A bigger problem is the Nazi associations.

Isn't that like blaming the creator(s) of the good luck sign for Nazism and the "evil swastika"?

It's more Wagner's book about the Jews than the fact that Hitler took him up. He wasn't quite "the Nazis favorite composer" -- plenty of Nazis were bored to death by the Bayreuth festival -- but he definitely had strong feelings against the Jews and certainly was a major influence on Hitler himself.
