I don't get that.

I understand (though disagree with) the notion of banning like "hate speech" or propaganda or things actively defending Hitler and Nazi idealogy or promoting his stuff. I see the argument. You don't want that idiocy spread so cut it out of every pore it bursts out of like a puss.

But this is literally comedy taking the piss out of Hitler and the idiots who support Nazis. Banning it just... mildly helps Nazis...

Would be like banning Chicken Run....

Thats odd, because the comedy film Look Whos Back was produced and released in Germany.

Adolf Hitler wakes up to find himself in the 21st century with no memory of anything after 1945. Interpreting modern situations from a Nazi perspective, he happens to find fame and success as a comedian.

Initial release: October 8, 2015 (Germany)
Director: David Wnendt
Budget: 2,956,960; ($3.3 million)
Box office: 25.5 million USD
Nominations: German Film Award for Best Leading Actor, More

Germany has a long history of banning iconography related to the whole Hitler thing.

Italy I assume did it cause it makes Hitler look bad.

That's just Germany's stupid laws.

Reminder that Wolfenstein is made to remove Nazis in the games to be released there.

That was stupid and pointless of them to even bother but at least nothing of value was lost. Those videos where some of the most cringe they've uploaded.

I don't get it either.

Germany tries to bury their past ties to Hitler.
Italy tries to bury their past ties to Mussolini.
Japan tries to bury their past ties to Korean slavery.

In 10 years, we will be doing the same with Trump.
