kallend 2,027 #402 July 6, 2020 A globe is a sphere. A circle with a design in it is not a sphere. An anchor is not a null element. A ribbon with a motto on it, in an eagle's beak is not a null element. The Trump logo has more graphic elements in common with the Nazi logo than either of them have in common with the USMC seal.

My case for the tail is even stronger than for the wings. Shall we put it to a scientific test? Then we'll see who the weasel really is Oh and I put 'science' in my username because you know, I think I'm pretty good at it. Not as good as kallend who is very distinguished, but I'm better at trolling the trolls Edited July 6, 2020 by olofscience Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it doesn't have to be obvious since it's practically just shitty clip art. If I said "tail feathers" instead of just "tail" then you really wouldn't have an argument, would you? That's how flimsy your argument is. And "it doesn't have to be obvious" is a requirement you waived arbitrarily. Adding "feathers" to my original point doesn't substantially change my point, so I think I can safely add that to close the tiny loophole you slithered through.

No, I simply posted a link and then you went on a tirade about two idiotic arguments that you haven't been able to defend in the least. Several objective posters have already called you out on it, yet here you are still trolling and weaseling around your biased and inept observations. 11 minutes ago, olofscience said: 56 minutes ago, Coreece said: Then what do you think that is between it's legs?

No, they are standard heraldic elements as appropriate to seals, logos and trademarks. A globe is a globe and a circle with something inside it is an annulet - NOT the same thing. A ribbon or scroll with a motto in it ("Semper Fidelis") is a standard heraldic element, as is an anchor with a rope, so their absence is also meaningful. The USMC seal has both, Trump logo and Nazi symbol have neither. Educate yourself and stop looking foolish. PS your weasel is not a standard heraldic charge and being one is nothing for you to be proud of. Edited July 6, 2020 by kallend 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not the one weaseling around, it's an easy question to answer. That bit between the legs of the Nazi eagle could be the "vent" rather than the tail: Yes, there could be some ambiguity on what it could be, but that's the only place your argument could hide. In a dark corner of ambiguity. However, the USMC eagle clearly, unmistakably shows the eagle's tail. My arguments don't have to hide in grey areas like yours.

NO. There is no similarity whatsoever between the presence of a graphic or heraldic element and the absence of that element.

Your argument wouldn't stand against the simplest test. You had to squeeze through a loophole the size of a small filled area between the Nazi eagle's legs. You know what does that? Nazi weasels. You were the one that kept complaining about how nobody was addressing you question about the tail, and then when I finally honored your request you just admit that you've been trolling and then imply that I'm a nazi weasel?

Edit - Yes. here are a million ways to design this experiment, but hey let's start with these: Oh wait...one of the google results completely omits the tail! Could it be that it was a very insignificant part of the other logo? Or they just filled it in with white so no weasels could weasel through?
