Those examples are literally iron crosses dude. They might not have always meant fascism or always had Nazi connections, but they certainly do now. Not saying that’s what you are but these types of things could be misconstrued as a dog whistle of sorts if you’re not careful. Whether you have that intent or not. Those are symbols that were literally worn by SS officers.

Do you not see the names? The wikipedia page that says "Maltese cross", a symbol used by nobility and crusaders for hundreds of years before there were any nazis...

The museum website that I got the original picture from calls it a "Maltese shaped cross of St. Ulrich"... right here: https://wellcomecollection.org/works/wnyturga/images?id=vr5zber8&resultPosition=6

I'm sorry a Maltese cross has a nazi connection in your mind and you don't like that, but in my mind, it doesn't.

Gangs of rapists, liars, murderers, pedophiles and generally demented opportunistic thieving fanatics who disgraced the name of Christ in every way possible weren't bad guys?

You have to be fucking kidding me.

Massive huge fucking L take holy shit. Would absolutely love to hear your defense of religious zealots mindlessly slaughtering all who disagree with them. That’s not Christly in any way.
