“It is violent enough to make you shudder and close enough to fascist art to make your skin crawl. It celebrates all the things the Fuehrer loved […] and all as it purports to be a movie about freedom.” — Paul Byrnes invokes Godwin’s Law on “300”. Hmm.

To respond to it ad hominem suggests that Byrnes is in deep denial about [western] society’s dependence upon military strength.
