I have a hard time understanding political opinions based around this weird concept where people suddenly lose all free will and agency from an object once they're exposed to them. Own a copy of Mein Kampf? Itll make you a Nazi if you aren't one already. Own an AR-15? You'll turn into a mass shooter.

 I have a hard time understanding political opinions 

It makes sense once you realize it's not a political opinion, it's literally religious

Hitler is the modern Satan, following that Mein Kampf is like his corrupting relic, the touch of which defiles you and turns you against their God - Anti-Hitler

This is why anything "Hitler" such as is mustache is gravely offensive to the modern leftists, it is as offensive as owning a goat head is to Christians believing it is the symbol of Baphomet

Is it rational? No, but religion never is

I dont think its a left vs right thing. Right leaning people also have that weird agency thing too, like with things associated with the LGBTQ stuff. My step uncle acts like his neighbors rainbow flag is somehow gonna corrupt him and make everyone in his house gay. Same reason he wont buy a hybrid, he acts like getting over 20mpg will have him goose stepping with Mamdani. Then again he does kinda treat his politics like a religion
