I agree. It is an ancient, ancient symbol in many cultures. I had Hindu neighbors that put swastikas on their door during Hindu festivals and prior to the Nazi rise to power it was just a symbol of good luck in the West.
Also they ruined the toothbrush mustache. Once during the end of a no shave November I decided to see how I would look with that mustache… and I honestly thought it looked good on me.
But I knew I had to shave it off because there was no way I could keep it. Made me hate Hitler more than I already did.
I’m Jewish and I give you full permission to take the mustache back.
It’ll help if you wear your “I’m not a Nazi, I’m just taking the mustache back” shirt.
I didn’t downvote but kinda groaned when I read the above comment.
Explaining a joke (especially when it’s pretty self-explanatory) can be irksome…. especially when explained in a tone like they’re having some revelation about some deep hidden meaning…
Me neither. When I checked the status of my comment I was wondering why also. I mean it is a dollar sign, yes, but it also very clearly has a swastika in the design.
Which is the entire point of the design, so your comment pointing this out becomes a bit weird.
(I haven’t downvoted you though. I’ll die holding the belief that downvotes should only be seen as an indicator of a malicious or off topic comment, not as a simple ‘disagree’ button)
It looks like intersecting swastikas than a dollar sign. Which is kinda fitting…
I really wish swastikas were not used in connection to Nazi stuff, but what’s done is done.

I am not sure why the down vote, that is the literal intention of the design.

Well i will attribute it to my autistic mind speaking outloud (then my fingers typing it here).
