So... They're both circles, and both have perpendicular lines, and both mention unity. Is that it? I'm not seeing much resemblance.

He's channeling paganinio.

Paganonsensio wouldn't have said "You be the judge". Dumbass.

Coincidence. Though the same wording does make you think twice about it.

The UNN Rickenbacker has an abstract lensflare of a star as their sign, Norsefire a double cross (literally).
One uses the martial colour combination of red/black, typical for totalitarian ideologies, the other uses a typical company blue.
The slogan on the Norsefire logo is actually an invention of the movie (as is the double cross), it used to be "Strength Through Purity, Purity Through Faith" in the 1980s comic books. I think they may have changed that because the film doesn't go in the details of Norsefire bringing the Church of England under their control.
So while there's some superficial similarity, I doubt that one influenced the other.

Norsefire uses the (

There is a vague similarity in the slogans but other than that I don't see anything worth comparing there... ZB if that's a satire of newbies you're doing an excellent job.

I suppose next you'll be saying the "1138" on Hydro deck isn't a George Lucas reference.

It was an evil reference, because it made me watch that film and I found it boring.
