hi jeremy, i think we have different perspectives on this video. you argue that the form/genre of this video is interesting. but this form/genre is not specific for the internet, so in my view the form/genre does not have a particular interest for internet research. i more argue that what is interesting for internet researchers is the content because it is about internet politics. and at the content level the hitler-analogy is misplaced. it depends on how you "read" this text. personally i am interested in how internet politics is displayed in popular media at the content level. the form intracts here with the content level, but we cannot ignore discussing the viability of the content level. in any case, i appreciate that you brought up an interesting topic, althoug we view this from completely different angles. probably another influence here is that my cultural background is the german-speaking world, so i tend to view all media content related to the nazis with great care. these are important topics, and your cultural background plays an important part in how you read such media texts. best, christian
