There's the occasional Dick Dastardly-esque outburst of "the Jews want to rule the world", but this only serves to reinforce the absurdity of the central character's antics and unfounded paranoia.<br /><br />As a proud Zionist and supporter of the Jewish people worldwide, I honestly believe that we have nothing to fear from the strip, and only from people hijacking it for nefarious reasons. Much the same could be said of other media. <br /><br />Thanks again for your efforts!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541537715440752.post-79310264198241343732011-06-07T21:42:12.196+10:002011-06-07T21:42:12.196+10:00Thanks very much for the additional, pertinent inf...Thanks very much for the additional, pertinent info - and the compliment!Daphne Ansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297188759548931101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541537715440752.post-7308343880037699742011-06-07T19:52:26.897+10:002011-06-07T19:52:26.897+10:00The Hipster Hitler webcomic is hilarious, and inva...The Hipster Hitler webcomic is hilarious, and invariably mocks the Nazi dictator by giving him a arrogant and narcissistic Hipster persona whilst placing it in 1920-45 context.*<br /><br />However, it's a real concern that the T-Shirts (though admittedly I would never buy one) have been adopted by Neo-Nazis and white supremacists. This, I'm sure, was not the comic creators' intent or reflective of their own beliefs.<br /><br />PS: Great job on the blog, I check it daily. <br /><br />*Hipter Hitler refuses to invade Switzerland owing to the mountainous terrain being unsuitable for his fashionable fixed-gear bike.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
