The dirty truth is that a lot of Americans sympathized with Hitler at the beginning of the war. This was a major reason for the US's initial neutrality. The universal hatred of Nazism came only after the war concluded.

The situation is similar to Apple and Google appeasing Chinese censorship today (albeit without the death camps).
