That was going to be my followup question. I don't see how we can allow such thing. Even on User pages. We would have to allow swastikas.
I think the question needs to be asked as to why we don't allow swastikas on user pages. I don't neccessarily think we should, but the argument should probably be articulated.
I have a hammer and sickle on my page, which was awarded to me and I've left it there. Is anyone offended by it (besides the anon who called me a Communist for having it there)?
I don't think the hammer and sickle has anywhere near the same effect today as the swastika does. It's a fairly generic symbol for communism, and communism, despite the actions of Stalin, is a far cry from nazism.
