I’m no expert but using my gcse RE… the Buddhist symbol is an 8 spoked wheel because they follow the eightfold path. (Right views, intention, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and concentration).

360 degree circle \ 8 = 45 degrees

It suddenly dawned on me. OP is referring to the swastika. OP apparently thinks the swastika is a symbol of Buddhism (although actually it's also used by Hindus, Jains, and others to mean various things). It's also a Nazi symbol, but the Nazis depict the swastika rotated 45 degrees compared to when it is used as a religious symbol. So OP is saying he's a Nazi. And that's why the joke was removed.

/u/1ns0mn1a had it right. /r/GaryV83, read this.

You get notified when someone replies directly to your comment, but when a third person (me) replies to that reply, you don't. I figured you wouldn't be notified; that's why I tagged you.
