TikTok user has idea for a 'Gen Z tattoo,' then teens find out it looks like a Nazi symbol
September 27, 2020
Jordan Williams, 18, recently posted a video on TikTok encouraging fellow Gen Zers to get matching tattoos as a sign of rebellion.
She stumbled across the symbol, a letter Z with a line through the center, in the comment section of another user's video. She thought the image seemed simple enough and universal enough to be a good fit, so she issued a call to action to her 2,000 followers.
"OK Gen Z listen up!" Williams captioned a video of herself staring into the camera wearing a black hoodie. "What if, now hear me out...We all got a matching tattoo. As not only a symbol of unity in our generation but also as a sign of rebellion."
......
The symbol, one person said, looked similar a Nazi swastika. Williams' original video was memed dozens, maybe hundreds of times over. She received death threats and even a threatening phone call from people she didn't know.

"Z" is the symbol of Russians that support the war. You see it on their tanks, trucks, cloths. Putin's Intelegence people are not what they used to be. The old cold war guys would have never made this mistake.
