How is it absolutely crazy? The game does. Personally, I dont think it does it out of malice, I think they wanted to include Nazi germany as a playable faction and didnt want to represent the horrors of the holocaust to make players feel like they were supporting that or even worse, give Nazis the additional thrill of feeling like they were perpetrating that in a video game. Still, that results in a whitewashing, and right wing extremists did take an interest in the game because they find things like that funny and ironic. Theres plenty of discourse around this very issue with the game. I tried to link some examples but apparently comments with links are auto-removed in this sub. Anyways you can google search and find tons of older posts talking about the representation of Nazis in the game and how many feel its whitewashing, in poor taste, or just straight up antisemitic.
