Hello @volga629-1, thanks for the report. We take extremist views on our project very seriously and we use moderation to ensure that we don't give a platform to them. Fortunately in this case, the symbols in the external theme documented in our wiki [1] belong to a religion. Swastikas have long been a symbol of good fortune in several Asian religions [2], many hundreds (and possibly thousands) of years before nazism co-opted them. Unfortunately the symbol is now most known for nazism, but it is still very widely used among countries professing such religions [2]. I have added a disclaimer in [1] for future reference.
