I showed this to a few people, and they were like, "Hey, what's that swastika doing there?", so it's not just me. Below his left hand, scratched (or photoshopped) into the wood, there appears to be a swastika, or at least most of a swastika. The mind fills in the barely missing part on the lower left and the upper right is obscured by his hand. Pretty bold subliminal move, if that's what it is.

no one "accidentally" makes a scratch with a 90 degree angle.
This is just Scottie affirming his White Pride for his natural supporters.

A swastika looks like a cross, but with a right angle on the end of each tip. That's not even "most of a swastika".... not even close!
