Donald Trump’s White House has launched Arcade.Gov, a site with mini-games where you catch and deport immigrants, or use Tetris blocks to build a border wall.

I know that this is potentially a spicy thing to post to this community, but I do think it is relevant to games and gaming. They are advertising it with using likenesses of major gaming brands.

    Somebody should do a remake of Hudson Island. It’ll be exactly the same but it’ll be called Epstein Island and at the end of each stage you rescue a child from a cage.

    Wouldn’t it be hilarious if AI DDOS’d this site? Since it’s “going rogue” and all that.

    I remember there was an awful computer game decades ago which had the player torture and kill some prisoners in a concentration camp.

    Now the motherfucker is going full double down, God knows who the disgusting fuck is making this fascist Kluxer garbage.

      no. the worst thing to happen to this world is that we didn’t execute every single nazi and israeli filth the first time around. the second worst thing is that we didn’t make a law that made it illegal to be a nazi. the third worst thing to happen is that we didn’t execute filthy nazis on sight when they popped up in America.

    Tinfoil hat time-

    They want the lawsuits. They’ve stacked the courts already, they’ll win and as a hedge the worst they’ll get is told to stop it.

    They want the legal precedent from those smaller lawsuits, so Elon and Altman can just start wholesale ripping off games with Grok and GPT-6.

      That would really be 4d chess. I’m not sure they are that smart.

      I’m going to propose an alternative theory. I think the real reason is because they are childish, immature trolls and revel in causing other people’s misery. Although these two theories are not mutually exclusive.

      Have you seen my AI generated parody of the live action Moana? We just added some Nazi tattoos to the Rock and called it good, it’s a statement on the duality of man, not copyright infringement or hate speech, trust me.

    Very Christian of them, indeed. Exactly the opposite of what the bible dictates.

    My vocabulary lacks the words to express the disappointment, the lack of class and what not.

    Jews Out! Board Game

    Force the Jews beyond the medieval walls and out the city. The first player to rid the city of six Jews wins.

    With illustrations of a ‘typical’ Jewish family on the move accompanied by the text, Off to Palestine!

      Yes, this season of Earth is satire. The writers have pivoted away from the Drama genre and gone for something more fun. The Medical Thriller seasons were really unpopular with most demographics.

        Many are disappointed by this tired sequel to the Gulf War movies as well, it doesn’t even have a cool name.

    So they decided that the best way to capture the attention of today’s youth is with clones of games made 30 or 40 years ago. Sure, you know what, good job White House, have a cookie. Everybody clap for how well they understand the children and teenagers of 2026.

      I would not dismiss their influence so cavalierly. The shift right among male youth is very concerning and real.

        They are also working on teenage girls with the “TERF” thing. Pink fascism and SAHM trade wife propaganda is huge on Pinterest.

    I’m almost sure this administration is taking advice from grok or something
