No. Bikers do not have a “complicated history” with Nazi iconography. Maybe some WWII veterans could have an excuse because they were killing Nazis and were displaying their captures, but no one today has any excuse.
You know what you call a non-white person wearing Nazi symbols? A Nazi.
The comment had a link to a documentary, the original biker gangs used captured nazi iconography since they were all veterans. It then morphed with the next generation and continued to change until biker today do not recognize the symbols as nazi and associated them with club founders.

I guarantee you they know what the symbols mean. Why would you wear a shirt with a symbol you didn’t understand? Let alone getting them as tattoos.
I have a shirt that’s a portrait of three huskeys. I don’t understand it, but I wear it because it’s hilariously corny.
The key word in that comment was “symbols”. The Nazi SS aren’t esoteric knowledge.
