Context is everything. After all, the US military had at least one medal that featured the swastika prior to WW2. In the later half of the 20th Century the down-turned pentagram became associated with the triumph of matter over spirit. Again, that could be up for debate but then if you have the EU combining the upside-down pentagram with the construction of the Tower of Babel (which God destroyed as a symbol of contempt) then one could get a meaning that places man over God.The downward pointing star was also used on both Nauvoo temples, and many Christian churches in Europe from the middle ages. And I am not aware of published claims the downward pointing star is symbolic of self or Satan warship that predate the first Nauvoo temple.
Trump and Mormon masculinity.
