Agent Galahad (Kingsman): In one of the best action scenes ever, super spy Galahad kills a church full of homophobic & racist religious extremists.

GI robot (Creature Commandos): A robot designed to kill nazis in WW2 murders a gathering of neo-nazis after seeing the flag

B.J Blazkowicz (Wolfenstein): Protagonist of the Wolfenstein shooter games, where you play as someone who shoots down a bunch of Nazis in an alternate timeline where the Axis Powers have access to sci-fi and supernatural technology.

Captain America (Captain America: The First Avenger): there's a brief montage in the first Cap film of him & the Howling Commandos on the warpath

OP, did you mean to make this community where only you can post?

I've also federated your community out so all instances can see it, and you might consider posting to !communitypromo@lemmy.ca and/or !newcommunities@lemmy.world

I'm on piefed.social, there's still no option to post here, though lemmy.world does show that option now.

Edit: Even more curiously, post creation is possible from piefed on !topcharacterdesigns@lemmy.world , which was created by the same user

I will bring this to rimu's attention. Sounds like a bug.

It could take up to 24 hours to pick up that change.

Title reads that the main character is a Nazi...

amended, thanks for pointing that out
