As far as I know time moves in just one direction and those dates are after 1918. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to gross you out on purpose. I just don’t understand calling it a Nazi symbol for how it was used after Finnish Air Force adopted it. To me it seems clear that if it was adopted before those things existed/happened then how could they have adopted a Nazi symbol?

I was refuting your claim that Nazism wasn’t around at the time.
And what’s your excuse for it’s continued use after 1920, when it publicly became a Nazi symbol?
Did they just not have paint, and wanted to be polite to the guy who donated 1 plane?
Oh wait, the swastika was a symbol for Aryan purity as early as 1912.

I think if we consider those Aryan purity people proto-Nazis (and I think we can) then I admit to being wrong about proto-Nazis being around.
That’s kind of you, thank you.
Eh, online arguments are bad enough without people stubbornly refusing to admit when they’re wrong. I try.
