    Hi, yes, it is very definitely intended as ironic, shredding light on the - in my view absurdly - repetitive patterns in history. Based the comments and the upvotes this humor hopefully came through for most readers, but I understand nuance is not always obvious in written text.

    I hope ironic comments like these are not against the rules, but happy to adjust my style/content, if needed. I am a long-time lurker and occasional NCD commenter from the reddit, so I was thinking I have a good grasp on the sub - please let me know if not.

    I also want to clarify that I spent around 5 minutes on the “story” above, by giving ChatGPT some prompts and editing the output to fit what I was trying to achieve with a comment. I am luckily not some basement dwelling teen writing WW2 fanfic for hours every day.

    Thanks for reaching out as a mod, instead of just purging/banning, I appreciate that. Maybe I should have replied to the comment accusing me, but I thought the irony was obvioud and absurd, but maybe not.

    To make it even more clear, in case anybody was doubting: fuck nazis.

      Ok, that’s what I was hoping to hear from you. Post stays, we good. Basement dwellers and WWII obsessors are always welcome here, but fuck time traveling Nazis. “Iron Sky” was fun, but before reading the context you provided, your post gave me da hibbity jibbities. Thank you to all the morons and moronettes who expressed their concerns. Let’s always have a dialogue, not a monologue, this isn’t hexbear, lemmy.ml or lemmygrad. THIS IS NCD. OUT.
