It's a German military emblem. Displaying it IMPLIES a sympathy for German nationalism and militarism.
In turn, it IMPLIES aligning with the ultimate Germanic nationalist militants; whose worldview was premised on racism.
It may not strictly DEnotate racism but it easily CONnotates it, and certainly doesn't DISTANCE the user from it.
