      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)
