    That's still going to take time. It is like their main symbol. Education on that in schools will go a long way. And it's not just Buddhist either. Native Americans and Irish used to use them to.

    Before 1930s that symbol was in magazines and shit too.

    I believe 7 generations is the gold standard

    I don't know because all that media around it will still exist. And we are already like five generations in.

    We had the richest man on earth throwing hitler salutes at the US presidential inauguration. I think it's entirely possible that the swastika will be acceptable again within the next two generations. But it will be for the wrong reasons...

    I mean let's count - boomers, gen x, millenials, gen z is only 4 generations later. Generation gamma or delta can decide if it's a redeemable symbol and I cant imagine they'll care all that much what their great (great) grandparents generation thought about it.
