Tom Steyer: What's the icon he uses on his hand?
The symbol began to appear on Tom Steyer -hand end of 2017. He is not the only person to adopt it.
up between the top riders, during the democratic debate on Tuesday Tom Steyer Stand. You may have discovered him: he was The Candidate , caught in The Middle .
It was The Most fascinating moment in The Debate , But if you look at it closer, you have fascinated, perhaps even more.
On Mr. Steyer Left Hand was a symbol, crudely drawn in pencil: a large Cross with a smaller Cross in each quadrant.
It was not the First Time , the billionaire hedge-Fund manager, was seen with him in public - he draws it Every Day for at least two years - But this is a debate which the symbol is introduced to a new audience again.
What is the symbol?A symbol with five Crosses like this is known as a Jerusalem Cross and it was used as a symbol of The Kingdom of Jerusalem from the 13. Century. The Kingdom was through missionaries and European Christians, the Invasion and conquest of the Muslim countries.
There is no one agreed meaning, The Five Crosses - mean of different theories, you could put Christ and The Four Gospels, which suffered five wounds of Christ on The Cross , or The Four cardinal directions.
Jerusalem-The Cross seen at the entrance to a Franciscan monastery in JerusalemThe original icon is likely to be a date, also The Kingdom of Jerusalem and was in the feudal States in what is the country of Georgia is now, the since 2004, The Five Crosses on its national flag.
Why did Tom use Steyer?that means In an interview with BuzzFeed last year, before he announced he would run for the presidency,
"to tell The Truth , no matter what the cost," he said. "For a while now, I've drawn it, to remember it on my hand Every Day , reminding me to always tell The Truth . Later, I discovered that it is traditionally known as a Jerusalem Cross . "
Tom Steyer , in a BBC interview in June 2019, with the sign on his handHe seems to have begun, draw the symbol in the winter of 2017 and may 2018, even if on The Cross for you.
He also said it was The International sign of humility, although this is not as a thing.
Mr. Steyer - a long-term democratic donor is a Christian, and this month said, a podcast, he was 30 when he found God. But he has not drawn a connection between the faith and the symbol on his hand.
Instead, his drive to "tell The Truth " tied to a political group, the charges he Need in October 2017, is named, that focuses on the elimination of President Donald Trump out of the office.
It is a message that the 62-year-old has repeated itself. He also has corporate interests condemned, the influence on the policy of the government, and vowed to explain the state of the climate emergency on the Day One of his presidency, were he to be elected.
Who uses it?In recent years, images and terms in connection with The Crusades in the Middle East appropriated by white supremacists of a group.
When a white supremacist shot and killed 50 people in mosques in Christchurch in New Zealand in March last year, his so-called Manifesto, it was reported, included references to The Crusades .
White supremacists, a group marched in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, to see where a change in Jerusalem-The CrossBanner representation of the Jerusalem Cross , together with the term "Deus Vult " (God wills it), which was connected with The Crusaders , was (far right) provided the far right with a fierce rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in the year 2017.
But , however, the Jerusalem Cross was not considered a hate symbol by the influence of the Anti-Defamation League rich.
last week, the US president's son, Donald Trump Jr, defended shown posting a photo of yourself in possession of a weapon (also known as "Crusader"), the Jerusalem Cross , as well as a picture of Hillary Clinton in prison.
The photo posted days after the U.S. killed Iranian general Qasem Soleimani , said was in line with a tradition under the gun operator of "the representation of the Various historic warriors", The Company that produces the weapon, it was "to suggest objectively silly", The Cross was a hate-symbol.
"As with all symbols, context is everything," said Dan Jones , a Historian and author of the Crusader: The Epic story of The Wars for The Holy Land.
Jones has a tattoo of the Jerusalem Cross on his wrist. He received it a couple of years ago in Jerusalem, copy, a technique used by the pilgrims hundreds of years ago.
Historian Dan Jones has said, a tattoo of the Jerusalem Cross"In the context of a Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem, this was a symbol of peaceful worship," Jones.
"But in the context of Donald Trump Jr with a Jerusalem Cross on the side of an AR-15 rifle, the context is one of violence anti-Muslim violence is very clear and of a civilizational clash back to the Middle Ages . "
The fact that The Cross has different meanings, it means that every presidential candidate should be more careful about using it, Jones said, by the appropriation of such symbols could play into the hands of those who consider the US to be the aggressors.
"[Tom Steyer ] has his own reasons as to why you scribble it on his hand," Jones said. "But he must be aware of the different context. He would be elected President, then Isis propaganda they called him the Crusader-in-chief. "
Such a development is unlikely, But . As the Democrats enter the primary season, the polls put Mr Steyer far down on The List of the favorites for the democratic nomination.
