> A swastika is an image that has no non-racist symbology.
It's been around for 12,000 years and is still central to Buddhism, Hinduism, and a wide array of other belief systems world-wide, including pre-colonial America. The word itself is Sanskrit. The German term for it was "Hakenkreuz". It means "welcome", "good fortune", and in some cases "victory" now just as it always has. Generally it's regarded to be symbolic of the earthly and/or solar wheel/cycle.
Meanwhile the Christian cross has been used for over 1,700 years as a symbol associated with the violent vilification of every other belief system bar none, and repeated global scale acts of genocide and tyranny. There are countless orders of magnitude more victims of Christian bigotry than Hitler could even imagine (notwithstanding his own verbatim statements affirming Nazis as being Christians). Yet unlike the swastika, no one seems to be calling for a ban on displaying the cross. Personally it makes me sick to my stomach every time I see it, after a lifetime of dealing with the violently delusion adherents of this superstition.
In just over 10 years, a globally ubiquitous symbol of other people's religion has been vilified and banned outright in many places, all to placate the indignant outrage of people who in plenty of cases were arm and arm with their own supposed persecutors. The only reason this is allowed is because it's Abrahamic religion (the all time historical `victim Olympics` champions). If it were any other religion, no one would give a flying fuck. Meanwhile now were're 3 generations removed from those events, and yet still have to kow-tow to this bullshit in order to escape persecution ourselves.
Hitler won, and we largely have Jews/Zionists to thank for it. He may not have eradicated the Jews in total, but everyone who now thinks the Swastika is hate speech, has acceded to the rightness of his theft of an element of the common spiritual heritage of humanity.
