Comparisons with Hitler distort the discussion. Either those headlines were written by people who watched the documentary without foreknowledge of fandom culture (who Kage is, etc.), or they are unaware of Godwin's Law:

"As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1", at which point the reductio ad absurdum / ad Hitlerum actually discourages real discussion.

General media, man, they wouldn't get it right even if they had it in front of their faces.
