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.

    Name a piece of popular genre fiction that isn't Star Trek and couldn't be taken as fascist

        I said popular genre fiction not some game from 2017 that I had to google. If your parents don't know what it is it doesn't count.

            Cause it's easy enough to cherry pick obscure stuff and I'm making the point that pretty much all mainstream media has fascist undertones at the least. Attacking actually good satire that could also work on our side our is at least entertainment meant for us cause we got it as intended isn't worth it and speaks to a puritanical view on art in general that I've seen where everything is only interpreted as didactic.
