything, this would be point in its favor. That is, if we are to care whatsoever about nazi rules from a century ago.

  You're attributing too much It's just a logo that's built around single triangle. It's like saying ACDC band promotes nazi ideology because it has a lightning symbol and gothic looking letters in their logo It's clear these Linux logos weren't done by professionals and by some examples not even with serious usage intent Compare above to: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Logo_suggestions?useskin=vector https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Logo_suggestions?useskin=vec... https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/International_logo_contest/Finalists?useskin=vector https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/International_logo_contest/F... https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/International_logo_contest/Overview?useskin=vector https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/International_logo_contest/O... https://www.without-systemd.org/wiki/index_php/Category_Logo/ https://www.without-systemd.org/wiki/index_php/Category_Logo... https://pkgbuild.com/%7Ejelle/logo-contest/ https://pkgbuild.com/%7Ejelle/logo-contest/ Let me be harsh and say: some people know how to design and some shouldn't touch graphic programs

    Most of the Arch Linux proposed logos are some dreary variation on the letter A. The pimp hat proposal is more meaningful. https://pkgbuild.com/~jelle/logo-contest/cerise/2-pimp.png https://pkgbuild.com/~jelle/logo-contest/cerise/2-pimp.png I also like Skeletor but he is unfortunately © Mattel.

  That's just how a lot of logos in the 90s looked, some colorful polygons, shadows, 3D effects...
