Oh, wow, that is older than I thought. Assumed there’d been another new Wolfenstein game and new outrage, I don’t follow gaming news much. Also, it’s a bit alarming that in 2017 we were already seeing Americans stop believing that, y’know, Nazis are bad.
I haven’t really kept up with the Wolfenstein games, but that’s still the most recent one other than a couple of spinoffs in 2019.
That was around the time you started seeing the talking point that ackshually, we need to let the fascists speak because of and even just straight up whitewashing fascism (Richard Spencer on CNN, articles saying the new kind of fascist was far nicer than the old kind, etc.).
Yeah… looking back, we really should have known then that the US was starting down the path to fascism. And us tankies did. But all the liberals, in and out of the US, called us crazy fearmongerers calling anyone we don’t like a Nazi.
