As such, the phrase can be read as: "It's like another Holocaust!" |

| "It's Okay To Be White" | A phrase originating on 4chan in 2017, it was created with the purpose of putting it on fliers to be put in public places. Originators assumed that “liberals” would react negatively to such fliers and condemn them or take them down, thus “proving” that liberals did not even think it was “okay" to be white. |
| "Love Your Race" | A phrase used by white supremacists to encourage racialism. |
| "Meine Ehre Heisst Treue" | A German phrase translating to "My Honor is Loyalty". It was originally a motto used by the Waffen SS. |
