Censorship because of WWII topics

[steIlarvore]

Today as I was going to listen to Marduk, I noticed some of their album covers which features symbols of the Third Reich (the iron cross and the German eagle) have been removed. Marduk has always stated that their music isn't politically motivated  and that they only write music and texts about or "as a soundtrack to" the cruels of the second world war, most of the times being viewed from the German perspective. 

I wonder why all the album covers which feature some sort of German symbolisms have been removed. I would understand if Spotify put some sort of disclaimer at Marduks music because it could offend some people, but to remove the album covers to me is a step to far. We can all respect the artistic freedom of the band especially when they have made it clear they're not a politically motivated band. Where will this end? Bands like Sabaton have been banned in Russia for just singing about the German army during WWII, which to me is ridiculous. I know the 1939-1945 period is a very painful topic, but to ban artists that write about that period from the German perspective to me is counter productive to open discussion. 

Reason for me to post this is to open discussion about it and to talk about it. I want to make clear I do not condone any form of nazism or rascism, I just think it must be a topic that has to be talked about in stead of "cancelled out" I guess, because in that way we will only reinforce those with foul thoughts.

This is just ridiculous. There’s definitely a solid line between showing something and  promoting something. Look at DOOM and all of its demonic imagery, never mind they are evil aliens that you have to fight.
