Answer: D. the symbol is considered offensive to Jewish people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The swastika was the official symbol of the Nazi party of Germany that was the ruling party in the second World War. The Nazis hated the Jews in particular and wanted to exterminate them as a race and this led to the killing of over 6 million Jews.

The Swastika therefore reminds Jewish people of the brutality of those who came up with the swastika and so is considered offensive to them for this reason.
