Nazi-Killing Video Game 'Wolfenstein II' Angers Nazis With 'Make America Nazi-Free Again' Slogan
Quote:
It's a hell of a time in America when a video game taking an anti-Nazi stance is considered by some to be too controversial. Yet here we are.

The video game Wolfenstein II, the latest iteration of an exercise in killing virtual Nazis, has angered Nazis with an online presence because it is about... killing Nazis.

A certain subgroup of folks got angry online with the game-maker, Bethesda Softworks, for producing a product that thinks Nazis are bad. Many claimed they weren't angry about the anti-Nazi stance per se, but rather that the game was tapping into liberal anger. Certainly it is political to co-opt President Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan, but Bethesda Softworks is hardly the first one to play with the line made famous by the billionaire Republican.

But in the wake of the deadly Charlottesville, Virginia, rally, where Nazis marched and chanted anti-Semitic slogans under the banner of "Uniting the Right," Nazism is now apparently a right vs. left debate.

So, people on Twitter got angry about a promo saying Nazis were bad.



:bathtub40lol:

that's some good stuff.  What do you guys think?
did anyone else play wolfenstein back in the days?

it's better if they contain their indignant sentiments and bottle it up.

(still, the satire, LOL. do they not understand the game's theme?)

So in other words the game developers made a political statement that basically conflated trump supporters with Nazis and it pissed some people off. Some of which were possibly either shills or trolls pretending to be Nazis and stirring the pot. Some were possibly actually nazis pussy aching.

And admitted by the article itself (despite what the inflammatory click bait title infers) the majority were trump supporters that didn't appreciate being conflated with Nazis. The Nazis in the game are the enemy who you kill, so in a way it's like machine gunning trump supporters in effigy.

I myself am not a trump supporter and I do not consider myself pro Republican or pro Democrat for that matter. Just throwing that out there before someone inevitably attacks me for a political stance I don't hold.

I find it annoying any time politics needlessly gets thrown in to something in an overt way. I think that's probably what the upset is really about in this story. But that's not an interesting enough story/explanation...

You know what I find funny as fuck about all of this. How many decades have Republicans and right wingers been running around, angry, hateful, and war-hungry? Attacking gays, attacking muslims, attacking anyone and everyone who didn't line up with their bullshit 100%... and now they have a problem when lefties have fucking had it. The left in America is pissed. Pissed that the popular vote is meaningless, because left-wing politics are more popular. Pissed that the DNC fucked Bernie Sanders. Pissed that we have an authoritarian fascist cunt in the whitehouse.

It's about time right wing America got called on their horse shit. We're comin for ya.

So all republicans and right wingers are all grouped together by the left as nazis? Sounds about right. I've also seen you speak out plenty in the past against the cluster fuck that is Islam in the West.

Again with the nazi nonsense. There are no nazis today people, they all died. If I put on a gladiator costume am I a roman gladiator? No, I'm a silly wannabe same as a kid who puts on a werewolf costume but does not become a werewolf.

The left is so easily trolled that it becomes irresistible for kids and bored people to troll them by using the symbols or just doing the salute. They get their kicks by seeing morons go into spastic fits screaming and ranting. Unless antifa has them outnumbered a lot they will not attack so its safe fun.

Implying that trump supporters are nazis or zombies or whatever fits the lib agenda of calling names.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835)

No no no, The Ecstatic. You're either a Turbin-wearing, goat fucking Muslim, or a Nazi. There is no inbetween.

zombie is very popular right now. it archetypally explains alot of the push from the media and how they operate on people's sensibilities.

basically create a virulent monster horde that stems from a lack in the human condition, and paint the "enemy" in such a light so that it's justified to "take 'em out"- this is being used in all realms of the political spectrum. also popular in entertainment, for obvious reasons.
