There was a time when "Whites only" was widely available too.
I get the intent of your objection. But there still is a huge difference between book burning/banning and stopping incitement to violence.
Regulations are not bans.
This isn't intended to silence free speech in as much as it is intended to stop a copy cat. And again, is also why Holocaust denial in Germany is illegal. Just like in America you could not today, get away with printing post cards of lynchings, which we once did, with the intent of advocating lynchings. But just like the Holocaust Museum has Nazis on display, the Museum isn't claiming Nazis are good. But it it is still reasonable today, be it the KKK or Nazis to sue or charge groups for advocating violence.
The manifesto was not intended as a writing of a historian saying, "This happened and it was bad". The intent of the manifesto was just like Mein Kampf. The event is on record, so it will not be forgotten. But it should not be marketed as a lagit form of protest or dissent.
It is the same reason it is illegal to print en mass bomb making material or print ways to poison others.
