2PM Smurfs Stalinists and Nazis?

A French novelist and professor of political science in France has written a 177 page analysis of the world of the Smurfs and come to the conclusion that this is a thinly disguised totalitarian society intended to homage Russian communism and anti-Semitism. Papa Smurf looks remarkably like Josef Stalin (and with a red hat, to boot!), while Brainy Smurf is Trotsky. The male-dominated propertyless society is constantly being threatened by the dark-haired, money-grubbing, hook-nosed sorcerer Gargamel, hardly a well-disguised amalgam of every Jewish stereotype. The funny thing about all this analysis is that most people seem to not have understood the author, Antoine Bueno, intended it as a satire. And satire it surely is, but not of the Smurfs. The satire is of all those people who like to fight over the “true and hidden meaning” behind what others simply accept at face value. Since not a single Smurf-watcher ever understood the Smurfs this way, it is irrelevant whether they CAN BE interpreted this way. And if I may be so bold as to speak for him, that was his point, proved all the more by those who are outraged by his pseudo-analysis.
