Nietzsche has been accused (wrongly) of being a proto-Nazi, enabling the Nazis with his theories (which were wrongly interpreted by the Nazis via the meddling of Nietzsche's sister Elisabeth). Nietzsche's views on women etc are controversial however, no misinterpretation needed.
Heidegger is a different kettle of fish, albeit still involving a Nazi angle. Heidegger was a Nazi. He had a major hand in ousting several of his Jewish colleagues from the University where he worked, including his own mentor Edmund Husserl. Heidegger said nothing post-war about his Nazi status, much less an apology.

Yes he was not the first to the New World but he was the one that created sustained contact that led to trade and a doubling of carrying capacity of the world. You do not see that again until the the industrial revolution and even then its not tied to one person. Also while he was an ass to the natives much of what people lay before him is tied to other people or pretty much the norm for late medieval Spain.

But Heidegger's girlfriend was Jewish.
