13. I agree, and have a similar view about the way George Lucas sent Nazi imagery into a space future
Along with Vader's Nazi helmet. He also had Solo's Millennium Falcon setup with a WWII bomber style gun turret that behaved like a mechanism of that time but that's Hollywood, where imagery is massaged *all* the time


So by using Nazi refs here, and while the mindset of Nazism never seems that far away; Fascism, which flys no flag, loves it when the charge against their corrosion is lead from another point in time. Where they are able to dismiss it as hyperbolic, and, well...behind the times. The faces & mindsets of elitist, white-wing supremacy, war profiteering & corporate neo-con fascism are here today and yes - in need of an image update
