The swastika is such an odd case. It became associated with so much hate and despair, yet its shape is so trivial, that it pops up everywhere.
There‘s an irony in that. The symbol used by those who deem themselves superior to all other peoples, so simple anyone could come up with it.
Did I mention fuck fascism?
