In short, a bunch of years ago he did some stunts for publicity that put him in a bad light. And don't get me wrong, he deserved criticism back then. But it quickly became apparent that it wasn't his view, but just that - a publicity stunt, something to drive algorithms etc, and he also apologised for it and what's more important, didn't make similiar shit afterwards.
So no, not a nazi. In the past you could call him edgy or something, alas even that doesn't really fit as he didn't do this all the time. But people saw he is popular and saw what he did and decided that no matter that these were one-offs, he must be a nazi, secretely harbor a shrinet o Hitler and all that.
Ok
