True. However, even you were able to identify that his avatar was not a Hindu/Buddhist swastika. His swastika was tilted in the same fashion one of Nazi origins is. Hence why he has been given two warnings.
You're the one getting tilted, mate. Buddhists and Hindus typically have the symbol rotated as well, the unicode character just doesn't show it that way. But let's not pretend it wasn't a direct reference to the Nazis, right? It was a direct reference to the Nazis, and even still, I don't see why a single symbol is a bannable offense, but "Faggot Wrangler" as your title that shows up on every post isn't. I'm not saying "Faggot Wrangler" is offensive, I just think it's clear that a swastika is also on par with "Faggot Wrangler" and is also not offensive. So I mean, why is this line being drawn here? Is it truly arbitrary or are there sound reasons that one symbol is inherently offensive somehow (despite the fact that most people aren't offended by it)?
However, in compliance with the admins, I have changed my avatar so as to not display a swastika, NOR DOES IT DISPLAY PATRICK STAR, as I believe this is the true reason they were against the picture. The seastarphobia in here is palpable.
