It's not about projecting. It's more of a "no shit, what do you expect" kind of thing. Obviously not every member of the Nazi Party was evil, obviously not every German soldier during WWII was an evil bastard who supported genocide.
But what do we gain from pointing out the obvious? It just serves to take away from the very real issues that Nazism presents. You think you're having a nuanced discussion but really you're just coming off as an edgy teen who's trying to one-up their parents because of a technicality.

Because I was accused of defending them, so I brought up the two prior topics I thought that may have triggered such a response. The topic it stemmed from was about a recent super old nazi war criminal and some people presenting the idea that there was literally no way to have for literally anyone fought under Germany while remaining a good person, not even threats or outside duress. That may be obvious to you, but apparently nobody else in this topic so far agrees with you. I'm not trying to attach a percentage. I'm not trying to say they're good as a whole. I'm just saying that there is literally no way each and every member was evil and giving examples as to how that's the case.
