The real difference between Nazi swastikas and Buddhist/native american/Indonesian/etc.. swastikas is that Nazis put it on an axis that made an X. The rest have it standing upright.

Buddhist ones stand for Love, Life, Luck, Light. 4 Ls connected; inverse it and you get Hate, Death, Misfortune, Darkness

I appreciate your knowledge on the subject but the 4 Ls connected thing is BS lol. That symbol has existed without the English language being necessary, nor a Instagram thotty's quote.

Whoa, one of my coworkers said some dude...with a pack of Babyboomer from Florida, who were annoying kept flashing a Trump Card during check out today...I wonder if it was that. They were also insisting on buying a shitty wine in large amounts that we didn't have. The whole thing was weird.

I suppose that was the card he was flashing. Jesus.
Tourist Florida man is a real thing.

...Funny they were actually asking about the lockdown in NY and what it was like.
They didn't even seem to realize the Bars and Restaurants were closed last year.

Generally I can deal with tourists, and I tend to like them, those people sucked.
And yes, it was...in the very least an okay boomer moment.

I think that's what was going on today.
I was just a Karen husband, in this case.
Not even joking.

Yeah that 4 Ls thing is definitely some American social media bullshit, but where I live you see Buddhist manji all the time and the symbol is also a word in the language.

I mean, it's absolute cringe and anyone who would actually carry a card like that that serves no functionality, and is just there presumably for you to accidentally whip out instead of your credit card at Target to inform your cashier of how much you love Trump, should probably not have any human rights. But it is borderline TDS to say that something that utilizes iconic American imagery is straight out of Nazi Germany because they also had eagle imagery.

They still use the Buddhist meaning for the symbol in Japan, which causes them some trouble in America.

The nazis used eagle imagery a lot
A byproduct of their roots in the Holy Roman Empire.

The Eagle insignia is not a Nazi symbol, its a Roman one. It was then used by the Germanic successor states of the HRE in an attempt to legitimize the new governmental structure by using similar iconography. Then when Prussia became Germany, they adopted it as a Germanic symbol. All the Nazis did was continue to use the symbol that the Germanic world had been using for a thousand years, and in fact continues to use it to this day.

The US even uses it in part because the classical era was super popular in the 1700s, and the Founders were fans of the Roman Republic.

As a huge Romaphile, and a huge fan of Germanic history, I really hate that its become a Nazi thing. You cant even display a basic Roman standard without everyone thinking youre an alt-right douchebag.

Someone mentioned the roman empire thing. But I also seem to recall hitler admitting he loved American literature and him also trying to have good relations with america at first. Well at least sending us propaganda to persuade us to be a little more like them and I assume us be on his side

What I stopped arguing with you or whoever about it. And im not engaging with other people claiming its a Nazi symbol. I'm now just having civil discussion with other people.

When I said I was gonna bow out I just meant I wasnt gonna argue about it anymore. Y'all have yalls minds made up and I ain't gonna change it.

Alot of us aint on that bullshit cops are. We just needed a job. As long as they aint making me look bad I tend to leave em alone. We actually have a term for ir and it applies to most at my unit "turn key" which means we are just there for a paycheck.
