For anyone unfamiliar, his sister was a Nazi, and after he died she managed his legacy in the worst possible way.
Nietzche had an interesting relationship to Jews and Judaism, informed over time by his own personal relationships in ways that probably didn't influence his philosophy for the better. Parts of his work is about what he considers to be strong cultures, at which point he praised Judaism for being a particularly strong culture. Later in life he was less positive.
This of course comes on top of his thinking about religion, which is less one-sided than often portrayed: God is dead, we killed him, but importantly that was in all likelihood a huge mistake.
So the Nazi connotations are partly a result of his sister's management of his legacy and unfinished/unpublished works after his death, part how Nazis ended up using his works long after his death.
He ended his life living with his sister in a rather fragile state, with his great writings behind him. Judging him by his death bed would be doing him and his work a great injustice. But even then there's no evidence to indicate he was some sort of proto-Nazi.
Nietzsche's "God is dead" is meant to caution against the supposed "immorality" of atheism, so very much one-sided.
I don't read him as worrying primarily about the immorality. As far as I remember his problem is more that atheism is amoral, if anything. The main concern is the lack of meaning. Humans crave rituals and spirituality. Now that we killed God we have nothing to turn to; how do we bury our dead now that God himself has died.
It's hardly one-sided when you consider what Nietzsche had to say about religion. Take Christianity:
Or more generally:
His father was a pastor whereas he had a profound distaste for the church. Presenting him as a defender of religion is not accurate at all. I guess it's easy to misrepresent him because there are a lot of nuances going on, and his writings also don't always align perfectly.
