After all these years, Hitler remains a force in popular culture, even for those born since 1945.

It is better to distance oneself from him.

Those who try to mock him, such as Mel Brooks in The Producers do it at their own risk. Brooks pulled it off, but barely.

Hitler and Germany were so effective, that mockery often fails. To mock, you must remember. To remember, horror dominates.

The PawnStars will not trade Nazi items, even though there is money to be made. What other regime has this effect?
