Xiaomi might want to rapidly reconsider its choice for the fast charging icon on MIUI 11

[Redaktion]

Xiaomi has been busy rolling out its MIUI 11 firmware on devices from its lineup, delivering many welcome changes to the previous iteration. However, one potential hiccup has been spotted in regard to the updated fast charging symbol. The new icon, which consists of two lightning bolts placed together, looks somewhat reminiscent to the insignia of one of history's most reviled organizations.

Is the SS like Voldemort? This is not an intelligent thing to "reconsider".

Greetings from Poland.
You guys should tell it to my grandfather. Sadly, he was executed in Palmiry massacre.
"The Palmiry massacre was a series of mass executions carried out by Nazi German forces, during World War II, near the village of Palmiry in the Kampinos Forest northwest of Warsaw"

MIUI 11 is awful
When somebody call me
My phone jumps to Google Assistant and camera.
I sent my report by screen recording but they haven't answered yet

As a student of history i suspected right away you would be mentioning the similarity to SS logo.
But you failed to regard the context it is being used and turning it into a bigger deal than it is. Common sense considering the context will say a double lightning bold would mean "super-speed". Also it's not uncommon for a shape to have different meaning depend on the context it's used in.  In this case, there not a single context that ties to the Nazi paramilitary group.
Looking from a positive side: Xiaomi is "re-branding" the meaning of those shape for future use.

Sure I love Xiaomi but please what about these Ads am seeing the whole phone. When you open a Xiaomi default App they have ads why? This company is too big to behave like this please consider us. Am using a miui 11.6 global version Android 9
