Vedo questo tipo di simbolo spruzzato su tutte le pareti di Cipro e lo conosco come una croce celtica, ma non può essere giusto perché non ha nulla a che fare con la cultura cipriota. È sempre sorayed Aling Side the Greek Swastika o una normale svastica? Si suppone che sia un simbolo cristiano?

Simple. Because we have neonazis
Pretty sure it’s called a Celtic Cross, nowadays used as an aryan symbol
It’s a common nazi symbol now, white racist’s mainly. But in Cyprus it can be interpreted as “f*ck immigrants” or whatever
Nah just racists being idiots globally.
You’d think Cypriot racists would use Greek symbols instead of the *celtic* cross but they are not smart people.
Its called the Celtic cross and it’s used by a lot of Far-Right individuals, its essentially an anti-immigration and pro-white symbol. There are a lot in Cyprus because cyprus has a lot of supporters of the far right,
It’s a symbol that football fanatics/ultras often use. Unfortunately in this country football has political ties to it. Clubs like APOEL and Anorthosis have ultras who are far right (the symbol you attached is often accompanied by AU79 which stands for Apoel Ultras and 79 because they were founded in 1979). Clubs like Omonoia, Nea Salamina or any other (with few exceptions like ALS Omonoia) team that was founded in 1948 is considered a left leaning club with its ultras being Far-Left. If you want to learn more about this I’m pretty sure that a [user on this sub made surprisingly good and unbiased thread about this whole thing.](https://www.reddit.com/r/cyprus/s/C7UhkGh2Nb)
