    I suppose that depends where you are from. In the US almost no average person could tell you what the totenkoph is. Let alone ID it. Everyone could ID a swastika. Though not tell the difference between Sanskrit or Nazi.

    I had to look it up to remind myself even. I’m most familiar with it as a piece of iconography the neo folk group Death In June has used several times.

      I mean I could not have told you that it was a white nationalist symbol. It just looked like a cartoon skull to me.
