You can’t have a good war movie that’s also a parody, because people just take the cool/funny parts as approval of the atrocities.
And nothing is safe. You’ll have sitting American Congressmen putting out hacked up Attack on Titan videos with zero context, because David v Goliath is just a cool image and you want to make teenager shock troops fighting hideous (((monsters))) on top of a big wall look Based.
Your enemy is always an existential threat and doing war crimes is incredibly cool. So yay fascism!
Conservatives love pastiche. So they can just take shit at face value and have a great time.
No introspection, because that would ruin the fun.
