I think the issue isn't that Aryanne "turns people into Nazis" and it's more that trivializing historical Nazis into these leather-clad cartoonish supervillains (as a lot of people seem to do) downplays their overwhelmingly negative impact on history, and may cause people to not take them as the threat they are when confronted with actual Nazis. SorIta's like obscuring "oh god, they murdered millions of people in cold blood" with "haha look at how wacky this crazy nazi is! what a fun guy!". What you say about the Streisand effect is absolutely true though, as I have personally seen opportunist far-right demagogues capitalize on its effects.
