I mean what was the end result of using a nazi symbol as the stage design for a group that is trying to secretly court the support of white supremacists, white nationalists, Neo nazis and general Qanon conspiracy nuts because they need these people to win elections?
Even if you take the firm's word for it that they were unaware and are taking ownership of the design, was there a collaborative process in coming up with these designs?
Of course there is. Whether you are having an outside company design a convention booth for $1500 or a 6-7 figure set like CPAC had, the buyer and designer discuss everything from the color of lighting to how to move it.
