Many cultures have decades of pop-culture anti-nazi media. What are some of your favorite video games, movies, music, tv shows, books, and other media that are anti-nazi?

Iโ€™ve watched anti-Nazi TV, read anti-Nazi books and sung along to anti-Nazi songs. But I think my all-time favourite has to be Surf Nazis Must Die.

Which anti-nazi books would you recommend?

They were WWII novels, so nothing scholarly.

I wanna say The Producers. So many works trying to demonise Nazis falls into the trap that demons are kinda cool, but Springtime for Hitler is so ridiculous that no matter how pro-Nazi the lyrics are, you can only laugh at them. And watching Hitler throw it back is just peak theatre.

And remember: They were trying to make a flop by making it about Hitler, yet it became a hit. In a way, it kind of parallels reality.

Hard to beat the Wolfenstein games and the Indiana Jones movies.

Those were two of the first ones I thought of too. I love The Last Crusade.

Not exactly Nazis (in a strict aesthetic point of view; ideologically no different), but Iโ€™ve been having fun seeking out Klansmen in RDR2 and disrupting their gatherings.

Also, that racist in Blackwater. Tying him up, dragging him behind you on your horse to the police station, and just killing him there. Over and over again.

That was one thing I always did too! Been thinking about replaying that one. The violence in that game was a bit hard for me to deal with in a lot of cases, but I never had any personal conflicts deciding how to deal with klansmen.

I donโ€™t like Micah or Strauss, personally. Most of the other fights you have in the game are against racists, rapists or criminal underlords. But those two have missions where youโ€™re killing or beating up regular townspeople because Micah is a psychopath and Strauss is a heartless loan shark. Iโ€™ve yet to finish the story mode, but Iโ€™ve been wanting to put a bullet in Micah since I had to break him out of jail in Strawberry. Already kicked Strauss out of camp and that felt really good.

I seriously sat there in Strawberry thinking โ€œI canโ€™t believe Iโ€™m breaking this guy out. Iโ€™d rather just let him die.โ€ I think I restarted that mission several times looking for an alternate story.
