So when Sid Vicious (and other punks) wore a swastika, he wasn't trying to offend people?

OK, you're right. But, that's an example of something that was indefensible at the time, and still indefensible.

Punk Rock the MUSIC genre changed rock n roll forever and made it better.

Punk Rock the Swastika Wearers didn't need to exist.

It's the same today with 4chan the Meme Factory vs 4chan the Swastika Wearers.
