Very telling. Wonder if they feel persecuted whenever Nazis are depicted as the bad guys in films

Why would you wonder?

They've been complaining for like a decade at least. I think the big one they started was a Wolfenstein from 2014? But I'm sure it was happening on a smaller scale much earlier.

Hell, even during WW2 lots of capitalism and Republicans openly argued for staying out of the war or even joining the actual Nazis.

At the time they were fighting the Soviet Union, which capitalists saw as the ultimate enemy. So enemy of my enemy is my friend situation. This was also before Pearl Harbor and the final solution.

They were also fighting Britain and France, two of our closest allies. It was a poor excuse even then.
