Speaking as a fan who agrees with OP, I do think there's a little more sensitivity required if you're working with nazi or nazi-affiliated characters because nazis were and are real and murdered millions of real people. My own family history has been messed up by nazis, and it's really uncomfortable when I see people with Red Skull merch or trying to argue that Hydra doesn't count because even though they have nazi history and still push a lot of nazi ideas, they don't label themselves that way anymore. I do think showing that nazis and nazi affiliated characters in fiction are people is important because real life nazis and nazi affiliated folks were people too. They would do things like be nice to their spouses and pet dogs and all that. They probably thought they were justified and protecting certain "vulnerable" groups in what they did. But ultimately the level of atrocity nazis commit both individually and ideologically en masse leaves a very specific stain IMO. I've seen real life former neo nazis voice regret for their past choices and make very thoughtful commentary about why what they did was horrible and what they need to do going forward. Those real former neo nazis are doing the right thing trying to be stellar going forward, but I would never trust them and they have no room for error anymore. I just wish them success in being better people.

So basically, while I don't exactly disagree I do think when you deal with stuff that has real life ties on as massive a scale as nazism that's really dangerous territory and an extra level of awareness is necessary.
