I don't think they were attempting satire in the first place, is what I'm saying. It feels like they were trying to make something believable - if fascism were to coalesce in the post-nuclear world, this is what it might look like, at least that's the impression I got. Caesar liking Roman aesthetics doesn't strike me as any weirder than Hitler being into like runes and shit.

Yeah I agree. Was trying to say that an earnest attempt at portraying fascism is difficult to separate from satire because of how stupid Fascism is irl.
