That’s just ignoring history. There are plenty of good reasons to hate the Nazis without needing to do that.
In the similar way, it’s not necessary to dismiss Soviet Union’s early modernization successes in order to blame them for their crimes against humanity.
Dismiss what? Fascism is catabolic. They can’t build anything. They can only loot until they run out of victims.
The projections of hyper competence and secret knowledge are part of their branding.
Stop being a fascist apologist.
