I'm not sure if this is the correct board, but /pol/ (which I thought to be the appropriate board for this question) proved itself incapable of answering this question.
What did the Nazis think of him? I've been wondering this for a solid while now - did the Christian Nazis view (presumably) Ramses II as a villain like the bible paints him? Or as a hero, for enslaving the Jews and opposing their strive at every turn?

They didn't think of them

The National Socialists knew the Hebrew Bible was nonsense and their brand of Christianity (called "positive Christianity") didn't include it.

Ramses II was likely not the pharaoh of exodus. also the narrative of exodus is euphemistic and to take it literally you have to be a brain damaged to take everything so literally.
but honestly they probably didn't think of him, or mention it in the case it might inspire some sense of morality towards jews or something. or invoked "the pharaoh" in some sense of rally, who the fuck knows but they may have just skipped over the trouble it brought.
