    Wait, is the Silver Legion emoji/bit account not about the pre-WW2 era Silver Legion christian fascist militia? The one whose members heavily joined the (fascist occultist/christian-theosophical) I AM Activity?

    EDIT: I really thought we were making fun of 100 year old American Christian New Age Nazis.

        I remember the bit account but IIRC they were more GOP/far right lib than brunch lib? Which is why I was always so sure they were referencing the Silver Shirts.

            The bit account, which is why I didn't think it had to do with 538, and I just kinda assumed that the emoji was a joke about the bit account as I don't know what the guy's face looks like.

        Honestly might have been me, I went down a rabbit hole and was 100% obsessed with these people like a year ago and ranted about extensively in at least one Hexbear thread. It's crazy how much they've influenced modern new age thought.
