That’s really really unfair. So first west fucked up our symbol and now west won’t educate itself about the actual symbol? Swastik is such an ingrained part of my culture and religion, can’t just give it up.


Of all the terrible things the Nazis did, this is probably one of the least terrible ones. shrug


You shouldn't.

IMO it's kind of understandable, at least on the individual level, that people don't know. I probably didn't know until I first travelled to Asia. However, it doesn't take a genius to realize that a map (or whatever) in an Asian country probably isn't full of Nazi symbols, or that there's probably some kind of an explanation for them.
