We just have to convert the horrors of humanity to simplistic pop-culture references.

Even if they aren't 1:1, they may stand a better chance of retaliation by the populace.

  • Kristallnacht: "...what?"
  • The Purge: "Oh, we ain't havin' none of that shit."

Depressing, concerning, and even infuriating... but pragmatic.

Edit: grammar
