Merzbow, I've not heard that name in years. Nice.
Wait, there's a Jewish one? That's actually hilarious.
yes the swastika is a symbol in almost every culture
I was aware already, but I didn't know Jews used it.
its just like how hindus and buddhists use the "star of david"
when they came up with it before
Weird how one group of Jerries with under 2 decades of use of that thing can ruin thousands of years of heritage for everyone.
this was an american infantry battalions symbol for a long time
I rather like the look of that eagle.
Not as aesthetic as the German ones, but nice and geometrical.
Really though, can somebody here explain how the Nazi usage of such a common and old symbol ruined it for everyone without just blaming Jews?
It didn't ruin the symbol
It was portrayed as a symbol of hate
by obvious actors
It made it basically impossible to use in any form in the West, which is kind of ruining it for a lot of people.
Even the Hindus can't get away with it over here now.
Yeah they can
I bought brass hindu swastikas on fucking amazon
that i have hung in my room
Yeah, and I have a Nazi flag with five of the damn things on it.
Neither of us would go out with these things showing, though.
Availability does not mean acceptability.
I've met a couple of Hindu guys who've mentioned wanting to wear swasis but being heavily advised against it by their own families here in Australia.
who cares what people think
wear it
truth does not care about social acceptance
lol
don't dress as a nazi out and about
No shit.
i've worn a shirt that had a black sun on it in a public place while tripping on acid and no one said anything
who cares
