This is great, and very honourable, but I would just draw Loss.

Of course to represent the Common Nazi L

[–] Bloodwoodsrisen@lemmy.tf 13 points 1 year ago

They're gonna be at a loss for questions at what it means

[–] Dalimey@ttrpg.network 11 points 1 year ago

Oh thank god I wasn't the only one who thought that.

A four square board to bash a ball on Nazi faces

[–] Ragdoll_X@lemmy.world 131 points 1 year ago (9 children)

That's only if they draw an actual swastika. Nazis are so dumb that half the time they can't even draw a proper one.

[–] Goathound@kbin.social 48 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good grief they're like AI-generated hands

[–] MurphysPaw@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Perfect description!

[–] piss_fit@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Haha yeah some fucking clown drew a load on a wall near me and got every single one of them wrong, but all wrong in different ways

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago

That's almost impressive. Got a pic?

[–] gon@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

this is what sucks so much, they fuck it up and make it hard to overwrite, but if you don't overwrite it everyone can still tell what they were trying to do...

[–] onichama@feddit.de 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

r/heilhortler
...wait wrong website

[–] craftyindividual@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

No don't bring pleasant memories of the former place with the r/subsections. It's too soon. Still that was a great sub.

[–] sweeny@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Some of these definitely aren't trying to be swastikas

I have been staring at all 3 bottom pics for at least a minute and I cannot figure out which one you think is supposed to be amongus

[–] Jazard23@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Middle picture, most left "attempt". Draw an imaginary line on the right side of it, this might help you see it

[–] Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Those look AI generated

[–] Zalaxci@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Ha! You still haven't seen the flag of Golden Dawn, a greek neonazi party which was trialed due to (commanding) violence and even murder multiple times. Its symbol is everywhere on the streets as a graffiti.

[–] Dalimey@ttrpg.network 32 points 1 year ago

Turns out 4 boxes arranged as a square is a really versatile art foundation

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Always reminds me of this postcard I found in my grandma’s album. It’s just 4 L’s. Luck, Love, Life and Light.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's because the nazi's co-opted the symbol which was a symbol of peace

I first learned this when exploring a particular Zelda dungeon.

[–] hydroel@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a bit more problematic in Zelda as Zelda games had a tendency so far to have come out after WW2

Wasn't the one in Zelda oriented differently to resemble the manji instead of the Nazi swastika?

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

You know what they say:

If it's straight, you're peaceful mate.

If it's askew, they hate the Jew.

[–] TheMeta@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Which is honestly a common misunderstanding. Just depends on context. Some temples that I have gone to have several banners/paintings with the swastika at various angles.

[–] sapo@beehaw.org 25 points 1 year ago

finally i can turn nazis into loss

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.one 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty rare to see a swastika that's drawn well enough to do this

[–] debil@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You can still lovewinsify it, albeit as poorly as the original "artwork". Still gonna be better though.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 1 year ago

I am partial to the Iron Front ↙️↙️↙️ but this new approach is pretty good! The Iron Front arrows were used to cover the swastika during the time of the actual Nazis and it was a powerful statement. Seeing it being a popular symbol at soccer/football games is a good thing

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you're feeling lazy, then either draw a 🚫 (I don't know what it's called) over it, or do step 2 and turn it into loss.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Or you could just do the first step in this and turn them into preschooler drawing of a house windows

[–] JineteDeAbuelas47@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Or old school Windows 95 logo with a bit more effort

[–] Ktheone@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

That "hey man wtf >:O" made me chuckle lmao

[–] Ertebolle@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can honestly just draw the box and consider it de-swastika'd, the other steps are to make it look pretty.

[–] funnystuff97@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Hell yeah, going around making Windows logos. That's my jam.

[–] BartsBigBugBag@lemmy.tf 8 points 1 year ago

Hooray counter-crime!

[–] Nepenthe@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I love this so much, I audibly gasped. The one and only downside is how much of an asshole I'd feel being forced to scrub the "graffiti" off for work
