@openculture A few months before that Goebbels apparently had the stuffing beat out of him by friends of an actor that he had sent off to a concentration camp.

'Bethesda appears to have deleted... a clip of Indy petting a cat and saying "you don't care much about those fascists, do you?" Given the post's proximity to the fatal shooting of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk on September 10, some online took it to be a reference to the #TurningPointUSA founder"

Bethesda's now-deleted X post appears to have been part of a wider social media push for the new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle DLC.

You say "fascist" to no one in particular, some derp looks up and says "yes" and then somehow you're in trouble for calling him a fascist.

that's not what happened

bethesda had a clip of indiana jones hating fascists. that's what indiana jones does

*someone else* said that was an attack on charlie kirk

it's like me saying "i hate whoever took my lunch in the refrigerator"

and you going "why do you hate me?"

i didn't know you took it. i didn't say i hate you. but by your reply, you reveal something

@benroyce @Maxfieldripken @stacey_campbell @openculture Ah, I had misread that part in the article. My bad.
@Maxfieldripken @stacey_campbell @openculture And you don't have to fight them on top of a tank, fighting them on the ground works too.
