D'ya think? lol 
PS: The Swastika symbol has exsisted for some 3000 years which obviously counts out any link to it being devised by the Roman Empire, variations of it appear in many ancient cultures as well as new.
Modern cultures associate it with evil & Nazism due only to its use on a large scale in living memory for some. The Swastika most likely will always evoke thoughts of Nazism and all its evils purely by association as one would recall any other major historical event by associations to it .
eg: US Civil War, one immediately thinks of Flags / Banners, I'm willing to bet cash money that it would be one of the Confederate South and not of Union North.
The more often we see something & its associations or continue to display it for whatever reason the longer it stays burned in memory
