I was reading that you laugh you lose thread and some guy said the pope had a swastika on what he was wearing.
Go look up the real definition of swastika and you'll understand :\
In China, it's a good luck symbol.
In Europe, it use to be a symbol of peace until Hitler felt like screwing them up.
But because of the freakin Holocaust people always see it as a bad thing.

Btw, when i first saw the abbreviation "FTW"
I thought it was "Fcuk the what?"
And that was just a random fact :]

Yeah, in asain culture it has always been a symbol of good luck... if I'm not mistaken.

Hitler just loves fukin things up.

A swastika was originally used by hindus.. Hitler made it impossible to really use it now in the western civilization, dont know how they treat it in asia.

Funny thing is, in china, when we went to all the famous temples, the guardians in them had swasticas painted on their chests. And these are like, really really old buildings.

I remember on SHO Online, there was a buff that had the logo of a swastika, and people tried to irk the devs to change it, until they were told that it was an asian symbol of good luck...
