You're stubborn as a mule, I give you that, but so am I. HYDRA was called the Nazi science division because no one knew that HYDRA still exists and has evolved beyond Nazism. During the war, they used the with the HYDRA logo, not the. I see that as a sign that HYDRA didn't just intend to replace the Nazi Party at the top of the power structures of the Reich, HYDRA intended to replace the Reich itself with the HYDRA Empire. Besides, which decent Nazi would even think about nuking Berlin?

Also, the ideologies change over time. Johann Schmidt was a die hard Nazi in the mainstream Marvel comics but eventually abandoned Nazism as a relic of the past and adapted to the modern world. Wolfgang von Strucker was also a devoted Nazi in the comics but he eventually realized that his ideology needs to evolve. In AoS, even Daniel Whitehall, the only Nazi in modern HYDRA, doesn't display the old "Hydra adler" in his office, only the original black flag.
