The history of the swastika is interesting, or I should say histories, because it's not that unique of a symbol and has been independently created in half a dozen cultures.

But yeah, the Nazis ruined it for everyone. There's actually a story about how a Native American tribe had used the symbol going back easily a thousand years, and after the Nazis ruined it, they officially retired their own version.

Not just Nazis. Sometimes Hindu, Buddhist and Jains, too. And then there are those like me, white, Western Dharmicish folks who will not use it, or defend it, but know about it's uses pretty intimately, and get nervous whenever the conversation comes up, because so not a Nazi

Fucking Nazis ruin everything they touch
