Yes, but we're talking about neo-Nazis, not the original Nazis.
The neo-Nazis have apparently glossed over his indiscretions. It's not as if cognitive dissonance is anything new considering racists have always made do dealing with their out-group, labelling the ones they deal with as "the good ones."
If you watch Daryl Davis' documentary, Accidental Courtesy: Daryl Davis, Race & America you'll get to see this first hand as Davis, a black man, befriends numerous current and former Klansmen. They, of course, are able to compartmentalize their racism and their friendship with Davis.
