The NationalSocialist German flag was designed for some other purposes;

To have a strong contrast so that it could catch the eye, same as the commie posters, but more innovative, thus better.

The red is also correlated to the victims of the Putsch demonstration.

The Swastika signifies the obvious Aryan contribution to the German Ethnicity.

The colours also coincide to that of Prussia.


However they do arouse the same feelings you listed there, too.

It's the colours we're talking about here, which are the same as those of the German Empire (which also had the same characteristics). The modern German flag has swapped white for yellow, i.e. mysticism for power.
