    Dont forget the Grey Wolves symbol: heavy metal finger sign, but curl the end fingers slightly

    You see them in germany sometimes…

      In Germany, the sign is actually more commonly used as the Schweigefuchs (“silence fox”) which is used to make people shut up. However, people have picked up on the fact that this usage is a little problematic at times, e.g. in some classrooms Kurdish children were confronted with teachers making the sign.

        Schweigefuchs

        Woah. I think I’ve misjudged a few people who seemed otherwise quite normal… thanks for the extra context

        I’m super mad the fascists took the silence fox away from us. That was a really nice one.
