Right wing influencers are convinced the Instagram Threads logo is the mark of the devil

JerkyIsSuperior 29 points 3 years ago

They will shit their pants once they find out about the metaverse logo. Personally, the Threads logo reminds me of a coiled tapeworm, which is very appropriate.

As a Satanist, I'd like to, on behalf of the rest of us, say that we (and Satan) do NOT endorse Threads and Meta AT ALL. I will not stand for the absolute slander. Satan is far and beyond the Zuck morally.

The government just committed to giving everyone access to high speed internet, but knowing what we know now about the far right maybe we should be taking access away...

Mate it’s leaking all around the world. My maw, a 63 year old Scottish woman on the west coast fell into that right wing pipeline and started sending me fucking videos of Ben Shapiro! Wasn’t long before I cut my “family” out of my life . I’ve three kids who are LGBTQ+ and I’ll be fuckin’ damned if I’m gonna let these troglodytes get any influence over my kids. Paradox of tolerance has never been more relevant than it is now. Fuck the lot of them.

Suddenly making broadband internet available to everyone is a priority when it's easier than ever to turn someone into a queerphobic automaton on the internet.

It’s sad that the same people who want their god to reign supreme over everyone and everything always seem to make him so weak that even an icon is dangerous. It must be utterly exhausting to be so threatened all the time.

I agree, but only because Zuckerberg is clearly a demon wearing human skin.

Right-wing influencers are trying desperately to keep their christian userbase using Lord Musk's Twitter, and away from Zucks shit. It's all dumb.

The Devil needs a better graphic designer. Saul Bass that shit! Don't make it so obvious that the their/they're/there/can't figure out apostrophes people can see it.

You give them any freaking shape and they try to find symbolism in it. Next I'm gonna hear that they think apples are satanic or something...

Well of course they are. That's just easy clicks/shares for them and their people eat it right up.

These kinds of people are scared of what they admit would be the most impotent of groups! Oh no, Satan’s goal is just to hide symbols everywhere?

I don’t believe the logo is a symbol of anything, but I am curious about what the designers were going for when they made it. It’s a piece of thread that forms an “@“ symbol, I’m guessing? It doesn’t seem like great branding , but I’m no expert.

My first thought was a fingerprint and an @

Too bad instagram is blocked in China. 666 is a lucky number over there.

Clearly it's actually 99 which is a reference to Brooklyn nine nine the TV show!
