Well that’s a headline I never thought I’ll write. Several posts and comments on the GOG subreddit have noticed a promotional e-mail that contains some… interesting symbols, which I can confirm with my own e-mail. As can be seen from the screenshot below, an e-mail containing a discount code for the game The End of the Sun (nothing out of the ordinary so far) contains 4 symbols that resemble Nazi iconography.



I was asking why people cry about that, not defending it
You can disapprove of something and not “cry” about it. Do you cry every time you dislike something?
You are asking why people having a problem with nazi symbols being used in a time when we literally have neo nazis gaining power and you are doing it in a way that intimates having a problem with nazi symbols being used is mockworthy.
I know right? It was just an innocent nod to Nazis.
I can’t even heil myself in public anymore, people are just so sensitive and overly political.
I guess I touched a nerve with that question? I guess that I should open a PR to Lemmy so they can ban people who type (or even ask) about those scary symbols?
Yes, Hitler was so devastated he shot himself in the head.
You honestly seem more bothered by the offense people take, however much you try to pass it off as surprise. Clearly you feel threatened by criticism of nazis so what’s that about?
They can’t help but self report
Try reading a book instead of asking strangers online if you actually care to learn something (I get the feeling that you do not)
