    Tacky as hell

    At least Nazi Germany hired actual artists and designers to create stunning and awe inspiring designs and artwork using quality materials (and no I am not glorifying those monsters)

    MAGA just go to the local print shop and skim off any premade imagery and use AI to mash it all together on the cheapest poster they can buy.

      You don’t have to glorify their beliefs to admit they were fantastic at propaganda and aesthetics. Birth of a Nation was used in film schools for decades afterward for a reason and that reason wasn’t that film schools were all secretly run by Nazis.

        Can you provide some info about what film you mean? I only see results for the 1915 American film called Birth of a Nation. Which sounds pretty awful, but seems to predate Nazis.

          Sorry, got my racist propaganda films that still show up in film school because they used revolutionary techniques in film making and are thus important pieces of cinematic history mixed up. The Birth of a Nation is the US one, Triumph of the Will is the Nazi one I was thinking of.

        More likely the film schools were run by jews considering the movie industry

      First time as tragedy, second time as farce.
