the thing about fascist pastiche is that you can't do it in a way that real fascists won't gravitate to. fascism is aesthetic, so coopting those aesthetics for pastiche just doesn't work because they are literally too stupid to get that you're mocking them and don't actually care even if they know.

the thing is you have to go meta and make them very aware of how unwelcome they are in your space if you're doing this. You have to loudly throw them out of the bar and put up 'no fascists allowed' sign around your pastiches of fascism, or else you risk it just becoming what it's mocking. there is unfortunately literally no other way to do it. warhammer learned this the hard way.
