Narrative
editThe film is a revisionist[6][1] and pro-Adolf Hitler film.[6][2][7] It depicts Hitler as an unfairly maligned hero.[8]
Promotion
editThe film has been commonly promoted by neo-Nazis[6][1] and QAnon conspiracy theorists.[4][9] Perennial Green candidate,[10] Libertarian Party official and Holocaust denier David Croteau has also promoted the film, saying he "spent many hours last week reviewing this very long and detailed portrayal of the modern world wars. I believe we have been lied to, again by traitors in our government."[2]
Prominent Minnesota imam Asad Zaman also promoted the film on social media, which led to criticism of local politicians, among them Tim Walz, who had appeared in public with him. Zaman later deleted the post and distanced himself from it.[11]
