Re: Item Graphics thread
I partially agree with you... However, we simply can't ignore the fact that the vast majority of people know the swastika as a nazi symbol only and not what it really has been throughout history. Actually, every symbol is ever-changing culturally, and you can't deny the new meaning that was attached so strongly to the swastika.shubla wrote:-stuff-
So, yes, although I agree that there's a lot more behind it than Hitler and that it actually is a good thing, I can't let myself act on behalf of intellectual elitism by complaining or arguing whenever someone relates the swastika to the nazi, because this is its strongest meaning on the contemporary western world reality I live in
PS.: Sorry for derailing the topic, I just felt like saying this
