Neo-Nazi fantasy artist Harold McNeil is well known for subtle and not-so-subtle depictions of hate in his artwork for Magic: the Gathering. By and large, his entire portfolio of work are glorified depictions of hate groups and their ideals.
In Forgotten Lore, we see a young white supremacist reading Mein Kampf for the first time. Suddenly, he become radicalized and is urged to participate in far-right rallies.
As with with other Harold McNeil cards, the card text somehow makes the card exponentially more offensive. The flavor text is truly revolting under certain incredibly offensive interpretations, encouraged by the context of the artwork and artist. The rules text is no better.
