Great post -- I think even the "ironic"-Nazism should be evaluated on its use of these symbols which is obviously functionally identical to the role that symbols like the salute played in Nazi Germany... The problem is that symbols don't inherently have any meaning, so these (ironically anti-post modernists) appeal to that Motte when challenged on their deliberate signalling of what their political movement is.
