It's easier to organise people towards a "fuck spez" than the other alternatives, I agree. But at the end of the day, a symbol is just a symbol - without anything directing people towards action, it doesn't do much. And nationalists are already covering the message here and there with their flags.

Like the Occupy Wall street movement. It got a lot of attention, organized a lot of people, and accomplished nothing. People were like "what is this for?" And the answer was pretty much "we're angry!", So the reply was just "okay..."
