Danny are you crazy to put this meaning of swastika and even quoted saying it "by Hinduism".
Hinduism never supported "we are the best" kind of the strategy.
In fact literal meaning of swastika is for well being of others. The word swastika is derived from the Sanskrit swastika meaning any lucky or auspicious object, and in particular a mark made on persons and things to denote good luck. It is composed of
su- (cognate with Greek ευ-, "eu-"), meaning "good, well" and
asti a verbal abstract to the root as "to be";
svasti thus means "well-being".
Remember Hitler twisted the auspicious symbol in 45 degrees and made it infamous thru his deeds.

There has been several known places \ things in the world under Hitler franchise.
BTW, how many of know that the restaurant was changed with its name once it was published and condemned by readers of the newspapers.
The same was also done to Manusmruti (how to behave like a hindu ancient book written by a King Manu.) which was burnt by modern day hinuds that supported Un-touchability and thereby Racism.
You are trying to defend anti-semitism. This is disgusting and wrong.
The Hindus believe white aryans brahmans are the master race and dark skinned sudras are sub-human.
Inter marriage it prohibted and it is believed low castes have been born like that because of past sins.
Hindu caste system is racist and maybe thats why there seems to be no outcry to the Hitler restaurant.
There has been strong criticism [11] of the caste system existing in India. Some activists consider that the caste system is a form of racial discrimination.[12] The participants of the United Nations Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa in March 2001, condemned the discrimination due to the caste system, and stated that caste as a basis for the segregation and oppression of peoples in terms of their descent and occupation is a form of apartheid.[13]
In India, [14] some observers felt that the caste system must be viewed as a system of exploitation of poor low-ranking groups by more prosperous high-ranking groups. In many parts of India, land is largely held by dominant castes high-ranking owners of property that economically exploit low-ranking landless labourers and poor artisans, all the while degrading them with ritual emphases on their so-called god-given inferior status.
Matt Cherry, [15] claims that karma underpins the caste system, and the caste system traditionally determines the position and role of every member of Hindu society. Caste determines an individual's place in society, the work he or she may carry out, and who he or she may marry and meet. According to him, Hindus believe that the karma of previous life will determine the caste an individual will (re)born into.
