I changed my avatar, how "PC" is ATS?

So much idiotic bs about this damm flag, I wanted to see if ATS would allow it as an avatar. Or is it really just like everywhere else?

Disclaimer>> I am not racist or prejudice in any way, the only color I see is green..

Flame on I can take it..

I love you for the effort.

In my neck of the woods it's some KKK #..

It's not the flag that bothers people around here, it's the flag on the giant truck with the headlight rack and the beer cans and the loud kids without hair on their heads....

Still nice effort.
See how it goes.

To quote Sheryl Crow, (who I can't stand)

If it makes you happy
It can't be that bad
If it makes you happy
Then why the hell are you so sad

haha great line.. That's perfect. I can hear her singing in my head now.

I thought you would like crows??

I think it should be just as ok as my change. What'ya think?

a reply to: Krakatoa

I really LOVE that one.

To be honest - I wish I could display the 'Swastika" everywhere, because it's a meaningful and beautiful symbol... But then again, I think we know how that would go... (same concept) lol

This bird is so smart, he managed to summarize the entire thread in two words.

Attention grab much?

But its anonymous attention, so does it really count?

I see a Mod on here has one, can't be that big a deal. It's just an avatar.

What if it's an Asian or even (theoretically) Atlantean Swastika?

I'm sure it rotates in the opposite direction too.



I'm not advocating we all emblazon our avatars with Schutzstaffel insignias...

But how about the original?

Wasn't worth another thread to ask.

Yeah, i don't know. Im certainly not the best person to represent ATS in such a manner. But there is this:

We don't like Hitler at ATS, not even a little bit

Speaking as just a regular Joe off the street (that has a fair understanding of the esoteric arts), the one thing to keep in mind beyond the direction of hte spiral: soft and hard. Or feminine and masculine. The nazi swastika is a hard angled, masculine, dominating/destructive emblem. The swastika you refer to in the more formerly traditional (sanskrit) is softer angled, feminine, creative/nurturing.

Im not sure the average person would even stop to notice the feminine variety, as the soft S curves are not as bold, and not as mentally stereotyped. But socially speaking...that is a part of the map labeled "Here there be dragons". So I just stay away.

As a philosophical discussion...its been done to death. I tend more toward the above, myself. And recognize that Hitler is one of the few personalities in history that can singlehandedly ruin what was formerly considered good.

You get out of here, you change your avatar every other freaking day.

Yeah so true...
I can't even look at Charlie Chaplin without expecting him to goose step a baying mob into a rage filled metaphorical orgy of back patting.

Some things are best left alone I guess.


Thanks Texan.

That is absolutely not true...

I at least give it 3 days before shapeshifting.
