“This is the logical consequence when you dont teach history in school.”
Oh, they teach history. But not this kind of history. This does not fit the present narrative, pre-21’st Century America = Bad.

I'm also fascinated by animations from other countries such as the Communist era USSR, Nazi Germany and North Korea. I know we have had our cartoons over here like Donald Duck's "In Der Fuhrer's Face" and Disney's "Education for Death" with Little Hans but as we know our adversaries made their own cartoons and films. There is a fine line between being "fascinated" by these totalitarian regime produced films and being entertained or even inspired by them, especially if the viewer is immature and/or ignorant of history - which regrettably is all to often the case with the younger generations in today's United States.
And historical ignorance, in turn, is a major reason why younger voters were significantly more prone to vote for Obama in the last two presidential elections than were their parents and grandparents.
When you see man (or woman) in the street interviews on shows like "Hannity" on FoxNews, you can't believe how freakin' dumb some "millenials" are on American history and current events! Expose these nitwits to the films you mentioned and you're like playing with dynamite.

True. Although I'm interested in those animated films, I mean we hardly ever get to see how the "other side" looked from their end. Being fascinated is more of s study into them and I certainly do not endorse their take on things but it is just interesting to see something that we rarely see. Heck, I'm part Jew myself and I am proud my grandfather went all the way from Normandy to Buchenwald.
I do see your point. To many of the younger people, Hitler, Stalin and so on seem more like cartoon figures than real history and that is the sad point.

Well, these people are off the scene or are very old. What will happen when they are gone? There are idiots who dont know or think that we landed on the moon, and that was 25 years later and on TV.
Well, let's say that a Holocaust survivor was born in 1938, that would make him or her 75/76. Probably the youngest of them would be 70 now and the majority of them who talk to young folks are 75, 80 and above. Like the WWII generation, they are fading. B-( As to the Moon landings, you have to be over 40 at least to remember them so we have an entire generation of adults and so on who have never seen a man walk on the Moon.
