when there are alternatives that honor ancestors but don't represent hate, there is no other hand with this. why not a positive slope instead? -- (edited)

first get rid of the symbol (and the sheer and utter inexcusable appallingness of the places in which it became a thing in the 60s, instead of it being a holdover from the 19th century), then work to make actions better.
(edited to correct spelling - my brain doesn't even want to type "hate" correctly, it's such a no-no for me.)
