“Daddy. Can I have fries with my hate-meal?”
What do Chinese manufacturers care? A bowl of rice and a little Tai Chi is all any factory drone needs.
A happy meal should be fun. A bunny, a smiley face, a Swastika. What’s the difference? They all stick to the kid right?
At some point, you got to ask yourself, what’s wrong with this picture.
In case you forgot, the swastika, is most commonly associated as a symbol of the Nazi party in Germany and was adopted as the state flag of Germany in the 1930s. It represented a regime that brutally killed 6 million people. It is now outlawed in the country if used as a symbol for neo-Nazism.
But here’s where the Chinese might get a pass. What’s crazy in one world, is acceptable in another.
According to Google; In eastern culture the symbol is predominant in a number of Asian languages and the word originally came from the Sanskrit word svastika, meaning any lucky or auspicious object.
So if you get a Swastika Tattoo in Beijing that’s lucky for you. If you get it in Israel, you’re probably spitting angry.
If you get it with your happy meal, you’re asking to talk to the manager.
And that is crazy.™
