    I agree with this. We need better terms.

    Nazis were such a heinous and specific evil that we probably shouldn’t do anything that could lighten that term. At all.

    The part that makes me sad is that they appropriated the symbol of the swastika, and made it into a visage of hate and oppression. It’s a religious symbol for luck.

    I don’t think that reputation is changing anytime soon.

    The Nazis destroyed a lot, and corrupted so many things by association.
