3. Yeah. That was my first thought. Of course there has been some satire in films, but most are documentaries

and they do anything BUT hide the horror, sadism, monstrous nature of the Third Reich. In my lifetime, the question is always HOW could the German people have turned a blind eye--thus leading so many of us to redouble our efforts today when we see ANYTHING similar. Those few mocking satires in film are a coping mechanism for society at large, but it is against the enormous decades of truthful films and documentaries. The fear today is that at least one generation may not be seeing those films and documentaries, leaving them susceptible to the horrific lies on the web from those who intend to manipulate them. But normalization? Only by these horrific pro-Nazi factions that seek to do so for their own aims.
