The swastika changed from a good-luck symbol for "well-being," to a
bad-luck symbol for "socialism."
Most people do not know that a cross was wor****ped as the notorious
symbol of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The group
called the symbol on its national flag the "Hakenkreuz," not the
swastika. Hakenkreuz means "hooked cross." The term "swastika" was a
bad translation for "Hakenkreuz." Even the UK and the USA also used the
term "crooked cross" (and hooked cross, armed cross, twisted cross,
lucky cross) before "swastika" became dominant. The eventual dominance
of the term "swastika" might have occurred in part as an effort to
slander a foreign symbol, in an effort to distance the cross from its
association with German Christian Socialism.

Although the swastika was an ancient symbol, Professor Rex Curry
discovered that it was also used sometimes by German National
Socialists to represent "S" letters for their "socialism." With a 45
degree turn of his Hakenkreuz, the leader of German National Socialists
combined the cross with collectivism, merged church and state, meshed
religion and socialism, and mandated the wor****p of government.
