Transcript:

Scene: Hitler in his art studio admiring his painting.

Hitler: Sehr gut.

Liberal: I'm a time traveler from the year 2025. And I've come here to kill you, Hitler.

Hitler: Oh, not again. I'm never gonna have enough time to finish these paintings with all of these time travelers trying to kill me.

Liberal: Well, I'm going to succeed.

Hitler: Before you pull the trigger, can I just ask why? Why do all of you people want to kill me?

Liberal: Oh, isn't it obvious? I'm a progressive, a liberal, a fighter for social justice. And you are a fascist who implemented a reign of terror. And while the effects of your policies devastated the world for decades, soon we will be able to take back the White House, and we will be able to use the government to follow our great ideas.

Hitler: You want to use government power to force your ideas on the populace? Me too! That's fantastisch.

Liberal: What? No, no. You and I have nothing in common. What I'm saying is, there are people in our time with dangerous ideas, and we need to silence them.

Hitler: Silencing those who disagree with you. I do that too! Oh, wunderbar. It's the Nazi movement. Will not die.

Liberal: Don't give me that. I'm enlightened. And you're as bad as, well, as Hitler. Listen,what I'm trying to say is, we are very close to implementing a utopia. As long as we can get rid of some certain undesirable people groups.

Hitler: Yes, like the Jews?

Liberal: Yes, like the Jews!

Hitler: So in the future. ... You also do not like the Jews?

Liberal: Well, no. But we don't believe in segregating all the races like you do. I mean except for, like graduation ceremonies, and dorms, and hiring practices. Oh, and admission polices. That sort of thing.

Hitler: I, too, am a fan of the segregation. I'm sorry, I have to ask. Is that a real firearm, or is this some kind of toy, for kinder.

Liberal: It's a flare gun. I'm trying not to support America's toxic gun culture. I'm a firm believer in gun control.

Hitler: Gun control? That was one of my ideas too, and to ban them from the undesirables. Yes, look here. Oh, and your shirt. This is an organization founded by Margaret Sanger.

Liberal: Wait, you know about Margaret Sanger?

Hitler: Ja wohl. Of course. She's such a lovely person.

Liberal: No no no no no no no. She's a fighter for reproductive rights, for women's empowerment, and ...

Hitler: ... the eradication of undesirable populations by means of eugenics. Brilliant lady. Very inspiring. I must use some of her ideas in our socialized healthcare system.

Liberal: Socialized healthcare? That's not your thing. That's ... that's our thing.

Hitler: Oh no, it's very much my thing. Did you know that Nazi means National Socialist Workers Party? Nazi is just more catchty. Nazi, Nazi, Nazi -- rolls of the tongue.

Liberal: Oh, this can't be true. This has to be some sort of mistake. We are nothing alike. You're Adolf Hitler, evil right-wing fascist dictator. And I'm a feminist restorative justice advocate and a vegetarian.

Hitler: You're a vegetarian? Me too!

Liberal: I'm so confused right now. I came here with a clear goal in mind: to kill the most evil man that ever lived ... besides Ronald Reagan. But now I'm meeting you in person. You're not at all what I thought you were. And your painting is actually really good. What do you call it?

Hitler: I call it,"ein Reich ohne Juden".

Liberal: Wow. I don't know what that means, but it sounds beautiful.

Hitler: It does, doesn't it!
