Whether or not they were Nazis has nothing to do with it. They were fighting on the same side as the Nazis, and they did so without any significant protest. They were on the wrong side of history, and it's going to take a long time for many people to forget that.

Yeah, flying a 109 in a sim is just like helping Hitler invade most of Europe.

David you need to buy a sim of people sitting on the porch together sipping lemonade and having happy moments in the sunset .In your eyes I guess even today German people are all nazis right ?

David,

which such a simplified view at the past, as you have shown in the last posts, you can only be shure of one thing:

your pov is, while not completely wrong, definitely not right, in the real world.

The times of black and white are long gone!

We're not talking about the real world. We're talking about movies. I think you'll find that the world view in most movies actually is "black and white". Complex bad guys are pretty rare. People tend to want their bad guys to be obviously bad.
