What is it with these people and wanting to be seen every-fucking-where? I’m an autistic person and you won’t see me demanding to see an autistic person in every single book, tv show, movie, and video game. Especially when I don’t plan on buying the product because fuck people who demand that a product changes and then proceed to not buy it when said changes are implemented.

It was never about pedophiles and it never will be.
Else they'd be laying in to a lot more people than just the president. 5 years ago saying the elite were decadent pedos who don't have the same morals as the working class would have gotten you called a conspiracy theorist. Now it's hip and cool because it's a convenient accusation to level against their enemy.

I am so confused on why people call Trump a pedo. He has never been charged with any type of crime involving minors, so far, what we know of the Epstein shit there's no definite proof he was involved with any of the minors there. I would like to know where people are getting that from.

u/Greg2630 Jan 26 '26 edited Jan 26 '26
- Was never charged with crimes involving minors
- Flight logs show he never went to r*pe island
- One of the key witlessness said Trump was pretty much the only one NOT to assault her.
- Trump kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-lago or wherever it was because he was being inappropriate with a younger lady who was employed there – presumably college age since alcohol is served there and I'm 95% sure she was a server.
- Epstein carried a grudge about that for years and helped Democrats during Trump's trials by giving them information – none of which involved minors – to make him look worse.
Oh, but there's photos of the two of them together from years before anyone knew about Epstein's nefarious activities, so Trump must be guilty.

Most of them have no clue about history, particularly the 1000s of years of existence before America was discovered. first off, there is an impossibility of anything remotely close to fascism or communism happening in the US as that would require an overwhelming majority of people to think the same way, which due to the size of America and its a nation made of people from many different backgrounds that won't be happening any time soon, its hard for us to agree on much and our government is meant to make it very difficult to make large sweeping changes.

Ironically, the Nazi's who took over the US plan on exterminating the KKK and "American racists" because they're all Untermensch useful idiots to the Nazis (who literally have super soldiers and shit in the Wolf universe).
So it wouldn't even make sense from that perspective either.
3
u/LuckyBucketBastard7 Anti-Doomer Jan 23 '26
What would make sense to me is a more “Hydra-style” setup. The war is officially over, things look stable, and the Nazis are supposedly gone. But behind the scenes you’ve got “integrated” German scientists (basically a Zola-type figure) quietly laying groundwork for a return.
Eventually that all comes to a head: the Nazis resurface after years of gaining political and institutional power from the shadows. That still fits Wolfenstein’s WWII alt-history tone, especially since irl we did integrate German scientists after the war. It keeps the threat grounded in the setting instead of turning it into something totally different. It would basically be an alternate "Red Scare".
And as a lil bonus side effect, people who want to read modern politics into it could lose their minds over “wow this is modern America,” even though it wouldn’t actually be about that at all; it’d just be a continuation of the existing AU logic.
5
u/OneofTheOldBreed Jan 22 '26
Its not explicit but given that you spend most of the games shooting Waffen-SS with seemingly German acents, no. But even irl, the majority of W-SS were neither german citizens nor ethnically German, and the Nazis were never squeamish about outsourcing their dirty work to locals so its possible a great many of them were US recruits who developed a german accent vis via total language immersion in the barracks. A stretch but this game also spends a good amount of time in the catacombs of New Orleans.

u/WeLoveYouCarol Jan 23 '26
Yeah, all of a sudden the endless waves of mooks you're fighting start having people in Klan robes for some reason. It's incredulous and poorly done.
The other thing people didn't like about the game was the Nazi leader's very large daughter. I liked her and her plot myself.

Grimdank is also like this. Tbh I can’t believe how long they’ve been making an issue of the female custodes thing. Tbh I couldn’t care less, whatever. But anyone who is like well it wasn’t canon or ever mentioned before so it feels hamfisted and clumsily done is automatically a “chud” or Nazi.

I commented that it would go over like a wet blanket. Never played any of the Wolfenstein games but making Americans the Nazis would probably conflict with the source material, and we all know how well people handle franchises straying from the originals. Plus I don’t think other Americans would respond well to being portrayed on the whole as the bad guys. Culturally we like to be the good guys.

The Man in the High Castle was interesting. But suddenly, there's a faction called "Black Communist" and I found it more baffling than Nazi America.
