You know who else murdered millions of people and went on to provide material for goofy YouTube mashups? That’s right . . . . HITLER!

The Notorious B.I.G./Triumph of the Will one is a double, though.

Godwin'd the front page. Nice.

Would it be un-MetaFiltery of me to point out that, besides the doubled B.I.G. video, the final three kinda sucked?

I didn't think so.

The word you're looking for is doppelgänger.

Could someone please tell me where the whole "godwin" nazi thing came from? 'Cuz I missed the origins of that and am out of the loop.

The interesting thing about that is that it made me realize that there's a good way to do this and a bad way. Which is fucking strange if you think about it.

Oh, how cute! I can't wait until my son gets into this stuff. Hitler and Nazis weren't a bunch of murderous criminals. They're just grist for the YouTube mill.

Seriously, the parallels between fascism and pop culture (crowds of people gathered in an arena watching the gesticulations of a superman) are pretty apparent in the weak collection of links in this truly barftacular FPP.
