Also, third Reich as farce is way more fun to watch. I bet the death camps are gonna be hilariously stupid. I'll be sure to paint some fun commentary on the walls with my blood.

Would you rather third Reich done by people who halfway know what they're doing? I will take blessings where they are available.

(Not that that makes it safe, people thought the early Nazis were hilarious idiots too. Hitler never got up before noon, Himmler was like the only guy in Germany who wasn't a veteran at that point in history, Goebbels was stumping around on his club foot talking about racial and genetic purity, and so on. As has been discussed, one of their early openly fascist moves was getting rid of a bunch of the hilariously accurate comedy that was constantly being aimed at them by the comedians of the day. They were just kind of weirdo dingbats until they weren't.)
