The words "triskele" and "triskelion" represent a broad variety of three-pointed motifs. Most triskeles, such as common designs of Celtic triskeles with three spirals, are not closely associated with hate movements.

However, neo-Nazi movements have created specific varieties of triskeles to use at hate symbols. Typically, these resemble three-sided variations of Nazi Swastikas. The most common of these is three straight-lined "7"s joined at their bases. It is noteably used by the South Africa-based Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging.
