Charlie Kirk displayed a symbol that was suggestive of Nazism at his final rally. Kirk organized a national youth organization, Turning Point. I have not listened to Kirk much, but I do NOT think he espoused Nazi or racist ideas.
The image below is from the day he was killed. Charlie Kirk certainly did not deserve to die. I am very sorry that he was killed. It was horrible.
I am only posting what I see and how it can be interpreted. That does not mean that Charlie Kirk even realized that such an association might be made with that symbol. Most probably, however, Antifa would see that as a symbol of Nazism. That is the point.

He was using a symbol in his signage that is not exactly a Sieg rune in the standard style for a Nazi youth organization, but it suggests a Sieg rune. Kirk was a youth organizer.
A double Sieg rune was the symbol of the Nazi Schutzstaffel (SS). A single Sieg rune was the symbol of the Deutsches Jungvolk (German young people). The DJ was a younger organization than what we call the “Hitler Youth” (Hitlerjungend). Even if he did not make this association with Nazism, Antifa will take it as a hidden message.
Below is a badge of the “Deutsches Jungvolk”.

I am not trying to justify his shooting, I would agree with him on many things, but why was that symbol being displayed? It is a “dog whistle” to those who do have Nazi sympathies. It is also a “dog whistle” for Antifa. They often brand people as “Nazis” simply for having conservative beliefs. Use of such a symbol will reinforce their paranoid belief that Kirk was a secret Nazi-sympathizer.

It is not clear how long he has been using that symbol, but it seems unlikely that it was the first time he had displayed banners with that symbol. The same symbol was on the canopy that he was sitting under.
