I've made a psycho call to the woman I love, I've kicked a dog to death, and now I'm going to pepper spray an acquaintance. Something... I mean, what's happened to me?

So close I can almost smell it. But they'll never get there. Too much capital at stake, and the scent of money is overpowering.

Apparently some graphic design schools go out of their way to teach swastika-avoidance because it's apparently easy to make a swastika accidentally. I don't know if that's true or not though

A windmill/cross layout is (or was) a somewhat standard shape in architecture, due to being an efficient layout for regular buildings. Continue the efficiency logic while trying to spice it up with some angles, and you easily end up making a swastika. Basically, swastikazation is a natural part of the design world, hence it being so prevalent across cultures across the world. I could see a graphic design school deciding to make a course to avoid it and other symbols like the SS bolts, which are simple enough that they might innocently appear in a design.

卍 (a manji, aka the non-Nazi one) has a lot of historical and current usage, and is still used as the symbol for Buddhist temples on maps and the like. See also the above Zelda map.

schools don’t teach that cuz all you gotta do is look at it and be like hmmm does this look a little swastikesque?? same deal for the classic cock and balls. this stuff is like design 101 you don’t even get to use colors until you can identify your shapes. so if you see a dick or fascist icon you can be certain that somewhere along the line there was a designer who was thinking there’s no way they’re gonna pick the logo that looks like a swastika / twig and berries
