Bayer Leverkusen is seen in Germany as a plastic club by a lot of fans, mostly because they have distanced themselves from their working class roots.

No, they are seen as bad for the Bundesliga because they undermine 50+1 by being a works team for Bayer.

The Team existed as Bayer Leverkusen 100 years before 50+1 was a thing.

So what? It's still a special exemption from the law, being grandfathered in doesn't change that. "Technically, it's legal" won't win you any sympathy points.
