This looks like that zero-budget horror movie "Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey" that started running ads a few weeks after Pooh went public.
The entire advertising model is spectacle. There's nothing under the hood.
There's a movie for steamboat willie coming too. trailer hit yesterday.
I could a sworn Walt was an anti-semiye as well so i did a quick Google and came across this amazing quote.
Gabler said he read every one of Disney's papers in the company's archives, and says "I saw no evidence, other than casual anti-Semitism that virtually every gentile at that time would have, that Walt Disney was an anti-Semite," according to the report.

The charge: Walt Disney was an anti-Semite. The evidence: Well, there’s the famous Three Little Pigs scene, in which the wolf was portrayed as a Jewish peddler. (The scene was later reanimated.) And there is the fact that in 1938, a month after Kristallnacht, Disney personally welcomed Nazi director Leni Riefenstahl to his studios. [This sentence links to a NYT source.]

Jewish animator Art Babbitt, who maintained a "difficult relationship" with Disney throughout his career, claimed to have seen Disney and his lawyer, Gunther Lessing, attending meetings of pro-Nazi organisation the German American Bund in the late 1930s.
In his biography of Riefenstahl, author Steven Bach writes that upon her return to Germany, she thanked Disney for receiving her, saying it “was gratifying to learn how thoroughly proper Americans distance themselves from the smear campaigns of the Jews.”
I wonder what she would say if we could asked her if he was antisemitic?
"I saw no evidence, other than casual anti-Semitism that virtually every gentile at that time would have, that Walt Disney was an anti-Semite," according to the report.
"His Hitler Particle emissions are within ambient levels for 1930s America."
"This is no more radioactive than ambient levels in Chernobyl, Ukraine."
This is one of the most comedic things I've ever read, this is too hamfisted for the Onion to write
Even without documented evidence (of which there is in this thread, but even giving benefit of the doubt) disney was someone who had to be in control of everything and genuinely believed his ideas were divine. Read some of his stuff about the initial vision for epcot. His idea was to have families (the patriarchal fathers to be exact) sign away their autonomy to become human zoo exhibits in his "vision of tomorrow" which wouls actually be the parks' famous corporate sponsors' world in which their products are the future.
His philosophy and managerial style are uncomfortably close (at best) to that of the nazis.
The western definition of nazi as either "bully" or "strictly anti-semitic" really helps obfuscate them. Like Disney's involvement in the Red Scare is his most openly nazi action, but this implicated how many Americans are close to nazism so we cannot use that definition
American education tries soooo hard to obscure the fact that anti-communism is probably the defining feature of Naziism, with anti-semitism being an extension of it. They didn’t just hate Jews, they hated communism and believed it was a Jewish plot.
Just looked up wtf 1488 is
When are the new Nazi killing games coming along? No number of them is enough
I'm desperately trying to pull my finger out to make my metal slug inspired communist game. Rest assured there will be plenty of nazi killing.
Just getting to grips with Godot atm

Why because of some rando tweeter post?
Edit sorry thought you replied to adifferent comment
It's a pretty common dogwhistle, Trump admin and the CBP slipped in statements similar to the 14 words and some suspicious uses of the numbers, saw it in the usernames of white supremacists on reddit,ect. (Also a JPEGMAFIA song https://youtu.be/_WVOq6gC2Mg?si=1VavIa2rWW0OQ2E4)
Bless your heart for being chronically online enough to be on Hexbear but somehow never being exposed to 1488 before.
just saw something from Devs:
We're changing our game's name to 'Infestation: Origins'. Our game, "Infestation 88" is set in the 1980s with the year 1988 chosen simply due to its symmetrical design in the game's artwork/logo. Unfortunately, we were unaware of any additional meanings the number 88 has. However, after learning about this, we're changing the game's name to "Infestation: Origins." We apologize for our ignorance on this and appreciate that this was brought to our attention so we could address it ASAP!
yah. ok...
- Everyone who would design a game, especially a bit game like this, is terminally online
- Everyone who's terminally online knows "1488" and other Nazi shit
- These are Nazis
Also, the devs are American IIRC.
Almost every American is a fucking nazi so of course they'd know what 1488 is.
I saw someone alleging that game dev discord server has multiple known nazis on the mod team
Surprised the new title wasn't "Infestation: Protocols of the Elders of Mickey Mouse"
Our game, "Infestation 88" is set in the 1980s with the year 1988 chosen simply due to its symmetrical design in the game's artwork/logo.
Suuureeee it is... I'm fully expecting heavy metal hair bands and the like.
For real though I love that neo nazis have the lying capacity of a toddler
yeah if there was literally any indication of any underlying reactionary sentiment at all i'd be suspicious but we're just doing numerology as antifascism now. one step away from outlining triangles in beyonce concert videos and playing stones records backwards to hear the satanic messages.
like come on, keystrokes? really?
https://nitter.net/AnoriandGD/status/1742229949627445380#m
anyways, you were saying? please tell me more about how we're just doing QAnon numerology i wanna hear more about that.
LOL
????
let it fade into obscurity
Yeah I have no doubt hardly anyone even knew about this game until op posted rage bait
don't change the topic.
you came in here rudely mocking comrades who correctly called it out. i don't even care that you were wrong i'm more concerned about your tone. honestly, just do better next time
What. The link you linked quotes a removed post and I'm just quoting some of the very little text
Nazis gotta ruin everything
The sad part is that there's potential for art that uses Mickey as the representation of he is and makes real critique of our culture especially Disney but instead it's nazis doing stupid nazi shit
Tigger also became public domain this year, can't wait for the new frontier for Nazi games on Steam
I mean, it already looked like shit before any of this came out
This is just shit icing on the shit cake
viewing this image has summoned every hound in a 5 mile radius, plz send help
If you get to a zone border, the transition between your current zone and the next zone will be enough to cause the hounds to leash back to their spawn locations. Just make sure not to rezone before they get out of range, and definitely do not look at the image again once you re-enter the zone.
Like, damn, are these people just functionally unable to not do the Riddler-ass "cheeky dogwhistling" shit
it sucks that these people are winning. They fucking suck. Anyone with a pulse should be able to see this shit for what it is, yet here we are
This is more of a dog trainhorn which is exactly why they're doing it
: "Steamboat willie, the bad guy, is the nazi right?"
: "The bad guy is the nazi, right?"
I honestly don't really care much for this sort of stuff so I didnt bother watching the trailer, but the 88 flew over my head. And the fact that they use that imagery is just... ugh.
i think this person is insane, but the game looks like shit anyway so i support this tweet regardless
