Anarcho-nihilists and insurrectionary anarchists are the ones typically using the symbol, and they don’t usually care if its the Moorcock one or the Games Workshop one. Won’t deny, yeah this one’s the Games Workshop version. But I also think its basically arguing semantics whether they’re using the Moorcock one, an anarcho-nihilist one, or a GW one. Whether its the GW one or not is sorta irrelevant (I was just trying to provide some history and context, won’t deny I missed the circle which does make it the GW version), as its clearly being used in an anarchist context. All I was saying was Moorcock is credited with the original, and Games Workshop were directly inspired by Moorcock and also used it. However I do not feel its fair to equate op or anyone that uses the symbol to fascists. Yes some use the chaos star but it is a very specific and niche version of it.
I also don’t think its a good idea to just give up the symbol because a couple irrelevant basement dwelling fascists try to use a niche version of the chaos star. I’m tired of leftists just letting fascists take symbols away without a fight. I don’t see Marxists dropping the hammer and sickle cause NazBols use it.
Lastly, anarchists are certainly beefing with tankies. And they are going to use their symbols to do it. Chaos star included because it is an anarchist symbol whether you agree with its use or not. I have it on my punk jacket, I am a very clear anarchist, and I very much have beef with tankies because I see them as fascists with a red coat of paint.
