Are swastikas ultimately a Germanic symbol?

submitted by palosanto to AskGoats 3.3 yearsJan 2, 2022 21:43:16 ago (+5/-0)     (AskGoats)

If one is not of German descent, does it make sense to embrace all that the swastika represents? Or should Scottish, English, etc., find their own symbol? I know that the swastika has roots in Buddhism, too, but that's not for Europeans.

Fun fact: With the creation of chariot warfare the ancient Aryans of the Steppes brought law and order to Indus Valley. This is known as the "Aryan invasion" To this day the Wheel of Law is one of their religious symbols.
