"Lost in the kerfuffle over whether the U.S. Coast Guard would no longer consider the #swastika as a symbol of hate was a far more troubling development in #antisemitism. The new #US #ambassador to #Poland, #ThomasRose, delivered a speech in which he absolves Poland, and by extension, the #Polish people, of any responsibility whatsoever for the #Holocaust.
This is a distortion that cannot be allowed to go unchallenged or unrefuted.
Addressing a conference on antisemitism in #Warsaw organized by the International Association of #Jewish Lawyers and Jurists, Rose declared categorically that Poland “has been burdened with the moral stain that was never its own, the persistent belief that Poland shares guilt for the barbaric crimes committed against it,” adding, for good measure, “It’s a grotesque falsehood and the equivalent of a #bloodlibel against the Polish people and Polish nation.”
Fuuuuuuck this guuuuuuuy...
"a state in which racialized voter suppression, mass detention and deportation, and Fascist-style population engineering schemes reshape American governance and society."

"We should not be surprised that a U.S. government entity was attempting to make nooses and swastikas more acceptable. Each expression of racism has its own history in America, but in 2025 they come together to advance the goal of creating an American ethno-state supported by ideologies of White supremacy and Christian nationalism—"

Me: Apparently the organizers felt they didn't have enough flags for such a grand event, so they raided a museum.
L: <eyebrows up>
Me: They pulled some historic German flags.
L: <smile fades>
Me: They have small...
L: ...
Me: ...swastikas, yes.
So, yes, they never went away. No, you have not heard about this event because the swastikas are black on black metal, you need to get pretty close to see them.
Welcome to the turd reich, my friends, happy Friday.
Whenever I read something about US soldiers and swastikas, my simple mind goes to an event which prompted me to waddle to legal and have the following conversation [edited for brevity] with military lawyer L.
Me: So, about the big event this morning.
L: The dedication?
Me: Yes, the one with speeches, a marching band, easily a thousand soldiers from several NATO countries.
L: What about it?
Me: There might be career implications for someone.
L: I'm listening.

Y’all. Lots of people are reporting that the Coast Guard swastika news (https://mas.to/@markwyner/115583795290081702) was fake.
It’s interesting that so many people are quick to believe a lying nazi who was given a nod by the U.S. dictator.
Receipts are attached. These screenshots are from the actual policy published BY the Coast Guard ON THEIR WEBSITE.

Nah. This actually happened. WaPo sucks, but this guy sucks more.

The U.S. Coast Guard reverses course on policy to call swastikas and nooses "potentially divisive."
@AssociatedPress reports: "The term was a shift from a years-long policy that said symbols like swastikas and nooses were 'widely identified with oppression or hatred.'"
As per The Meidas Touch this morning, the #US #Fascist #Regime backtracked on the decision to remove the #swastika and #noose from the Coast Guard's divisive symbols policy after mass outrage.

Coast Guard Reclassifies Swastika as 'Potentially Divisive' Instead of Hate Symbol
Reclassifying the swastika as 'potentially divisive' rather than a hate symbol seems like an attempt to balance historical context with current sensitivities. However, given its association with Nazi atrocities, the decision might risk downplaying its deep impact on communities affected by hate and ...
Starting December 15, the U.S. Coast Guard will no longer label the swastika as a hate symbol but instead classify it as “potentially divisive,” aligning with recent policy shifts under the Trump administration’s approach to symbols and triggers within military settings. While the swastika, a symbol historically linked to fascism and anti-Semitism, will be downgraded, display of the Confederate flag remains prohibited, although minor or historical uses may be permitted. This move reflects broader efforts to modify military policies on hazing, harassment, and symbolism, amid debates over what constitutes acceptable expression and its impact on readiness. Will this reclassification influence military culture and tolerance? More here: https://wapo.st/3Mbd9a6 #CoastGuard #Symbols #MilitaryPolicy #HateSymbols #Swastika #ConfederateFlag #MilitaryRights
Swastikas and Nooses Are No Longer Hate Symbols Under New Coast Guard Rules
The new policy also prevents Coast Guard officers from immediately removing white supremacist symbols upon discovery.Coast Guard Reclassifies Swastika as 'Potentially Divisive' Instead of Hate Symbol
This policy shift treats the swastika as 'potentially divisive' rather than categorically a hate symbol, while reinforcing a ban on the Confederate flag. It raises questions about how symbols are contextualized and what thresholds trigger disciplinary action within the Coast Guard.
