My take, which is less charitable in some ways and more in others, is this: Anti-colonialism is aimed at the West and especially at countries associated with the current West. The most anger is felt towards US colonialism. Failing that, British colonialism, and anything involving Western cultural institutions such as Christianity. Colonialism that opposes those is not so hated. If you interpret the current zeitgeist as "colonialism is wrong", therefore, you'll be constantly surprised when less-Western colonialism is given a pass. If you interpret it as "the West is evil", and notice that the British are the ones being colonized in this game and that Western religions are being robbed, you will be surprised much less. It's true that Norse are also associated with the Nazis, but I think that's a coincidence. The Norse are being whitewashed because they're sticking it to the Man.
