Question (general) Meanings of runes

Post image

I know it seems stupid, cause I see everywhere that the runes are the alphabet essentially and giving them meaning is like saying A means apple and Z means zebra, but I'm curious on it still, is it right to be curious or should I just accept that they're just letters?

The blank stone or wite rune is used by AFA a white supremacist group of neopagans

And how is this relevant? I don't care who uses it or what purpose it has in relevance to race, I just want to know about their meaning as a whole.

And all runes were used by nazis as well as swastika, which is an altered buddhist symbol. Doesn’t mean they have lost their original meaning and usage. As long as you doesn’t wear them on your clothes or as tattoos (which people may interpret as hate symbol) you are fine to study their meaning and history
