What about the Æ or Å? Have any socially advanced thinkers identified other characters from languages of nations historically oppressed by Nazis as special symbols of Nazism?
well yes, the twitter link is about the Ø.

So I just wanted to know how susceptible the other letters were to being indicators of nazism.

Oh, I misunderstood exactly.

I'm a Norwegian in Germany, I even live in the Hauptstadt der Bewegung. The nazi assholes here do (try to) appropriate Norwegian names and the flag, but not Æ or Å, and I've never noticed other non-German letters. Until I hadn't thought about the Æ/Ø/Å discrepancy. Maybe it's because Ø isn't used elsewhere. There almost is an encyclopædia but Ø is of pure blood, if you'll pardon the spelling.
