I'm the opposite, "Nazis" seem to have turned into saturday morning cartoon villains, who sneeringly laugh as they plan to destroy the world, and one-off aberations that can never happen again rather than rather fairly standard fascists who got a whole bunch of people killed in the usual way that fascists do.
But I am reading "It Can't Happen Here" right now, so maybe I'm biased by that. It's certainly confusing reading a book written in 1935 that talks about the Nazis without full knowledge of what was to follow and think "this could be taken straight from today" as well as realising that it wasn't even extreme satire at the time, but rather mostly based on Huey Long and other real figures.

Wow, reading that wikipedia article I'm amazed to find out the sci-fi television series V started out as an adaptation of It Can't Happen Here.
Mind. Blown.
