Many cultures have decades of pop-culture anti-nazi media. What are some of your favorite video games, movies, music, tv shows, books, and other media that are anti-nazi?
Iron Sky is ridiculous and good for a laugh if you need a break from the real Nazis.
Wolfenstein, the orginal.
Now do you mean the actual original, or do you mean Wolfenstein 3D?
And Doom2
The Saboteur. A somewhat forgotten but excellent game from the PS3/X360 era, still available on Steam I think.
You play an Irishman in Paris punching nazis and blowing up their shit. The world is black & white and becomes colorful as you capture things.
The racing part sucks, but otherwise the concept and style was just a ton of fun. It had memorable and unique sights and sounds and was just overall a satisfying play.
A great movie called “Look who’s back” goes into the danger of letting Nazism flourish. In this world Hitler shoots himself at the end of ww2 and then magicaly wakes up in modern times. So he goes back to his old shenanigans and people think it’s satire.
I didn’t realize while watching it that it’s kinda shot Borat-style and some of the reactions from people are genuine.
Anyone mentioned “Allo allo!” already?
Many Italian songs, especially Modena City Ramblers
Propagandhi - The Only Good Fascist Is a Very Dead Fascist. Especially the line “You can wear my nuts on Your nazi chin”.
I hereby define the Bren Gun as a type of media. Traditionally very anti-nazi.
I’d add the Sten Mk II S. :)
“AHHH-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!”
Not exactly Nazis (in a strict aesthetic point of view; ideologically no different), but I’ve been having fun seeking out Klansmen in RDR2 and disrupting their gatherings.
That was one thing I always did too! Been thinking about replaying that one. The violence in that game was a bit hard for me to deal with in a lot of cases, but I never had any personal conflicts deciding how to deal with klansmen.
I don’t like Micah or Strauss, personally. Most of the other fights you have in the game are against racists, rapists or criminal underlords. But those two have missions where you’re killing or beating up regular townspeople because Micah is a psychopath and Strauss is a heartless loan shark. I’ve yet to finish the story mode, but I’ve been wanting to put a bullet in Micah since I had to break him out of jail in Strawberry. Already kicked Strauss out of camp and that felt really good.
I seriously sat there in Strawberry thinking “I can’t believe I’m breaking this guy out. I’d rather just let him die.” I think I restarted that mission several times looking for an alternate story.
I wanna say The Producers. So many works trying to demonise Nazis falls into the trap that demons are kinda cool, but Springtime for Hitler is so ridiculous that no matter how pro-Nazi the lyrics are, you can only laugh at them. And watching Hitler throw it back is just peak theatre.
And remember: They were trying to make a flop by making it about Hitler, yet it became a hit. In a way, it kind of parallels reality.
Hard to beat the Wolfenstein games and the Indiana Jones movies.
Indy is all about showing us how to properly handle Nazis.
Straight up, Wolf3D and Fate of Atlantis gang stand up
Those were two of the first ones I thought of too. I love The Last Crusade.

During all this Elon Musk BS I suddenly wanted to watch Kung Fury.
