I don’t think the nazi’s actually ‘created’ any of their own symbols did they? Maybe the stylized SS? They completely ruined the swastika which had been around for ‘nearly 7000 years’ according to the holocaust museum. While I wouldn’t expect a company to ever use a swastika, I don’t think every single stolen symbol they used should hold the same stigma…
Yes, that’s true about Nazis ruining other symbols, including swastikas (although, they flipped the direction of the symbol).
But this particular emblem was famously used by Nazi forces, probably more so than the swastika.
I just thought it was suspect for a German company dating back to WW2 to even consider this symbol on their products. There’s literally no point of having that symbol at all… **it’s not the company logo. **
