the chinese only say 3 things in a single sentence

4 when they're pissed off

Why didn't Mao got rid of the two manji symbols?

During simplifying Chinese script.

卐/卍

Why? Because they had it first

the symbol means peace

Hitler ruined it

In their histery Europeans got rid of any kind of swastikas, aside from Finns maybe bcuz they're Mongols.

But West and East Asian states had no problem with that.

You'd think communists would want to get rid of "nazi symbolics" first.

Not if you like your country's tradition so much

And know the small differences

the swastika is titled one way but the manji symbols arent

asians know the small differences

I don't know where calling it swastika came from, it isn't even its European name.

I guess it was later with demonisation of Hitler and banning it.

The common misconception is that "Hitler stole it from the Hindus and blackmailed it", but it was a traditional Germanic symbol he used like the runes and it was used by every human civilisation in history.

Russian Fascist Party used it in the same shape as Hitler even.

>In various forms it is alternatively known in various European languages as the Hakenkreuz ("hooked cross"), gammadion, cross cramponnée, croix gammée, fylfot or tetraskelion
Failed to mention Slavic name posolon.

Every human civilisation?

Yes. Even Native Americans.

I think the earliest one was found amongst the Harappans.

I'm only unsure about Pacific Islanders and Abbos.

US had a Native American division with Native American version of swastika.

Why is this?

Nazis went back in time?

Maybe?

No but seriously, why is this?

Common archetypes if I had to guess.

Or maybe there really was some spread of symbolism, but how did it end up in the Americas?

Must be very very old and important

or pure coincidence

but it was very important

So it could be that

Pure coincidence that cultures as apart as America developed it, yeah. It must be really a simple geometrical shape.

Depends on the meaning

if the meaning from america is the same as the others then I think it was just a culture who brought it to america
