Roman Zentsov Aryan Tattoo

I had respect for this guy until I saw his tattoo... not cool, this is 2006

Is Fedor a racist too?

How do you know thats a racist tattoo. A swastika was used long before Hitler and thats not even a swastika its a design that has 90 degree bends in it. That doesn't make it a swastika.

My 12 year old brother was watching today and he yelled at me from the other room and told me to come and look and asked me if it was a Nazi sign on his arm. I told him I wasn't sure but that it looked like a bunch of swastikas clustered together and connected. Anyone know the significance of this?

Man that doesn't mean anything to me. Don't jump to conclusions.

exactly. nazis stole tons of symbols and phrases from other cultures for propaghanda reasons. including the swastika. someone mentioned on here that it probally represents anti-communism.

The swastika is an ancient symbol in many cultures including pagan northern Europe so you should not assume that it means Roman is somehow connected to Nazism..... also I don't recall the Nazi symolization of the swastika as being the same as the pattern of his tattoo with the five connected swastikas.
