SS perhaps can never be anything else then the negativity associated with it.
Think of historical connotations for the words Sodom and Gomorrah, Lucifer, and so on. Over centuries these still have bad karma and such associated with them and always well.
Reason being, that is what we are taught and schooled on. Can KKK ever fully be appreciated as something significant other than the first thing that comes to mind?
No.
And I would think that 100 years from now that SS will still have the same meaning and significance. I believe there will always be a certain element of the neo-Nazi types that revere the swastika and the SS lightning bold graphic. It's a rallying point for those that want to belong to something. |
Other than VW, the only other one I know of for sure is Hugo Boss, and I think that was already mentioned here. Toss IBM in there as well, unexpected that one.
