hard right can't create anything so they adopt, subvert, and corrupt whatever tickles their tendencies.
They really have no idea what the Nordic peoples live/d like, and their conception comes from comic books and movies.
I used to study Norse esoterica since the early 90s, love the Eddas, but none of my runestone rubbings are going on my cubicle wall because fashie bois see "Lief carved these" and think I'm one of them.
If this was just some random dude who had no sketchy imagery then yeah I'd be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. IMO this tattoo doesn't solely mark the wearer a Nazi.
However, this man is a cop who, seconds later, murdered pulled his gun on the unarmed black woman in the picture, who was subsequently murdered by his partner for hurting his feelings. He's a Nazi for sure, he's probably associated with a Nazi group (besides the cops lol), and he acted out his Nazi power fantasy.
Eh, I'd argue 17th century but certainly fan art. Those staves are basically the Icelandic version of modern Wicca being related in any way to actual Celt religion.
But they look cool, and if the function of a symbol is to focus attention and direct thought, then they will probably work as well as any other legitimately ancient symbol system.
That said, I don't think this pig was looking for safety while traveling.
They're not going to stop it till they get smacked again, we all know this. Their politicians are literally calling for civil war on live television. I don't imagine many cops NOT being white nationalists at this point.
