  • Show me anywhere in the world that has open Nazi units serving in the military.

    Show me anywhere in the world that openly celebrates Nazis as national holidays.

    Show me anywhere in the world that renames streets, shopping malls, stadiums after Nazis.

    Show me anywhere in the world that runs Nazi indoctrination camps for children.

    I can show you all of these for Ukraine.

    Over to you. Darling.

  • Ukraine has a serious Nazi problem. You're going to have to grow up and learn to deal with the real world.

  • Yeah that is a surprise. I guess there's going to be a lot of libs around for the coming period. We'll have to just bear through it.

  • The extreme Sinophobic tropes and clichés that were clearly inserted into the redditbrain by American propagandists.

  • BUT AT WHAT COST!?!? ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

  • Aha! I never read the book and assumed this applied to it too.

    Definitely is a weird feature of the movie interpretations. Wildly different takes and a blind spot for the satire.

  • The wording could be better, it's meant that they're not liable for hiring kids since they can say that they didn't know, are not responsible for knowing.

  • I watched this in the cinema with about 5 or 6 friends when it came out. All of them thought it was terrible because it was "praising of militarism" or something. None of them got the satire dripping from every frame. I was dumbfounded.

    In later years I found out that this is a phenomenon with not only the movie, but the book too. There's some kind of cognitive disconnect, some inability to see, for what is glaringly obvious to others, the bald fact of the sarcasm and parody of the USA and fascism going on here.

    Look at the top review on goodreads!
