A covert white supremacist symbol used by Neo-Nazis and members of the Alt-Right. The "fashtag" is identical to the popular hashtag or pound symbol used on social media, but it is used for nefarious purposes to promote white supremacy at Neo-Nazi rallies, and it is used in prisons, by the Aryan Brotherhood, for example. The symbol has only recently been outed as a hate symbol, thanks to Neo-Nazis on the notorious /pol/ section of the 4chan message board.
"John, you can't use the hashtag anymore. Apparently, it's a Neo-Nazi symbol referred to as the "fashtag." Don't you know the real meaning behind it?"
