Yes, it should be clarified we are talking about the Nazi swastika.
Unfortunately in the West, the Nazi use of the swastika dominates the public perception of the symbol. (This is very unfortunate given the long historical tradition of the swastika in Asia and other cultures.)
As far as I'm aware, legally, context matters significantly in places where the symbol is banned; eg the Nazi swastika is outlawed in Germany because it represents a banned political ideology, whereas a Hindu swastika is not.
