That isn't what they are saying at all, though. You people completely misinterpreted the post. Yes, the alt right incel shit is dumb, but that isn't the point they are making.     In their opinion, Game Freak and Nintendo made Pikachu a global phenomenon by creating an adorable character that kids can feel attached to and follow on his journey. Kids who have watched Pokemon will watch Pikachu grow with Ash, and feel like Pikachu is their friend. So when Pikachu is sad, they sympathize because they are sad. When Pikachu is lonely, they sympathize because they are lonely.     Nobody said that Pikachu is a Nazi. All OP did was describe mascot marketing in a nutshell. They just fucked up by tacking on a stupid comparison at the end.
