I sincerely don't think Casper ever got the joke or understood the point of the movie. He did several sequels and seems thrilled about playing Johnny to this day. basically perfect casting.

I met Casper once at a convention and he very much knows what the films are about. Dude gets to participate in media critical of fascism and have fun doing it, nothing wrong with that.

Oh that's good to hear. I'm glad I was wrong.

I think that's just because he likes the work. In the director's commentary he talks a bit about the themes and seems to know what was going on.

Appreciate the candour and humbleness you exhibit, definitely a model to emulate

I had to work on being able to be wrong, and it's still a daily struggle. It's worth it, though. I think, or i hope, it helps me avoid things like retrenching my beliefs when confronted with evidence that contradicts my beliefs.
