Nazis are no stranger to workarounds and skirting censorship. When the swastika gets banned, they just use the Sonnenrad, Wolfsangel, pseudo-runes, etc. and police end up abusing the laws to arrest people criticising fascism. Homework for the reader: find out how many times a party calling themselves a Centre Party was actually a fascist party. Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_Party_(New_South_Wales). Liberalist legal bans just turn fascism into cryptofascism, it takes community effort to root it out properly.
Hell even without legal bans and censorship, fascists can't just out and out say what they stand for until they gain solid ground with the electorate; most people need to be innoculated against fascism before they get behind the really horrible stuff. There's a reason the Nazi Party was called the Nationalist Socialist Party and not the Kill All Jews Party.
