Secondly, the demolition of Earth acts like a bigger representation of the issue of having to remove citizens for governmental purposes. Thirdly, one may believe that Zaphod Beeblebrox is a mockery of political leaders today. This is why it is said to be incorrect to be judgmental against these events because it is just an odd representation of us humans. The bureaucratic Vogons are similar to our dictatorships in several ways.

craziness of the story through the dialogue between the characters but also through the visual effects of the movies. During the movie when the vogues destroyed Earth I was waiting for this dramatic moment of explosions, fire, and chaos but none of that happened; it was just gone with a blink of an eye, turned to dust.
