Swastikas and the glorification of Fascism

Postby Kralith » Sun Mar 08, 2015 10:29 am

I don't know what do you think, when you make a swastika with corpses in Providence.
I don't know what is your mind.

But i know, that this glorification is misplaced.
Not only, that swastikas was abused in the 1930er, it is absolutly misplaced in a game, which plays in the 1700er.

All those who can not reflect should treat yourself to a little history lesson or visit Auschwitz once.
Maybe then would it ends, that you be misguided in your head.

Unless the devs take the svatiskasers on the move IG, I believe that there is very little chances for your complaint to be heard. Although I suppose that now they'll be a little more carefull with what people do in Providence; but again you could have PM'd dev with it instead of bringing that into the forum.

PS : Nazi **** is something funny for some people playing this game, and that's probably not the last time you'll see something like this. I suggest you ignore it in the future or only refere to the devs if you're mispleased.
And there's no need to bring a debate about it as past has proven that it's sterile to talk about this here. You'll only get laughed at.

Have you even read the wiki article on swastika? Your butthurt is completely fictional (though like most of them).

Swastika is an asian symbol of greetings, sun, eternity and a bunch of other positive things. It was like that long before 20th century and it still is. Go to pretty much any asian country and you will see swastikas everywhere. You can not blame people making it's image ingame without knowing their actual intentions. And I won't even say how idiotic and hypocrite is projecting people's mistakes on symbols.

whatever (ab)users of the sign claim and say, the swastika was and still is linked to fascism and in a large part of europe that is the only interpretation it will ever get. I'm with Kralith on this one and I see no reason to glorify or even condone its use.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

You speak of the corpses in Providence but I'm sure some of the bases are shaped as swastikas. I remember crossing path with a few in the old world. I'm sure there are some in Providence too. Let's torch them!

You are the one who needs to treat yourself to a little history lesson and look up what swastika actually is.

I wonder if some of you would name their kid Adolf because after all it's a nice first name that existed long before it had a bad history.

I would consider it if it was a common name in my culture, because I'm not a pleb.
