  1. I wanted to post about how it would be unreasonable to strongly oppose this decision but all I can think about is the way James says the word 'swastika'. Really takes the edge off such a charged word. Sounds a little bit Dutch, a little bit Italian NY/NJ, yeah I like it. Seeing as this is just stream of consciousness, clearly, does a (famous) symbol exist that is essentially an edgeless swastika - I'm thinking something that represented female energy and infinity rather than fascism.

  2. +Tsuyara No, it was irrelevant and off the top of my head but not a joke! If you don't know what I mean by male energy and female energy, it's tied in with 'sacred' (exists in every aspect of nature) geometry and is basically straight lines and hard edges being male energy and spirals/round flowing lines being female energy. It's not "men have male energy, women have female" - there's both in all of us and in spiritual circles (no pun intended) the aim is usually to balance the two. Even the Hindu swastika has round dots in between the lines which brings the balance aesthetically but I was just wondering about a swirling female version of the swastika in an obviously pre-Hitler bastardisation symbol of peace and infinity. Thanks for asking rather than being unsure but assuming. This channel is visually (and aurally) a lot like the 'Spirit Science' channel so I sort of assume there's more of a crossover between the two than there is!
