Don’t turn swastikas into windows

toospoopyformyshirt

problems with turning swastika graffiti into windows:

you know and I know and nazis know that it used to be a swastika
the police probably don’t know or care that it used to be a swastika so they’re not gonna do anything about it
it leaves the graffiti undocumented
it leaves the graffiti unreported
it doesn’t get the graffiti cleaned up
affected groups still have to see it and know that a swastika was there

instead:

take a picture of it
report it
make sure it’s documented
make sure it gets cleaned up

I’d much rather see no swastika graffiti than see a window and think “the police won’t care about this because some ‘ally’ thought they were helping”

Yes, thank you!! This is extremely unhelpful. Speaking as a Jew, it is far better for allies of local minority communities to TAKE A PICTURE of the graffiti and document it, then ASSIST US IN REPORTING it to the police. Covering up the swastika with other imagery means that POLICE CANNOT PROSECUTE the incident as a hate crime and it becomes very unlikely that the vandal(s) will be caught. It may make you feel ~warm and fluffy~, but our communities know exactly what’s under that Windows logo and it does not make us less angry or afraid. Moreover, it makes clean-up /so much harder/ and only further vandalizes the structure (which, let’s be honest, is usually a Jewish house of worship, organization, or a Jewish-owned business). PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS. PLEASE.

I googled what this was… the first result:

Vandals destroy shop windows and graffiti anti-Semitic slurs in Philadelphia on 78th anniversary of Kristallnacht

I’m so sorry to bring this to attention, though it’s important

Please don’t feel bad for bringing it to attention, Jewish Tumblr has been talking about it and trying to get people to pay attention. Outside of Jewish bloggers this stuff usually gets ignored

Kilroy was here is an American popular culture expression that became popular during World War II; it is typically seen in graffiti. Its origins are debated, but the phrase and the distinctive accompanying doodle — a bald-headed man (sometimes depicted as having a few hairs) with a prominent nose peeking over a wall with the fingers of each hand clutching the wall — became associated with GIs in the 1940s.

I love how humans have literally not changed throughout history like the graffiti from Pompeii has people from hundreds of years ago writing stuff like “Marcus is gay” “I fucked a girl here” “Julius your mum wishes she was with me” and leonardo da vinci’s assistants drew dicks in their notebooks just for the banter and mozart created a piece called “kiss my ass” so when people wish for ‘today’s generation’ to be like ‘how people used to’ then we’re already there buddy we’ve always been

The Hagia Sophia has inscriptions that were considered sacred for centuries until they were deciphered in the 70s to be Nordic runes saying “Halfdan wrote this”

my old english prof told us that theres a cave in Scandinavia where a viking gratified some runes like 14 feet up on the wall and when they finally reached it all it translated into was “this is very high”
