The origin of anti-war signs
V-shaped peace gesture
The symbol of anti-nuclear war, that is, the symbol of peace, is one of the symbols widely used in the world today.
This logo was designed by Gerald Holtom, a participant in the "Nuclear Disarmament Movement (CDN)" * * * Russel, as the badge of the action committee protesting the establishment of the "Atomic Weapons Development Research Center" in the English village of 1958. The original idea of the logo was put forward by the designers and graduates of the Royal College of Art in London and expressed by a circle with a Christian cross, but it was opposed by Christians.
This symbol is a symbol of death in Teutonic language in ancient northern Europe. It was used as a "symbol of peace" in 1960, and it has been used ever since. Gerald Holttum is a supporter of the 1950 peace movement. He may have been commissioned by the communist Bertrand Russell to design a logo to unite the leftists in the 1958 peace movement. Obviously, both Holden and Russell think this Teutonic Cross (also known as Nero Cross) is an appropriate symbol of their careers.
However, since two thousand years ago, this symbol has been designed to hate Christians. Nero was a tyrant who despised Christians. He crucified St Peter and turned the cross upside down. The shape of Teutonic Cross symbolized this appalling atrocity and became a very popular badge among pagans at that time. Since then, this symbol has been called "Nero's Cross". The origin of this symbol in history proves that it is the visualization of the mysterious feature of "Aum (fork y)", which is a sacred word in Hinduism. The hymn "Om" is believed to help awaken the "evil forces of Brahma" in the human spine. The mystic Albert Parker also thinks this sign is very mysterious in his book about faith and moral freemasonry.
This symbol (also known as "Broken Cross", "Wrinkle in the Corner of the Eye", "Witch's Foot", "Nero's Cross", "Broken Judaism" and "Antichrist Symbol") is actually a broken weapon. It also means "gesture of despair" and "death of mankind". The Germanic tribes who used this symbol endowed it with strange and mysterious attributes. It is said that the heretic "dark wizard" used such a word in spells and curses. ...
So far, this inverted cross is the same as the socialist "symbol of peace"
In Germany, it is considered as a "death script". It was not only stipulated by Hitler's national society, party member, that it must appear in German obituaries, but also must be engraved on the tombstones of Nazi officers in SS units. This symbol caters to the Nazi emphasis on paganism. When the two arms of this symbol stand vertically, it is "the life badge of Pythagoras, which constitutes a fork in the road leading to good and evil". It means fertility and high yield at the same time, but when the arms point down, it means evil and death.
Anton Ravi, the founder of Satan Church, used this symbol as the curtain of the altar. A witch once commented on this symbol: it is an ancient and powerful anti-Christ symbol. In the dark ages, it was used in druid magic and the joining ceremony of new members of various Satan worshippers. They drew a magic circle and gave the new member a cross. The new member raised the cross and turned it upside down. Then he broke off relations with Christianity in three dimensions (past, present and future) all the time, and broke down the horizontal dimension to form a "crow's feet" shape. This ugly symbol is a blasphemy against the holy spirit. Those who wear and display this sign boycotted Christ without knowing it or knowing it.
Gerald Horton, a commercial artist, is a member of this organization. During World War II, he became a staunch anti-war activist. Entrusted by the organization, he took the signal in the navy flag as the design element and designed a peaceful anti-war symbol that later became popular all over the world. In the naval semaphore, the signalman holds two flags, which are at a 45-degree angle downward, indicating "N". One side of the two flags is facing up and the other side is facing down, which means "D". "N" and "D" are abbreviations of the English word "nuclear disarmament". Holden combined them into a simple line and drew a circle outside. There are other ways to explain this sign. Holden said: "I painted myself: a representative of a desperate man, hands down, palms forward, just like Goya did in the painting." The insurgents were shot on the night of May 3, 1808. "The lines in the circle suggest the human body, while the circle symbolizes the earth.
In the later days, Holden also regretted that he had brought too much despair to this constellation. He said that if he was given another chance, he would like to turn the signboard upside down. "He thinks that peace is something to celebrate. Ken Colsbeen, a journalist who interviewed holden and studied the history of anti-war signs for many years, said, "Coincidentally, if the signs he designed were turned upside down, the signalman on the signs would hold the flags with 45-degree angles on both sides, and indicate' U' in the semaphore. UD is the abbreviation of (unilateral disarmament), which may have far-reaching significance than nuclear disarmament. "
After being used by Martin Luther King's friends in the civil rights movement, the symbol of peace is widely used in the United States, especially in various rights movements and American organizations that believe in the Orthodox Church. In the 1970s, some people thought this symbol contained some evil metaphors, while others thought it was a symbol of communism, so people began to avoid using it. Under the apartheid system in South Africa, the official even banned the use of this sign. During the Vietnam War, people who opposed the war used this symbol, so this symbol is also called "the footprints of the great American chicken".
Not intentionally infringing, this symbol is still used as a symbol of nuclear disarmament in Britain. But around the world, people regard it as a symbol of peace and non-violence. People can use this sign for free without anyone's permission. This also leads to its use and abuse, although it will not be happy to be seen by CND or other peace organizations. This logo is also used for business, advertising and fashion. "We can't stop these uses, and we don't intend to apply for a patent. All we can do is hope that those enterprises can donate some money. Any funds donated by them will be used for peace education and information work of CDN. " A spokesman for the nuclear disarmament website said.
