Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
You're correct. I remembered incorrectly.
Fascists can't understand most satire and mockery of their beliefs unless the satire offends their sensibilities. Most fascists are naive children who are all about aesthetics. So long as the satirical fascists look cool or seem dangerous, they'll use the iconography unironically.
It's why Republicans use "Born in the USA" or "Fortunate Son" at their conventions to represent patriotism, despite those songs being scathing criticisms of America. The songs sound uplifting to contrast the dark lyrics, making them great works of art. However, Republicans are the sort of people Curt Cobain sings about in the song "In Bloom." They barely ever dig beyond the surface layer. It's almost required to unironically hold their worldview.
To be fair, it's one of the trivia points on the entry for The Wall in IMDB that Roger hired actual neo-nazis, so it's certainly a rumor that's getting about.
He recently got flack for the fascist sequence of The Wall ( The Show Must Go On; In the Flesh; Run Like Hell; Waiting for the Worms, Stop ) And wearing the usual militant trenchcoat costume during concerts. He went on a news show to plead his case and cried about the battle of Anzio.
It spooks me how much the communal recollection of history can change with time.
