"You still think swastikas look cool
The real Nazis run your schools
They're coaches, businessmen and cops
In a real fourth Reich you'll be the first to go"
I had a friend who enjoyed The Colbert Report, apparently unironically, since he was part of the movement being parodied.
What did he think the studio audience was laughing at, then?
"They're laughing with me! Right, guys? ...Right??"
Dev: "Maybe genocide of other species for a fascist government is bad."
G*mer: "REEEEE WOKE"
EDIT: Also what the fuck is that thumbnail.
Commented on a HD2 meme posted outside the community that it's kinda weird and sketchy to carry on the fascism roleplay outside the game space. Got a lot of replies more or less saying "Everyone knows it's just a game!" π
Clearly everyone doesnβt know itβs βjust a gameβ because we have the asshat in the OP making his dog whistle videos.
Yup. No one in that thread seemed to want to acknowledge that.
That's how these assholes propagate. "It's just a joke, it's just a gag" is a classic camouflage. There are lots of these guys that are trying to live their lives as a kind of extended andy kaufman style seven layers deep bit, just so they can try to expose more people. Actual satire gives them the perfect cover and inoculation point for exposure, because then they can claim that it's just a joke and it's all done in good fun, and that you're being too sensitive and have no sense of humor when they start "jokingly" comparing the bugs to whatever real life minority they legitimately want eradicated.
Reminds me of when right wingers took the Colbert Report seriously...

"The SAD truth."
Sad for who? These thick cunts who are so easily manipulated that they can't even spot when they are having the piss taken out of them unless someone sends them a YouTube video that spells it out? Yeah, I suppose that is quite sad.
Sounds like those fascists need some freedom and democracy! Where are those ne'er-do-wells? I would like to liberate them.
Why use a picture of a character from an entirely different game? That lady is from Dead Rising...
