Child soldiers? Live and die for the empire, they’re doing their part :im-doing-my-part:
Needless violence for the sake of violence? Hell yeah brother that’s the good shit :le-pol-face:
it doesn’t work. Anyone with fascist potential will look at whatever “Genocide Bad Guy The Metaphor Is Literally Spelled Out For You Armada” and think they’re fucking sick. You’re giving the fascists material.
IMO, if you really want to satirize fascism, hit them where it hurts: they are fucking incompetent buffoons who act like they’re god’s chosen race because they have no positive qualities besides the promised intrinsic ones.
Mel Brooks had said in interviews that a large part of his humor is based on making Nazis look as foolish as possible.
I doubt it. If The Producers is released today nazis would start unironically singing Springtime for Hitler.
Proof: fascists unironically sing "Tomorrow belongs to me" from Cabaret.
