Yes I know that fascism measurehead is a playable ideology in Disco Elysium, but presenting fascism as with its integral ugly reality, glaring contradictions, and unsustainable death drive is a pretty leftist (and correct) way of portraying it. de-encyclopedia

        Chuds don’t want fascism ugly in a way that embarrasses them, though.

        They’re literally too stupid to tell though, that’s why they think Judge Dredd, WH40k and Starship Troopers argues in their favor.

          They don’t seem to stan for the nazis in The Producers, or for that matter the bigots in any Mel Brooks style presentation. I also don’t tend to see anyone praise the nazis in Inglorious Basterds.

            They would if the nazis were the main characters; any depiction of fascists as the protagonists, they’ll support, even if the depiction is extreme. This is why they also liked Thanos, who was given a semi-protagonist role/depiction in the first movie.

              Wasn’t Mr. Bean a nazi main character once? I don’t see nazis stanning that portrayal either.

                I don’t believe so - he was a British WWI officer in Blackadder Goes Forth, which might be what you’re thinking of.
