The Tee shirt was not just a swastika but a Nazi flag, but I do agree this was down to Thais being ignorant of the Nazi atrocities of the last century, I would imagine most Thai would not be able to comprehend 6 million.

No, the Nazi swastika is unique in its tilt and colors , it is similar to the Buddhist swastika , but not the same . I am surprised that you didnt know that , especially after you stated how knowledgeable Westerners are about Asian history . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised that you didnt know that , especially after you stated how knowledgeable Westerners are about Asian history . aside from moving tilt and changing color is it not essentially the same? the average person short of analyzing and inspecting the two would see the striking similarity. my skills as a historian did not know the tilt and colors an analogy is the average person likely would not see the difference between a left and right isomer chemical structure. again no disrespect for the victims of hitler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's optimistic. I reckon 50 years from now if Israel still exists there will be similar news stories of Thais displaying Nazi stuff for fun and the Israeli embassy calling it out. It's kind of like cleaning house. It's never finished. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
