Straight to the "ANTI-SEMITE!!! card" eh?

> A comment in a thread about a swastika should not be used as an opportunity to connect Judaism to Israeli policy.

Fair point. I withdraw that and apologise for going off on a tangent. But I still don't accept that Nazis or Jews should have a say in the use of the symbol when used in the old ways as it was used before Hitler corrupted it.

Thanks for understanding.

And fwiw I agree that no one should try and suppress using the symbol in the old ways.

Context is important (putting it on a billboard in queens would obviously have a much higher chance of being misinterpreted) but cooler heads will prevail.

But in this context [not accusing you, just giving context for why I’m commenting at all] it’s just alarming when encountering a world view where people auto jump to jews are centrally organizing to try to control ~thing~. I understand it's very hard to quell this habit once it starts.
