Oh the memories are kept alive but they are not celebrated. Mostly (I think) because there is a great fear the wrong type of people (aka Neo Nazis) could use the remembrance to celebrate the wrong “heroes”. It’s a rather sharp dual edged sword. (Similar to talking about cruel colonization methods of other countries or civil wars).

It’s not easy being politically correct if everything you do can be interpreted as wrong.
