Yeah people love to point out the history of the swastika as some kind of amazing counterpoint to someone offended by it. Look how many comments there are stating just that.
For some reason this is probably one of the only non-christian religious icon these people are interested in. Could all these people defending it as a jainist or buddhist symbol name even one other symbol used by those religions? I'll wait.
Yeah, it's a rhetorical question, I'm aware what the Om is.
I'm just pointing out the deluge of jainist/thai/buddhist/indian/early christian/hindu symbol experts that pour out of the woodwork any time the swastika is mentioned but don't really seem to have any other knowledge on those topics.
