The only movies that portrayed Nazis correctly are the Indiana Jones movies and Come and See. One for portraying the Nazis as a bunch of incompetent buffoons and the other for portraying the Nazis as a bunch of incompetent genocidal buffoons.
This is totally correct and nobody wants to imitate being those nazis as a result.
Verhoeven should have made Doogie Howzer's character into a fucking clown with a superiority complex that does stupid shit on camera while barking about how smart he is. That may have saved us decades of budding nazis getting unintentional inspiration.
That would have definitely gotten the intended message across better and force UKIP to stan a different movie.
Never ever make your enemies look cool.
It keeps happening and I keep hearing how nothing could have been done and there'd be exactly the same responses from the audience no matter what, which sounds like bullshit to me.
