I’m not surprised.
It reminds me of a maze I made for a game server. I laid out my paths and then looked from above and realized that some intersecting corridors had accidentally formed a swastika. Upon noticing it, I thought “oops”, and adjusted the maze to remove it. I didn’t stubbornly leave it in because it wasn’t intended to be that, I recognized what it looked like and immediately knew I didn’t want it in something I designed.
If I were making a board game and I realized I’d just about put the SS logo in it as a resource marker, I’d do the same and just change the marker. Easy. I think most people would if they noticed it. When someone makes the decision to instead include it, it might mean that they just didn’t notice. But it also might mean that they did notice and give zero shits about being associated with nazi imagery, even if they weren’t intentionally going out of their way to include it.
This dev may not be a straight up nazi, but they certainly don’t seem to give a shit about being associated with or known for espousing bigotry.
