Unfortunately (fortunately?), if the Generational Dynamics theory is correct, we are in fact going to get one of those. It's just a question of how and when.

Certainly his views would be outside the mainstream of the Tea Party in America, but he would still be closer to the Tea Party than to the Communist Party. I think the closest American comparison would be to the "Birther" movement, or the more conservative conspiracy nuts who are always going on about the Bilderbergers or the Trilateral Commission. He's like a radicalized version of them. They're still on the conservative side of the spectrum, but definitely not "one of us".
Whatever his political beliefs, he had clearly lost his grip on reality. His primary sin was believing that the ends justified his vile means, a line of thinking which when carried to its logical conclusion always ends in evil deeds.

The people seeing "coded racism" in innocuous statements by conservatives don't have that excuse. They're just so deeply prejudiced and bigoted against conservatives that they assume conservatives *must* be racist, and go looking for evidence where none exists.
I have much more sympathy for this Von Trier fellow than for the Eberts of this world.

But at the same time, I don't begrudge anyone the right to make such a video, and in fact I would willingly fight a war to protect their right to do so. The issue at hand is not whether people find jokes at the expense of their religion offensive. It's what they do and how they comport themselves when they *are* offended that counts.
