Donald Trump has retweeted (or whatever the equivalent is on Truth Social... re-truthed?) a video made by a supporter claiming through a mocked-up headline that a Trump win would lead to a "unified reich".

Cool, cool cool cool, not concerning at all.
They're putting the quiet parts through a megaphone now.

Paper Mario is going to put the far right into a very funny dilemma.

In the original version the character of Vivian was a trans woman which was removed in the English release. In other words: Censorship.

In the remake Vivian is a trans woman in all versions. In other words: Trans representation.

So now the far right will have to choice. Will they embrace censorship to keep the trans out? Or will they support the trans to keep the censorship out.

That's not hard, they choose censorship. Censorship is an ethics issue and conservatives don't have those.

1/3 put the Japanese text through Google translate, in as small of chunks as is necessary, change some of the words around, and claim femboy

1/3 whine about how it's not a remake of the English version of the game, thus ruining their childhoods

1/3 just claim Nintendo went woke and are now evil and don't bother with paltry fluff like Evidence

To be fair, I doubt this is deliberate, but rather that they're just that ignorant and careless. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, those that forget the past are doomed to repeat it.

I'm not sure why they bothered deleting it though. The fact that Trump is still remotely electable after all the things he's already said since 2016 suggests that clangers like that are hardly going to do any damage.

Second that. Is anyone remotely surprised at that, or more worried than they were before upon finding out about it?

The easy response here is there is absolutely no way they noticed that "headline" off to the side barely readable when reposting it.

The weirder response is I think the creator was going for the second reich, not the third, as the rest of the fake background headlines are all about WWI

This feels all very internet era, due to be worse with AI: put as much of any old shit out there as possible, screw the QA.

That's pretty feasible, though you have to wonder why a candidate for President is careless enough to accidentally repost a Nazi dogwhistle, or the kind of people he's chummy with online.

You forget things when you get old. You forget to turn the microphone off when taking a piss, you forget to plug the oil port in your head, you forget to not break the law in an attempt to overturn a lawful election....

The easy response here is there is absolutely no way they noticed that "headline" off to the side barely readable when reposting it.
If Trump wasn't on the record with loads of other Nazi references like calling his political opponents "vermin" and accusing immigrants of "poisoning the blood of our country", you MIGHT have a slender leg to stand on.

Gotta love the party of small government...
Small government for THEM, 'cause they're REAL "Murricans. Big government to force the rest of us to live how they say we ought.

Did you know that "the big lie" was coined by Adolf Hitler in Mein Kampf?

Any government doing what you want is small, any government not doing what you want is big

That's why State governments are smaller than city governments sometimes
