WASHINGTON - Hyatt Hotels Corp called symbols of hate “abhorrent” on Sunday after the design of a stage at the Conservative Political Action Conference at one of its hotels drew comparisons to a Norse rune used by Nazis during World War Two.
A photo of the CPAC stage went viral on social media on Saturday, with thousands of Twitter users sharing posts comparing its distinctive design to an othala rune, one of many ancient European symbols that Nazis adopted to “reconstruct a mythic ‘Aryan’ past,” according to the Anti-Defamation League.
The ceiling of the conference room featured a lighting display in the same shape as the stage, according to Reuters photographs.
Hyatt said all aspects of conference logistics, including the stage design, were managed by the American Conservative Union, which organized the conference.
The comparisons were “outrageous and slanderous,” Matt Schlapp, American Conservative Union chair, said in a Twitter post on Saturday. He added the organization had a “long standing commitment to the Jewish community” and that the conference featured several Jewish speakers.

Perhaps those contractors DELIBERATELY SET UP THE CONSERVATIVES WITH THIS!
Next time Kindergarten Cop comes on, see if they cut out the scene where the little boys says, “boys have penises, and girls have vaginas”.
All Hyatt employees should be required to attend reeducation for this derangement, apart from the spox who put out this swill, they should just be fired.
I understand what they are seeing, but I also understand than when you look hard enough you can see whatever you are looking for. The question is who designed the stage and what were the motivating factors in this design? I could totally see a progressive who hated CPAC but wanted the work planting this symbol there for just this response while everyone else was completely ignorant of its meaning.
In order to defeat them, we must go places we do not want to go. It's a dark and confusing place. I tend to drink a lot after looking in to that abyss...the horror... I
WTF ever
Tin foil futures are up
The problem is that it doesn’t look vaguely like the Norse Rune, it looks exactly like it. I’d bet the bank that whoever designed the stage wouldn’t know what the Norse Rune was and this was a complete coincidence. I’d bet nobody at the Hyatt had an idea of what a Nordic Rune was either or else they could have complained before the conference started. But it’s still a chance for the other side to make hay of it.
The Hyatt Chain is owned by the Pritzker Family.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
It should. That fat slob arrogant elitist DemocRat governor of Illinois is in that family.
BOYCOTT HYATT!!!!
For the record, I like the design of Norse runes. I image this is the celebrated rune: ᛟ
And for the record, everything displaying a swastika isn't Nazi, not by a long shot:
YEP.
ANOTHER BUNCH OF DEMOCRAT BILLIONAIRES USING CITIZENS UNITED
WWII history is an interest of mine, and even though I’m familiar with a lot of the Axis uniform features - that’s one that I probably wouldn’t have recognized. Interesting how these people are so familiar with Nazi minutia.
Coronado Navy base. San Diego.
The stage could have been planned by the "Loyal Opposition".
Why isn't Europe panicked by events since November?
One of my faves, to date!!
😂
Agree, but read after posting.
Does anybody here actually believe that CPAC used a fascist rune symbol to govern the shape of their stage???
Combined PING! and DANG!
And if you do...tranny, guaranteed.
It was the shape of the stage, similar to a fascist rune symbol, that these knuckleheads were supposedly concerned about.
