Like, look, if someone has an “88” tattoo, book ‘em. Seriously. We know who does that. But if a wide receiver has 88 on their jersey? We can’t let Nazis have blanket custody of integers.

There are huge struggles in pagan circles between Nazis & anti-Nazis over “custody” of the Norse pantheon. There are also a bunch of movies with Thor in them.

Did *someone* at Marvel Studios know about neo-Nazi appropriation of Heathenry by modern-day Nazis? You have to believe someone did. By the same logic applied to NASA’s use of “Ultima Thule," that would’ve placed a Thor movie off-limits.

Look, the last attack on space scientists was the guy who showed up to his big press conference wearing the cheesecake tie. *That was completely justified*. It’s worth looking at the differences therefore.

There is a huge, ongoing problem of misogyny, structural and otherwise, driving women from STEM. The tie played directly into that. What’s more, there was no ancient, benign philosophical tradition the tie could be seen as serving.

NASA *had* a surfeit of real ex-Nazis early on, by US government policy, but they are retired or dead. Meanwhile, the concept of “Ultima Thule” goes back to Virgil. Neo-Nazi “infiltration” of NASA probably tracks STEM overall – unlike e.g. the US military (massive problem).

Nazis *can* poison things beyond use (Swastika anyone)? They do this by a prominent, continuous nigh-exclusive use of a thing in a context. They don’t get to just own other people’s stuff merely by touching it with their filthy Nazi hands.
