I think there is a difference between the two, in that (as far as I know) the nazi usage of the swastika wasn’t really connected to its usage in Hindu/Jain/Buddhist (and probably some others I’m forgetting) religion, whereas the star of david is being used as a hate symbol by a group that loudly proclaims to represent all of Judaism (and is largely recognized as doing so by the west). Imo that means it’ll be a lot harder to reconcile the ongoing usage of the star of david in a post-Israel world.
The nazis were into a bunch of occult and pagan shit to mix in with their hot takes on Christianity. One reason they chose the swastika was because they believed in a made-up mythology about how the original Aryan race was the origin of the human civilization and their symbol was the swastika, which was “stolen” by Buddhists, Hindus, and various other groups.
So while the nazis were disconnected from the religions that used it, they had their own religious “interpretation” of what it meant.
