    Fun fact: Swastika’s are actually allowed for artistic and similar purposes, but in the 90’s a dodgy ruling did not consider this exception. The reasoning was the same as ‘playing violent games make you violent’ . The court feared growing up with those symbols would normalize them.

    The ban got revoked in 2018

    So yeah, we were kinda behind the times, but it’s getting better.

      Yeah, I was pretty sure they fixed that, but couldn’t double check.
