Everything is fascist to you isn’t it? Like everything you disagree with. Amelia meme is reaction for Orwelian propaganda made be leftist people. Did you play the “Pathways” (game amelia character came from)? It literally Orwell novel

Yeah I played it. She was player bait, a classic femme fatale. You were supposed to end up at the racist rally because look she has fun hair and then oop regret your decisions.
Orwellian is a misnomer here, though. The “game” was literally about getting on with homework instead of being drawn into sketchy shit. Unless you really hate homework and you want to rage against learning idk

Nowhere it’s mentioned rally is racist. Literally nowhere. There’s not a single wrong thing about it, but it’s framed as bad. Worse, game implies that you should ignore scientific data (as main character goes through statistics and charts on supposedly harmful site). That’s horrifying. Like, Orwelian level of horrifying.
Obey. Never do your own research, obey, rallies bad because we say so, obey, obey, obey.
Orwell 1984 wasn’t supposed to be an instruction manual. FFS

This is very obviously an English nationalist, nativist, xenophobic, racist, rally.
Whilst it’s pointless to further discuss precise authorial intent, what is interesting is your insistence that this little illustrated story is not referencing the far-right with a character that has been subsequently co-opted by the far-right.
