Have *you* gone to buy a Pokémon game in the past 5 years and noticed that they cost hundreds of dollars?
There's two simple explanations for that. Unfortunately, they're "scams" and "fascism".

@LaserDyke@tacobelllabs.net wonderful article! something i've also noticed as of late is people using the aesthetics of retro video games for fascistic 'look what they took from you' propaganda. scary stuff!
