Comment on GOG apologizes for emailing people Nazi symbols
SatyrSack@quokk.au 3 days ago To me, it is the fact that they used that S-like symbol twice in a row. I don’t care what that symbol actually means on its own. But having two of the character together is clearly an intentional subtle wink from someone.

I’m not convinced it is, just because the other symbols are so random. Like, if it was a human, you’d think they’d at least use other runes, or would use something more standard like, ☉ or ☼, or would at least put in some effort to disguise it. I mean, if they actually wanted to make it subtle, they may even have actually used the sowilō symbol, given that that is what the SS runes originate from. Instead, its Koppa, undisguised, front and centre. An AI on the other hand, would just output random symbols with common patterns, such as this.
Then again, Nazis aren’t exactly known for being smart, so…
