what the fuck does being a buddhist have to do with anything do you let priests babysit your kids because they claim religion too

Buddhism has used the Swastika for over 2000 years. Some of the swastikas in 1010’s collection are Buddhist in origin. But not all of them...

1010 is about as Buddhist as he is smart.

Why they gotta refer to short sleeve t-shirts as "ss tee" on their website?

Most brands do that, chill

To this day I still seriously wonder which sponsor or entity was responsible for that masquerade of a Nine Club episode complete with as many Buddhist props as they could find in the background with not one justification, that the Nine Club guys themselves didn't seem happy doing at all, and was foolish enough to throw symbols of another culture just like that as an attempt at a semi-subliminal visual excuse for someone who manages neo-nazi bands. Honestly the most outrageous shady shit and terrible marketing move I've seen pulled in skateboarding, yet it seemed to fly over the heads of a lot of people on here at the time who were too busy digging up old antics to be shocked by the gratuitous and filthy cultural reappropration.

Or maybe it was an idea of the Nine Club guys themselves - e.g.. hey let's make this episode look like a farce, so that hopefully people understand the fraud from the get-go, but I really wouldn't be surprised if somewhere, a PR dude should legitimately reconsider their whole career, if not existence.

Some lame reasons why bikers use it ...

Why do bikers use the Iron Cross?
The Iron Cross began to show up as a biker symbol in the mid 1960's. Since so many of the World War II generation associated the symbol with the enemy, Adolf Hitler, the younger generation found the perfect tool to show their rebellion. ... Bikers do like shocking the citizenry and the Iron Cross still does this today.

The Iron Cross symbolizes the courage of the old Prussian warriors, the great victories of the Bismarck era and the valor of the German soldiers of the First World War. Officially the fascist symbolism was removed from the Iron Cross in 1957.

Who removed that ‘officially’?

How even?

Today
Today the Iron Cross on biker wallets may have different meanings to different people. For some bikers, they choose wallets with the Iron Cross simply because it is a design that has become embedded in the biker culture or because they like the design.
For other biker’s having an Iron Cross wallet is still an outward declaration of toughness of rebellion and living life by their own rules.
Many of the younger Biker’s of today choose wallets with the Iron Cross design because they believe that this Cross does represent honor and pride to their organization and to the open road.
Whatever the reason why a Biker may choose a wallet bearing an Iron Cross the design itself is not evil nor does it represent evil it is simply and eye catching design that has meaning whether aesthetically, personally, or as an organization to the biker.

hearing/reading non-motorcycle people talk about motorcycle culture is just as lame as hearing non-skateboarders talk about skateboarding

I'm not cool. I'm not a straight edge biker trying to son people about motorcycle culture on a skateboard forum. No ones cares you know hot slang and your buddy Jimmy lets you use his bike lift for free because you put him on your

Last night Joey T was posting some “George Soros is funding a race war” shit on his insta story, now I’m looking at my aces like “gawdamnit.” I should just ride thunders.

Does anybody else  think that Red Baron pizza should change its mascot? I always (okay, since high school) wondered about the connotations with that one. Those iron crosses were on his plane.

They could probably change it to Ernst Jünger's Storm of Steel Stuffcrust, but trench warfare isn't quite as sexy as dogfighting in a biplane.

About the iron cross from the Anti Defamation League website:

"By the early 2000s, this other use of the Iron Cross had spread from bikers to skateboarders and many extreme sports enthusiasts and became part of the logo of several different companies producing equipment and clothing for this audience. Consequently, the use of the Iron Cross in a non-racist context has greatly proliferated in the United States, to the point that an Iron Cross in isolation (i.e., without a superimposed swastika or without other accompanying hate symbols) cannot be determined to be a hate symbol. Care must therefore be used to correctly interpret this symbol in whatever context in which it may be found. "

The germans still use an iron cross on their planes and helicopters.

The US Navy still uses the iron cross for one of its awards. The army used it too in the past.

Agreed. Using “trench” to promote any type of food makes it less appetizing. “Trench Trucks” might be kind of cool though .
