There was a time when pentagrams and tattoos of SATAN were edgy and controversial

Now it's "ehh"

Only silly people still use them unironically and only silly people get offended by them.

I don't think it's silly to get offended by a swastika tattoo.

You didn't respond to the other commenters.

This reeks of "virtue signaling": Someone trying to show they are morally superior by doing the minimum effort, like blanket banning something. I never heard of swastikas in QR codes being a problem before.

Right, because nobody has killed millions of people while representing themselves with a pentagram. The comparison falls flat.

In the last 100 years the USA has bombed more people than all other nations combined.

Japan/Vietnam/Laos/Cambodia + most of the Middle East etc. have more of a valid reason to ban depictions of the American flag, than the West has for co-opting an ancient symbol of peace to mean evil and then refusing to "return" it.

Did you not see the other comments about this or just chose not to respond?
