    Reminds me of Mel Brooks’ reaction to criticism of The Producers from fellow Jews.

    “I didn’t think I was sinful in any way,” he says. “I thought it was making a point: You get up on a soapbox and you argue with a Nazi, you’re going to lose. But if you can ridicule him and make people laugh, then you win. It’s as simple as that.”
