Gamers could excuse a genocide, dismantling of government departments, racism, deportations of legal residents to El Salvadoran concentration camps but draw the line at not getting their treats in a timely fashion can-excuse-1

It's just further proof people don't give a shit about things that don't affect them directly, the ubiquitous propaganda machine can easily manipulate those opinions.

But once you start to actually take shit away from people, that's when they're gonna start to get mad.

The Protracted Treatler's War against the KKKapitalists on behalf of the Capitalists began with earnest on 6th April 2025. What followed was 5 long years of video-game themed terror bombings of US Government buildings and a declaration of martial law on the third year of fighting.

Martial Law was declared after the bombing of the White House with a tacky, RGB Gamer themed DIY drone carrying a tactical nuclear warhead, which was stolen in 2027 from a secure facility.

I'm hoping this new Gameboy thing is the catalyst for US Balkanization.

So, maybe it'll go on sale here because they can't move stock to the US? Or they'll just manufacture fewer consoles, I suppose.
