    There are tons of fascists there, yes, but the problem with Nazis is that in Western pop culture they've long occupied a role similar to the Empire from Star Wars or Mordor, so your average mushy-brained, uneducated redditor type with no critical thinking skills reacts to Nazi memorabilia the same way as they would to a Stormtrooper's blaster rifle or an Uruk-hai helmet
