As an 8 year old, I stayed with a family in Germany. They had a massive box of Lego and so I proudly made them a German flag from it. Found out later in life that the Swastika isn't the German flag.

I would like to believe this, as it made me laugh, but I doubt it ever happened.

@robertpi @fesshole I fully believe this could happen - especially if the kid was born in the 70s/late 60s when the parents might've had a stronger "Germany=WW2" attitude

although it takes a lot more skill to make circles and diagonal lines with lego than three horizontal stripes

Yeah, the kids ability to make a swastika flag out of Lego was the thing that really made me doubt, especially if it was back in the day when the bricks where simple.
