@alice @punissuer @lednaBM i’m sure there must be a market for car badges to replace or cover the Tesla logo

Stickers that says: Swasticar
(Not my invention! But I think it's a very good idea.) Make them easily removable so you can't be held liable for damage. But have so you can do it again, and again, and again, and again.

@jarjan I have learned that what we have been calling a swastika, is actually a hakenkreuz...a reversed swastika. If 'hakenkreuzauto' was printed on a magnetic sheet (the kind used for calendars for fridges), it could be easily removed. Also, a poster cardboard label could be stuck on a car with masking tape - the kind used when you paint decals on cars. @peterbrown @alice @punissuer @lednaBM@stranger.social
@Tooden that's the first time I hear about this; at least here in Austria, Hakenkreuz and Swastika are synonyms

@punissuer Investigate the history of swastika on Wikipedia @jarjan @peterbrown @alice
@Tooden I did now. English wikipedia doesn't seem to support that claim, though (both directions were in use already, IIRC)

@punissuer
A quick Google Search (in Dutch) seems to indicate that the main difference is that the Nazis turned the symbol on to one corner. Otherwise is the same shape (she direction as used earlier in other cultures). Either way it's an appropriated/misused/abused symbol.
@Tooden @peterbrown @alice
@jarjan yes, that feels correct. However, I think when you find a swastika sprayed on – or scratched into – some surface, it's about a coin toss whether it's on one side or one corner
