As for those carriers, I suppose you don't realize it but they were part of our Arsenal of Democracy so yeah they actually are "Democracy carriers"
They were built for a political ideology, most of them. But they were not owned by that political ideology. They were owned by Germany. That makes them German subs.

I have never heard the term "Democracy Carriers", nor do I think if it was used as freely as "Nazi" would it be that much of an insult, other than the irony it carries in the name. Plus many democratic countries could have democracy carriers.
