It's easy to mistake and yes indeed it came before like the other examples. I think the difference is that the roman salute is already culturally not-ok to use, so still using it is an intentional sign. The Ukrainian slogan on the other hand is quite commonly used without bad intend (although most Ukrainians also do not know much about the fascist history of Bandera to be honest).
I'm wondering why you're still replying, considering that giving historical context of the phrase is apparently forbidden because of "no".
Sorry, I don't get you. Edit: ah, because the mod removed the original post? I didn't see that.
