"I have no idea what that "Sith" symbol signifies. My support is simply for Palpatine over the Jedi council coup. PERIOD. "
Also at the top-right is the banderite flag with a slavic swastica

I think it would be more controversial if he called out Ukrainian Nazis than if he supported them. People (mostly athletes and e-sports "athletes") have been cancelled for not supporting Ukraine enough, I can't think of anybody who has been cancelled for supporting Ukrainian Nazis.

He doesn't really have to call anyone out though. In fact, it would be weird for him to know what the flag means because Ukrainian nazis are so incredibly rare. Fact is, most of the guys in that picture probably don't know what it means or agree with it.
Lol, they're very rare but they're just so telegenic that cameras and celebrities are just naturally drawn to them.
I think he does have to actually say something, he's not some internet rando he's an actual celebrity. People remember him and the thing's he's said so he can't continue to be ambiguous forever.
Most of those swastikas were actually engraved on the camera lenses by Russian trolls though.
And sure, now he probably has to say something, but he could have brushed this whole thing aside from the beginning with no effort and he just didn't.
:doubt:
Pretty sure that's the bit
I have to push back more here. Engraved on the camera lenses? What?
Turn on your bit detector. He's speaking in NYT-voice.
That would just make the shot really really blurry
Right? Like....what is meant by that? I wanna know.
Probably a fundamental misunderstanding of how cameras work
:jesse-wtf:
Man I wish I could be confident this is a bit
Well, this particular time you can be confident. I said it, as a bit, and the real reason for all those swastikas in the pictures is that the people wearing them/having them as tattoos/standing in front of flags with them is that those people are in fact nazis.
:fry:
