Help me out, was the swastika ever for something other than the nazi’s?
If not then it shall ever remain a symbol of horrible evil deeds.
The swastika is also a symbol of good luck in South and East Asia. Its a very common sight in ancient-to-modern wood carvings in furniture, vessels, and architecture.
No offense, but try a wiki search on the history.
Shame this ancient symbol was stolen for something so evil.

Ancient symbol with many meanings. Apparently still used in some cultures - I didn’t know that.
I have a natural revulsion to it. But if not for that, I think I would find it to be an interesting geometric figure.
It was an American Indian symbol if I’m not mistaken.
A lot of aboriginal cultures have the swastika or variations of it. It used to be a good luck symbol too, I have a Boyscout shoe medal that has it, and my grandfather had a similar good luck type coin in some of his knick knacks.
