    Was bedeutet dieses Symbol?


    Kontext: Ich lebe in einer 3 -Person -WG und wir suchen derzeit nach einem neuen Mitbewohner. Ein älterer Mann bewarb sich für das Zimmer und ich arrangierte ein Treffen mit ihm für nächste Woche. Als er mir auf WhatsApp eine SMS schrieb, sah ich, dass sein Profilbild das obige ist.
    Da der Regenbogen normalerweise ein Symbol ist, das Stolz und LGBTQ darstellt, bin ich ein bisschen verwirrt darüber, was ich darüber nachdenken soll. Ich erinnere mich, dass während des Stolzmonats eine "Gegenbewegung" die sich selbst nannte "Stolzmonat"meistens von AFD und anderen Anhängern des rechten Flügels gefördert. Könnte es etwas damit zu tun haben? Wie würden Sie darüber nachdenken?

    Ich werde ihn trotzdem darüber befragen, aber ich hatte das Gefühl, dass andere Meinungen nicht weh tun, zumal, wenn es bedeutet, was ich denke, würde ich es wirklich gerne vermeiden, ihm den Raum zu geben.

    Dank im Voraus.

      could be from the bavarian AFD ( ultraright wing). They have a slogan „schwarz rot gold ist bunt genug“ with the flag just as you have it there. So rightwing reactionary bullshit. Could be wrong though

      It looks sus whether it’s supposed to be an anti-rainbow or just a random german flag as a profile picture. Red flag, avoid.

      I’d say, your associations are feasible. Since there is no official “Stolzmonat” symbol, I’d ask him what it means. It could be that he’d just denies (“I just like my country”) though I don’t know any German having a flag in their profile.

      Maybe ask him Question like it’s tradition in your flat, that you visit several CSD parades, if he would join you.

      Or in case of question ignore that application

      Don’t choose him as your new roommate, he’s gonna be a pain in the ass.

      Edit: my sisters now ex-husband had a similar looking picture in his WA status with a bunch of other lgbtqia-phobic crap.

      Ask him, nobody here seems to know the answer

      Even if he gives a funny answer or avoids it, its an answer. It is sus, but it might be something harmless.

      Right wing or hard core afd would never use german flag to promote their shitty „values“. They hate German flag with this colours as much as nazis did because it represents start of revolution in Germany in 19. century, culminating with Weimar republic. (right wing uses black white and red)

      Ask the guy. Only they know what they use it for. If he dodges an answer that’d be very sketchy.

      Impossible to tell. You have to ask him.

      Objectively it could be anything. A cutout of a logo of the auswärtiges Amt. Or some right wing shit. Or just a flag.

      I would suggest you ask them whats up with their profile pic.

      If they say they are part of an organisation that uses this kind of branding, than I would not mark it against them. (…depending on wich organisation they are in. Naturally.) But if they have no answer or become defensive, that would be a red flag for me.

      There are various organisations that use similar, though not exactly the same, logos. Both commercial and polittical on both sides of the spectrum. It also could be a sports thing.

      It is generally not normal to display the german flag without context though. And people who do, tend to belong to the more right leaning spectrum of the population.

      would you like to be prejudged for having a normal rainbow flag in your profile picture?

    16. Acceptable-Mark8108 on

      Replacing the rainbow with the German flag is basically part of everyday right wing brain wash.
