“I pledge allegiance, to the Flag of the Republic of Gilead, and to the Fuhrer, Donald J. Trump JD Vance, for which it stands, one nation, under the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, divided, with liberty and justice for none.”
There’s actually a TV Show where Nazis won WW2 and invaded USA. Man in the High Castle, might be a good time for me to rewatch. Its really interesting to watch, although the final season sucked ass. Better watch it before they ban it lol.
Oh you completely misunderstand the modern fascist playbook. Putin Erdogan Orban or Modi don’t usually ban semi-obscure shows outright. They use their near complete control of all major media to ensure these shows never become a major cultural hit in the first place (by not funding nor platforming them). Cult classics aren’t burned, their meaning is just subverted; Star Wars isn’t a critique of fascism, it was always an allegory for the Righteous Traditionalists (the Jedi) working against The Woke (The Empire). No-one quite knows what Tolkien meant with Isengard, surely no allegory there, but I can tell you The Shire shows how good the tradwife life can be so get back to pumping out kids and churning butter missus!
Slight deviations are tolerated of course. Who cares if the urban elites have some woke media. As long as they keep to themselves, it’s just convenient to keep the intellectuals distracted. Just don’t make the mistake of making a nationwide cultural hit that questions the official narrative a bit too directly, because that’s when you’ll find yourself accidentally defenestrated.

The important thing they do is ensure no one organises against them. The media can be relaxed in that case.
