A thread 🧵
The @BBC are so obsessed with pandering to Reform UK that they are refusing to show @EdwardJDavey calling out Nigel Farage's divisive and destructive politics.
Watch it here instead:
The infamous Hitler salute was one of the key visual symbols of Nazism.
This salute, ingrained in history as a representation of oppression, dehumanization, violence, and unimaginable suffering and murder, is far more than a physical gesture; it’s a reminder of a dark era of humanity, defined by antisemitism and other ideologies of hatred.
It is an emblem of the Holocaust and other horrifying crimes perpetrated by Nazi Germany, along with such symbols as a swastika, a Totenkopf (death's head) or runes that shape the name of the SS.
Sensitivity to these historical contexts is essential, as such gestures and symbols, even used unintended, resonate and evoke distress, particularly for those who bear the scars of that tragic history.
