I've learned recently that the skinhead movement used to be antiracist and leftist af. Until nazis infiltrated the skinhead punk scene.

Nazis have a rich history of stealing symbols and coopting movements. They're like hateful little magpies who steal any shiny bits of culture they find and take them back to their nests to shit all over them.

For an example see the symbol of peace that was the swastika more than 100 years ago

They reversed the direction. The original symbol is still used in Asia
