Put every state that was in the Confederacy under federal martial law (after we get rid of the Orange Bandit). Finish reconstruction. Iā€™m not joking I literally believe this should be done.

On the topic of sheriffs. Anyone taken a look at the national sherrifsā€™ associationā€™s logo lately?

Hans, our caps have skulls on them. Are we the baddies?

jfc, did they change it recently or how long has it been like that?

Not sure about how long itā€™s been the logo, couldnā€™t find a history of their logo. The whole org has been around since 1940ā€¦

Iā€™m not sure if thereā€™s something Iā€™m supposed to be seeing, but itā€™s just an axe? Thatā€™s a violent weapon, but itā€™s not as evil as a logo with a skull on it. Doesnā€™t seem any worse than the eagle with a talon-full of arrows.

It is a fasces, the object Fascism is named for. It is literally the symbol of Fascism.

However, after reading up a bit on it, it has a bit more of heraldic importance before it was co-opted by Mussolini and friends.

Yeah, tbf I only learned about the symbol in Italian studies and it only really became something scary to me when, after like 3 years of RIT Italian minoring, (included a load of history) we went to see the tomb of ā€œthe bossā€ and I saw the doors.

It may mean something else to others. To me itā€™s the symbol of the original fascist.

When the fasces shows up on anything created after ~1941, it has clear fascist implications. At best, the organization using it is profoundly ignorant.

More likelyā€¦
