Fascism is impossible to satirize I think. There is no satire of fascism you could possibly construct that won't have a large subset of the fascists miss the point entirely and unironically endorse the satirical fascism. There were MAGA chuds who didn't realize Homelander was supposed to be the villain of The Boys into like,,,, season 3 or 4๐.
The mistake people make when they try to satirize fascism is that they assume fascists say words to mean things, but they don't. They use words the a feral dog uses urine, to mark their territory and intimidate others. There is no internal comprehension or consideration of their words when they talk about their politics, it's just a stupid, mindless animal making stupid, mindless animal noises.
