How about using the term Hakenkreuz or something similar to represent the anti-semitic meaning and stop appropriating the term Swastika? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika

For the very obvious reason that the percentage of population aware of what the term Hakenkreuz means is literal orders of magnitude smaller than those familiar with the term Swastika?

I mean, feel free to run a "taking Swastika back" information campaign, but also, you know, good luck.

> the percentage of population aware

Very much not a good reason - in fact, a very bad reason. Conformist, destructive, declining, orwellian...

You are not to speak like the ignorant.

Also, the Hakenkreuz is a pub in Schweinewalde, Saxony, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tpEXvWUeIw (in German).
