The German government last week published a new brochure on what it believes to be antisemitic codes and symbols.

Over 80 pages, the brochure catalogues a list of concepts, terms and images ranging from Nazi-era propaganda to contemporary symbols against Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

Intended audiences for the brochure include teachers, “who can use the booklet as supplementary material in the classroom”, and other educational staff, who can use it as a “guideline to help recognise any anti-Semitic remarks in the working environment”.

Germany is one of the key supporters of Israel’s genocide, despite its own history of committing genocide against Jews, Slavs and Roma during the Second World War, and in Namibia in the early 20th century.

    my google just pulled up shit with words, which i would like to argue for the purpose of this is not what we’re looking for. stuff that has gained meaning in multiple languages or rather without language, like the three arrows.

    how the three arrows have become memetic communication basically over the years? i am not communicating well right now
