Swastika at Omaha fashion week

8. I always thought the Nazi symbol was inverted from American Indians' designs.

I just looked it up and this is correct. Also, visually, the Nazis used the symbol on an angle/diagonally, while American Indians use the symbol horizontally. I think that is the main difference, visually speaking. I studied art and design and trained as an illustrator so I am more of a visual person. If it is used by a fashion designer on a diagonal/angle (as in this case) I think it is intentionally a hate-symbol.

"The Nazi party adopted a right-facing, inverted version of the swastika as their symbol, which led to the symbol's association with hate, antisemitism, and the Holocaust.

Confusion and Misinterpretation:
Because of the Nazi association, the traditional swastika is often misinterpreted as a symbol of hate, even though its original meaning in many cultures was positive and spiritual.

Examples of Navajo Symbol:
The "whirling log" or "falling log" is a sacred Navajo symbol that's sometimes confused with a swastika, representing humanity, life, the constellation, moon, sun, equinox, the four directions, and the rotation of the earth."
