Maybe it's just me, but I couldn't make out any swastikas. I did, however, find Waldo.

I've been in the graphics/printing/newspaper industry for almost thirty years.

There is an entire generation of graphic designers who have never even heard of a negative, dark room, printing press or film let alone what a swastika looks like or what it stood for and the gravity of its display in any form.

My guess is that this is a 100% genuine mistake of oversight and nothing else.

Agreed, it is very difficult to see but when you do locate the design it pops right out.

Ms. Shapiro called her rabbi and then complained to managers.

It's clear now. I can completely understand how that would piss Jewish people off.

I can 'see' the swastikas, but you kinda have to be looking for it on some level.

She called her rabbi ... :lol: :lol:

I was the worst at those 3d hidden picture things everybody had in the 90s. I'd always say I see a train or a frog.

Well, it's blue and geometric, so it's probably for Chanukah, yeah. That does make the appearance of a swastika unacceptable, but at least it's not as if it's intended to be a swastika.

You don't know that it wasn't intended. I would put the odds at 50/50 between honest mistake and anti semite working at graphic design place trying to slip it in. Just think of all those Jews opening their presents and not realizing they've been staring at swastikas for the past 8 days.
