That has very little to do with banning the symbols or not though. The swastika was highjacked regardless of whether the symbol was banned. It's unfortunate, but I don't see much of a solution beyond resisting any attempt to highjack important symbols before they're associated primarily with Nazis / white supremacists / whatever. If your point is that banning will also restrict the non-racist interpretation of that symbol, context and reasonable interpretation when enforcing these laws can be used. I'm no expert on Germany / other places that ban iconography, but I would guess that a swastika clearly used in it's original context would be allowed to be displayed. FWIW, Hindu swastikas are legal in Germany: https://www.quora.com/Is-the-Hindu-swastika-permitted-in-Germany https://www.quora.com/Is-the-Hindu-swastika-permitted-in-Ger...
