this post feels pro-nazi in a way that discomforts me
My apologies, I truly didn't mean anything along those lines. It is an important feature of the musical, but that's hard to describe in a four panel Yu-Gi-Oh meme. If that's the consensus though, I'm happy to remove.
to me the flow of “anti-nazi org says no -> i found a loophole -> anti nazi org is shocked and defeated” feels uncomfortable to me. it’s not the subject matter or your point, but presented in this yugioh format it feels like it’s leaning on the wrong side to me.
To me it felt more like
Modern anti Nazi place says "No, we don't want to be associated with that."
Director says "You have a history of it, we'll show you guys welcoming them instead."
Modern anti Nazi place says "Fine just don't show that footage of us happily welcoming them"
I don't think it's pro nazi, why do you say that?
It's just a possible implication for insisting on using Nazi iconography. Doesn't have to be true, it's just a natural implication with insistance. After all, a kid wouldn't insist on McD's unless they actually liked it. Yes, not necessarily applicable to art, but we're talking implications, not statements of fact!
That's really stupid logic.
