@@webkid4567 Tbf, that was already standard comedic fare, in the US and in Europe. Hogan's Heroes tv series was already a few years old ('65), for instance, and the stage musical Cabaret ('66), but Britain was well into satirizing Hitler since early in the war. What's rather more telling is that we suddenly find ourselves in a state of affairs that accepts this as hard to comprehend. Satire of any and all public persona and/or issues is normal, whereas the current increasing suppression of such satire is what is Not normal, and which is quite troubling, tstl.

Brooks didn't start making real money until he started doing films with a lot of R-rated toilet humor and T and A humor, which by the time the 1970's rolled around was hard to lose money on.
