        It was originally associated with the WWII nationalist Banderite movement, which has some dubious history

        They're fascists, they're all fascists, no ifs ands or buts here.

            Let's take a look at one of those "dubious" bits of history, shall we?

            CW: Participation in genocide

            The vast majority of pogroms carried out by the Banderites occurred in Eastern Galicia and Volhynia, but also in Bukovina.[3]: 237  The most deadly of them was perpetrated in the city of Lviv by the people's militia formed by OUN at the moment of the German arrival in the Soviet-occupied eastern Poland.[16] There were two Lviv pogroms, carried out in a one-month span, both lasting for several days; the first one from 30 June to 2 July 1941, and the second one from 25 to 29 July 1941.[17] The first pogrom took the lives of at least 4,000 Jews.

        "Sure. I’m sure Trinidad and Tobago, and Albania, are definitely Nazis. And those anarchists with their black and red flags, they’re definitely Nazis too, right?"

        Person 2:

        "This is like defending the use of a Swastika because it is also a Hindu symbol. Everyone knows this isnt about Trinidad, Tobago, Albania or Ancoms."

        I-was-saying "I defend the use of the swastika as a Hindu and Buddhist symbol…"
