    Accidental I reckon. It's usually stupidity rather than malice that causes this sort of thing.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Never go to a Hindu or Buddhist country if that's what you're offended by.

    If you ever had to design a logo or other sort of abstract shape, you will know just how easily it can end up looking like either a swastika, or a penis.

    If you take the arm on the right and flip it so the shoulder lines up in the middle with the left leg, you'd have a pretty nice swastika alright :pac:

    As a graduate of that fine institution I can assure you that this is not beyond the limits of their incompetence.

    Taken out of context and enlarged, and also wanting to see a swastika, yeah...there it is. However, on the page you linked to, you'd barely notice it...

    How do these things get published? Surly someone in the room looked at it and realised it looked bad.

    google: Catholic Church’s Archdiocesan Youth Commission.

    You couldn't make it up

    Here you go, in all it's MSPaint glory - institution name removed for obvious reasons.

    I also took the liberty of moving the dudes head.

    There definitely is an inordinate amount of short people with mustaches in Limerick anyway..

    Did the nazis wear tracksuits at all?

    Wanting to see it? It's at least 80% Swastika, and that link was just so people could check it wasn't just a joke, maybe this link suits you better?

    Yeah it’s real. Just google: bad logos, and see some of the absolute howlers that have been published.

    Incredible that these things get past everyone involved without anyone saying anything.

    If there are Nazi's there, they certainly aren't lurking in the PA & Politics Dept ;)

    But seriously, when I saw that symbol first, I genuinely didn't see a swastika. I saw this...
