They can wear the left facing swastika if they wish.

The Nazi's did steal their symbology from many sources.

Roman, Occultic...

Swastika origin theories

Anyone that thinks the swastika originated from the Nazis or Buddhism
is under a misapprehension.

we know the swastika design has bn around for millenniums, the question is where did the nazi's get their idea of it from?

i think it was the buddhist monks

I thought the story was that Hitler saw a left-sided Swastika on a Hindu sculpture or picture and took the idea from that.

no its like saying they both originated from the same belief system.

Which all have their roots in ancient Egyptian (and/or older). Oh no I didn't.

One theory is that the swastika is an old solar symbol. Relatedly, recent scholarship with ancient Indian and Vedic documents reveals a legend concerning a mythical demonic semi-deity who was obsessed with world conquest and the destruction of subject people/races. His name is difficult to translate from Sanskrit, but it's phonetic rendering into English sounds something like "Putz."
-Mizta Bumpy (HERRBUMPY)

I'll agree with it's demonic origin. I wouldn't call it "mythical."

Wheel of life, yes. Meaning nothing lasts, everything changes, it moves, nothing is static and the likes.
