A television comedy sketch featuring the Nazi swastika has sparked backlash for being unfunny, inappropriate and offensive and authorising antisemitic hate.

The clip poking fun at home haircuts during COVID-19 lockdown aired on Wednesday on youth news show, The Feed on Australias multicultural broadcaster, SBS. It showed a woman calling herself a freaking bald Nazi after discovering a swastika-shaped birthmark on her head.

The stylist in the video said, Ok can I just say I do find that symbol very racist. And we do not tolerate that sort of hate here. The woman responded saying she is Jewish, and later said shes been kicked out by her parents and must wear a hat or shell get bashed.
