so... following your analogy, where's the preexisting symbol of a white man choking a red man, causing this symbol to be associated with .... ??? oppression? atrocities? unchecked state sponsored racism?

I don't understand the question. A white man choking a red man is that symbol, unless given an alternate explanation. The preexisting image is US history. That should be self-evident.

You need extra backstory to explain that the image isn't actually a white man choking a red man.
