>>19045182
I´m from Austria, here we drew it in school calling it the "Skater S" cause we were cool skateboard kids, yo.
I have talked to different people from my town and the region in general when bringing up different nostalgic things we liked to remember.
Everybody told me it was something for them and their peers to identify.
Kind of like the New Balance shoes nowadays are claimed to be Hip Hop, Skateboarding, Hooligan, etc. etc. exclusive shoes.

36 years between these 3 influential presidencies..

The S seems to be based on geometry that includes hexagons

6 x 6 = 36

Other than that I dont see the connection.

Roosevelt, Carter, and Trump.

What do they all have in common?

>>
>>19046872
I disagree. I think it is a symbol that was somehow planted (like a seed) into the collective consciousness that pervades all living things on the planet, namely human minds.

The symbol has a purpose, and the idea Im getting from the anon posting the geometric figures is that something major is due to happen during Trumps presidency.

There is a connection between Roosevelt, Carter, and Trump

I hate to say it.. but perhaps a war?

This is all just speculation of course, but my spidey sense is tingling about this

Third response, all these replies to this stuff is me btw.

Heres what im getting now:

You are implying that the S is meant to cause instability in the collective consciousness, but the instability will bring us (eventually) to a heightened level of awareness.

Things have to get worse before they get better kinda thing

I imagine a waveform that is our collective consciousness, and that waveform is being acted upon by an outside force. In order to return the waveform to equillibrium the force needs to be removed. But if we stick it out and let the decoherence go to its maximal point.. we will "level up" and reach equillibrium in line with this outside force.

Is this close at all?

Dude i know.

He literally told me he had sold his soul to the devil a long time ago.

He showed me how to transfer a subjective experience into the mind of another (by demonstrating it on me)

At one point during the trip I had almost fazed out or something idk what happened exactly but i suddenly had to stand up. Him and his wife (who was also tripping) seemed disappointed/deflated that i had rejected whatever was about to happen.

He said something about me "not being ready" and told me to calm down and that i was okay.

I think they were trying to show me how to be successful (which apparently involves giving up morality)

Several times that night i remember disagreeing with him about things cuz "muh morals" that he didnt seem to have any of.

He showed me how life is sorta pointless unless you give it your own meaning. If you dont, youll lose your mind.

Theres alot of other weird shit that happened that night ill add more if anyones interested

A study was done on the origins of the s. People like artists and designers of similar logos were asked if the symbol a) bore resemblance to OPs pic related and b) what else it could be since a never happened.

Almost every artist was familiar with the S. No one could recall an origin, but almost all of them said the same thing, "I remember it was a symbol we all used to draw in elementary and middle school." The professional artists claimed that this seems to be a natural phenomenon. The symbol is easy enough to draw, its composed of straight lines. Its entirely possible that children simply figure out how to draw it on their own when doodling. Much like a unicursal star.

I used to love to draw this, and I vividly remember when I learned it. A classmate in elementary school who also happened to be a distant cousin (all though we weren't close, almost never spoke) wanted to teach a bunch of us how to draw a "Japanese S". He said that his dad, who had recently been deployed in Japan, taught him. And so began my S drawing.

Could've added the dad part to be over the top like some kids do. But if not, definitely an unusual story.

Words do not express thoughts very well. they always become a little different immediately they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom to one man seems nonsense to another.

Words cannot convey an experience. "Happiness" itself is merely a word; it describes an experience that the word itself cannot convey. Words, like time, are an illusion created by people wishing to teach and educate others, but they lose the meaning of experience itself, of emotions and feelings, such as depression or love.

The symbol is how the eyes read , a physical manifestation from the darkness of subconscious mind manifesting it self and bringing it to the light of the conscious mind.

Just because more is possible than commonly accepted doesn't mean that "anything is possible." A proper occultist or paranormal investigator or mystic or whatever the fuck you consider yourself should - and must - be a skeptic first and foremost. Anything else and you're just naive and gullible and lose the ability to discern Truth from fiction. As evidenced by the content of this entire board.

I had always just assumed that it was for the brand "starter" or some sports team. I think I've seen it embroidered on a hat or something. I never really drew the symbol, I had a friend or two that did around 9th grade or so but I never thought anything of it and have no idea how they came to know it.

I just had a bit of a memory fart, I remember something about "west coast choppers" and the symbol for that being somewhat related and having been shown on television at some point.
