An interesting side effect of how Hitler and so many of his peers went out is that it permanently tied Naziism to suicide in popular culture.

Just for an example there are two separate indie roguelikes that feature nazi bosses you can goad into offing themselves, mewgenics and brutal orchestra, and in both it feels like such an artistic slam dunk because it ties fascism's inherent self-defeating qualities with the fact that history's most famous fascist literally did go out like that.

Obviously brutal orchestra is a lot more careful with how it discussed the topic but it works out for both.

I don't think so! Disco Elysium's ideologies are genuine masterclasses of design, though. Fun fact, being a communist in that game is *also* a stat debuff, that's not exclusive to fascism.
