  Swastik is a sacred symbol for Hindus and Buddhists. Next you will call us -ists and -phobes.

    Next he’ll be wearing a swastika on his arm and claiming “oh this is just a whirling log, a symbol of prosperity and peace”. And also “oh this is just a very black uniform that Hugo Boss made for me”

    It’s used by many cultures, but the point is Elon would wear it as an Nazi emblem and then riff how it was a symbol of peace. Just like pretending his fascist salute was a Roman salute.
