Crosses of many sizes and colors have been used as a symbol of Christianity since the second century CE (aka AD). It became commonly used in the fourth century CE.
This is because Jesus was executed by the Romans in a cross, called crucifixion.

It is just as stupid to say it represents nationalism or such as it is to say the OK symbol, made with your hand, represents white power.
Many things have different meanings to different people. As a child, I thought a cross in the yard was where a dead pet had been buried. Just a grave marker with no religious significance. Just as words can, and often do, have more than one meaning.
👌white power? Looks more like a rooster head to me.
