I'm fairly sure the poster that referenced swastikas wasn't making any point other than that Germany certainly
does have precedent for banning political symbols. Whether one sees a burqa as sufficiently vile to ban isn't some new precedent, just an object level argument about a specific symbol.
FWIW, I'm
not in favor of any such ban. Despite my contempt for the burqa as a symbol, I value free practice of religion and speech more than I value my personal preferences when it comes to symbols.
