They don't sympathize with nazis. They see fascism as a necessary evil to preserve their power, which they value more than even the continuity of the species or the well-being of their descendants.
It's like the One Ring, you can argue you'll use it ethically or to do good, but ultimately it means employing Ringwraiths to take care of those who might stop you.
That kind of feels like a distinction without a difference.
Read it this way: They don't sympathize with Nazis, rather they are Nazis. More accurately, they're what drives fascist movements of autocracy and genocide into popularity. They're not just on the inside, but at the heart.
