Nazis

But why did they choose to adopt it?

When it has been used as a symbol of peace?

The Nazis turned it into a symbol of hatred and intolerance, when originally it was a symbol of peace. And thanks to everything that's now associated with the swastika, no one will view it as a symbol of peace ever again.

Despite popular beliefs, the Nazis thought what they were doing was a good thing
