There is a plantation just outside of Natchez that has this symbol all over the grounds, dating back to the original construction. Turns out, the symbol was used by Indians (feather, not dot) and other cultures, which the plantation owner was fascinated by.
I bet that place is an SJW trigger hall of wonders.
See, also the old tile floor of Ernst Cafe in New Orleans. They have a disclaimer posted on the wall outlining the history of the symbol, and how the floor was put in place before the Nazis came into power and co-opted the symbol.

Fifty little hammers and sickle?

It cracks me up when I see certain people wearing this symbol. They don't have a clue of what it used to stand for.

The saints emblem is a Christian symbol for the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

So, what you meant was they have a clue as to numerous things it used to stand for, but there is one singular thing that it was used for that people may not know about, amongst a trove of other things it stood for.

quote:Yes, that is correct. That "singular thing" went on for a very long time and is part of the history that goes with the symbol. Seems I have struck a nerve with some of you.

The red hats that Shriners wear(Fez) symbolizes Muslim victories over Christians in the town of Fez where the blood was so thick they dipped their hats in it.
