The Aryanne controversy.

Ranty rant time.

Well, can't say it's a rant, more of correcting an inacuracy.
Aryanne, if you don't know who she is already, then be prepared to have your morals questioned.
She would be considered an Aryan.
And she has a swastika for a cutie mark.
Shoker.
Most people cite her as being a Nazi,
She isn't.
Nazism is National Socialism. And while it is hard to argue the origins and actions of a OC, I have yet to see one portray her as having all the accurate qualities of a Nazi.
At most, she's a racist. Some of which make it the unicorn, others earth-bound. Others still earth ponies exclusively.
Racist, with a buddhist symbol on her flank? Yes. German (Or Equestrian equivalent)? Possibly. Nazi? No.
(After note: The creator of Aryanne said she was indeed a nazi. So I guess she is, even though it isn't possible. But, hey, headcannons. )

NEIN, listen. Ist not a "buddhist" symbol on her leg, it's a different symbol. The swastika was the name of the similar indian symbol, but this specific swastika was based upon the Norse sun cross, which is tilted the same way as this one. Which is why they are two different symbols, der Fuhrer Adolf Hitler was not an Indian worshiper, he was a Norse one. The Aryan race is known for being Norse based (although it ist someone who is born in Europe, and has lineage based in Europe for many generations, which would mean Aryann ist not Aryan), and the Iron cross among other Nazi crosses are based on Norse Crosses. So no, it ist nein an indian symbol, it ist a norse one.
