Yes, but the aspect you seem to not be understanding is that to a lot of people, that isn't just a meaningless symbol like it may be to you. I have no idea what the ethnicity or religious beliefs of most of the people in this game are, but to any blacks or jews who log into the forums and see a swastika as someone's avatar, that isn't going to be a pleasant experience for them. Especially if they have ever been the target of a hate crime or knew someone who was.
It is still a symbol associated with genocide, hatred, and white supremacy. Regardless of whatever meaning you apply to it, to the rest of the world it is a symbol of just that.
And to just "randomly" choose it as your avatar and tell people to "get over it, because it's just a game" is a bit naive...
