Nazi symbol is not a swastika, It should be called what nazi called it. The word swastika is Sanskrit in origin and means “conducive to well-being. There is enough evidence to prove this word's ancient history in various cultures and religions. Conanishicx (talk) 12:07, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fourteen Words: David Lane Didn't Make It Up

David Lane did not invent the Fourteen Words. This falls on the shoulders of George Lincoln Rockwell, the late commander of the American Nazi Party. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZoomerEnlightenment (talkcontribs) 02:27, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source for this? Beyond My Ken (talk) 02:30, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request for comment regarding how to represent the Nazi symbol

Swastika is not Nazi Symbol but Hakenkreuz or Hooked Cross

The Nazi symbol has always been Hakenkreuz or Hooked cross. Swastika has nothing to do with it. The documentary Silence of Swastika reveals how Hakenkreuz of the Nazis turned into Swastika as part of a conspiracy.Airpowerobserver (talk) 07:50, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Airpowerobserver: There has already been an Rfc (Request for comment) on this topic (see here[1]), the community consensus was that the Nazis used it. Next up, the you tube "documentary", not reliable at all see WP:RS, and as for the conspiracies and whataboutery absolute bullshit!. My apologies if this sounds rude. Since the Rfc is barely a few months old, a new one is not likely to happen any time soon but if and when there is a new one you may voice your opinions over there. Good day !

Real meaning of Hakenkreuz is Hooked Cross Het666 (talk) 03:53, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We use the most common English equivalent of a foreign word, which in this case is "swastika". All such esits anywhere on Wikipedia will be reverted on sight. Beyond My Ken (talk) 09:11, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The English equivalent is Hooked Cross and don't try to divert it onto people of Asia to escape scrutiny. That's inhumane.Airpowerobserver (talk) 09:13, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If the English equivalent to Hakenkreuz, as you say, would be Hooked Cross, why is it that when I look up the term Hakenkreuz in the German Wikipedia the search results in swastika?--Catflap08 (talk) 13:58, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's not the swastika, It's Hakenkruz meaning the hooked cross. So kindly edit the page
