My question for you, especially the German's of this board, when you see my name, do you honestly think of Heil Hitler?
Does it make me look like a Neo-Nazi?

Only to someone who's in the know, and is familiar with the symbolism used by neo nazi and other hate groups.

Short answer, yes.
As i've hinted at before in the past, i work for an internet security corp. Part of my job is finding websites that fit in certain categories or criteria. That includes "Hate sites". So, in order to find these sites, i had to learn their lingo so to speak. Most hate and discrimination pages, don't openly advertise, nor do the people who frequent them.
Like any other exclusive group, they use lingo, code, or symbols that only their fellow's would recognize. Some are quite obvious, like 88. Some kinda obvious like runic symbols, others are composite numbers, like 1488. Which is code for the 14 words of david lane and HH. Another is RAHOWA, which is "racial holy war". Some places make obvious refrences to the turner diaries.
Stormfront, even people who havent delved into this very far have heard of. Another group is known as "Combat 18". There's also several groups that go under "Blood and honor" , which coincidenly is the english translation to the inscription found on hitler youth knives. Other sites mix racial bigotry with reliegion. See church of the world creator. (aka "creativity movement")
One "tactic" hate groups use is spread their "message" (aside from religion) is music, and you'll often find links to their favorite bands. Some hate groups are more covert, or sly in their intent. Look around enough and you'll find nordic "heritage" sites. Innocent looking on the surface, but dig deeper into it, and you'll find the veiled "hate" within.
Let me tell ya, i have read far more into this then any one person should have to. Hate and neo nazi sites are hard to find because you have to acutally read their crap to see what their message. Makes my head hurt after awhile.
