I think the people who call Hallmark's mass-produced boilerplate Christmas movies fascist propaganda are onto something.

I live with an elderly person who watches only these movies and cable news, so believe me when I say that they definitely feel like the kind of media that would be on TV if the Nazis had succeeded in WWII

Yes the nazis loved very in-offensive quaint nuclear family landscape settings. Movies that had a “deep message” and “too artsy and abstract” as part of cultural criticism was seen as part of judeo-bolshevism modernism.

I can’t help but wonder, do gamergaters not realize that Adolf Hitler would probably hate most vidya/anime?

Like call me basic but it’s pretty obvious my favorite anime is Dragon Ball. It brings me satisfaction knowing the nazis would hate it.

would the nazis hate dragon ball really? they could easily turn it into blonde hair ubermenschen save the universe with their absolute strength and will to power. "The super saiyan transformation is a metaphor for the transformation of the german society from the alpine races to a pure aryan race"

In the Dragon Ball, the mixed race (human + sayajin) is waaaay stronger than the pure blood, they would definitely argue that Dragon Ball went woke after the Freeza saga.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

Hell, probably they’d call the fact Freiza lost, let alone got hit at all “woke”. Freiza is everything the westerners admire, a mostly white megalomaniac inspired off of real estate investors.

SSG has Goku dye his hair blue to power up to counteract this.

Feels like Hallmark Christmas movies are a dying breed of neoliberal propaganda from the 90's.
