A Masturbatory ‘Homage’ to My Family

After all, this is an inanimate object...

The symbol, by itself, is not offensive. Neither is the "Jude", the German word for Jew.

The symbol isn't offensive, the fact that people, people who considered themselves good, forced Jews to wear that symbol to single them out for discrimination, abuse, and even death is what is offensive. Not the symbol, the act.

The symbol is now a reminder of that act, a reminder that we can never let it happen again. To attempt to hide or erase that symbol is how we try to forget the act and open the way for a repetition.

The mensch doth protest too much, methinks.

The logical extension of that is people wearing them around to make sure the symbols are not hidden or forgotten.

In no way offensive, fer shure.

These will be next...

Actually, you make my point. The symbol is innocuous. It is solely the motivations of the people wielding the symbol that imbues it with good or evil.

A person wearing that symbol in a theatrical recreation of the horrors of the Holocaust is doing so for a noble purpose.

A person wearing that symbol in mockery of the millions that died by those who forced Jews to wear it does so for an evil purpose.

Objects, in themselves, are neither good nor evil. They can only be made so by the people who use them.
