Why did American newspapers call the Japanese the Japanese, the Italians the Italians, but always referred to Germans as Nazis?

Dehuminisation.

Because a lot of Americans are of German decent.

Kerch and Nazis in the same sentence will always trigger me. Back in the day I played a lot of Il-2 Sturmovik but I didn't realise it had a fast forward feature so I genuinely used to fly 2 hour sorties in a He-111 to bomb the East Crimean peninsula. For about 20 minutes of that time you were actually having to fend off fighters or do the actual bombing, the rest was just flying in a straight line. Realistic yeah but not fun

They put the japs in camps. Calling germans nazis was the least they could do during a world war.
Michael Adams
Jews. Kill them all.

The Nazis were National Socialists. What would you call the Japanese or Italians? You could call the Italians Fascists I suppose but that isn't as clear.
Carson James
Sometimes they reported positively about them.

Spain and Germany were Fascist too. Specifying the nation important. I think using the term Nazi instead of German is a good thing because it implies not all Germans are responsible.
Jaxon Gray
Why not go just by the name of the party?
National Socialists/Nazis (Germany)
Fascists (Italy)
Falangists (Spain)
Japan is a little bit more difficult (Imperial Rule Assistance Association) but something could be worked out
It's not like all the Italians and Japs were with the government, either

Because it wasn't just the germans. All of europe came toghether under the banner of nazism, to live in peace and harmony and exterminate the jews.
