I feel like it's a chicken-or-the-egg thing: there's the aspect of fascism being normalized/glorified by uncritical fans and creators, and there's that of already fashy dudes being attracted by certain aspects of the lore.

(GW does a questionable job of reconcilliating the IoM's original satirical grimdarkness into a more 'protagonist friendly' setting in general. They do too much pandering to the lowest common denominator of their fanbase.
I wish they'd focus more on small scale stories, and adepta and cultures beyond the basic "astartes/imperial guards frontlines" stuff. Like, actually exploring the worldbuilding instead of it just being kinda there. There is more to war than the immediate battlefield.)

(Also, considering the pic: I'm a bit... disappointed by how popular the Death Corps of Krieg are. Too many low effort memes, & their dramatic/horror potential not being explored.)
