    It’s a symbol, often used by the baltic cultures, often symbolizing sun, god, or perkūnas (a god similiar to zeus). And boy was it popular.

    Many traditional clothes, chests, doors, furniture are often decorated with svastikas.

    It’s a neat little symbol and fuck the nazis trying to monopolize it.

      I am a baltic person and haven’t heard it before or seen it before.
