Prostate cancer is a common condition that rarely causes noticeable symptoms until much later. But everyone should still regularly look out for the most common signs of the cancer.
Prostate cancer is the most common type of cancer to be diagnosed in men in the UK, according to the NHS.
The tumour affects the prostate, which is a small gland that's found in the pelvis of men.
It's not always easy to know if you're at risk of prostate cancer, as the symptoms tend to develop very slowly over a long period of time.
But, you could reveal your chances of having prostate cancer by checking your urine.

Dr Kubes said: "As with any change in your body, you should keep a close eye on it and seek advice from your GP as soon as possible.
"In some cases there will be nothing to worry about, but it is vital to consult with an expert if you have any doubts whatsoever.
"The main warning signs you are likely to experience when going to the toilet are an increased need to urinate, during the day and night, a slow or interrupted flow and a feeling of still needing to urinate even when you have finished.
"It may be more difficult to start your flow and there could even be traces of blood in your urine.

text: Hello, These patches add a couple of OPAL read/write calls which let the OPAL drivers expose any kind of low level information : configuration, HW registers, statistics. The write call can perform some reconfiguration. I have been using them for a while on P9 and P10 to query XIVE internals, time statistics on HW procedures and to modify the allocation of XIVE resources for guests. It might be useful to others as debug or bringup extensions. Last is the quickly-coded generic Linux driver. One problem is our snprintf implementation in OPAL which does not return the number of bytes that would have been written if the buffer was large enough. It would help the Linux driver. Thanks, C.

The idea of growing the Saxena Center for Contemporary South Asia's endowment sprouted from a conversation.
Roughly two years ago, Ashish Jha, dean of the School of Public Health, and Ashutosh Varshney, professor of international studies and social sciences and political science and director of the Saxena Center, visited Parag Saxena P'13 P'14 P'15 at his home to discuss the project, Saxena said in an interview with The Herald.
Jha, Varshney and Saxena bounced around ideas about the center's possibilities in a nearly five-hour conversation that left Saxena feeling energized, he said. If only two professors could bring this much energy to the idea, an endowed center seemed to hold even more promise, Saxena said.
Now, the Saxena Center, previously called the Center for Contemporary South Asia, has been inaugurated following a $10 million gift from Parag and Usha Saxena P'13 P'14 P'15, leaving stakeholders in the center hoping that its new funding can push research on South Asia forward.
The center's inauguration Sept. 9 was conducted by President Christina Paxson P'19 and was followed by an economics panel and a concert by musician Ali Sethi. Panels on politics and culture followed on Sept. 10.
The Saxena Center's work focuses on urban development, pluralism, democracy and inequality across South Asia, according to a University press release. The new $10 million endowment, which was approved in February, will help expand the center's offerings across disciplines and will allow the center to send more students to South Asia for immersive study, Varshney told The Herald.
"In a sense, academia provides intellectual candy," Parag Saxena said, recalling his own educational days when he and his peers would debate intellectual theories until 3 a.m. — only to wake up for 8 a.m. classes the following day.
The center is focused on expanding its research into new fields, he continued, an endeavor which he believes is especially crucial to understanding how people's complex histories and cultures inform the way they think. This theme has been especially important to Parag Saxena himself, whose career has mostly centered around early-stage investing in the U.S. and South Asia. Businesses can only succeed by understanding their customers, he noted.
An Indian immigrant, Parag Saxena forged relationships with individuals from many South Asian countries throughout his own educational career, enriching his life with new perspectives, he said.
The ideas he encountered shed new light on countries which "otherwise you only see through the filters of your government and your news media, which may or may not be balanced," Parag Saxena said. "The intermingling of people and giving people common ground to converse is really important."
To help make this a reality, Varshney said he aims to create a multidisciplinary academic hub that facilitates long-term intellectual discourse between social scientists and diverse professionals such as physicians and public health experts.
The center is "so exciting because it's bringing together all the countries in South Asia … across disciplines to create dialogue," said Holly Shaffer, assistant professor of history of art and architecture who is associated with the center.
With the new endowment, Varshney hopes to strengthen Brown's relationship with global partners such as India's National Council of Applied Economics Research, as well as entities closer to home like the School of Public Health. He also would like to increase capacity for visiting scholars, policy makers and artists.
The inaugural weekend featured a live concert performance by Sethi, a Pakistani musician.
"We are beginning to pay a lot of attention to the artistic side of the region, and (Sethi's performance) was a way to showcase the artistic beauty and wealth of the region of South Asia," Varshney said.
Continuing the center's commitment to the arts, Shaffer plans to take a group of University students to Washington, D.C. this fall on a visit to an exhibition of Rajasthani painting. She also plans to invite one of the exhibit's curators to the University.
Nearly "every fourth person in the world (24%) is South Asian … and Brown has taken a very clear institutional decision to study the region," Varshney explained. "When I came in 2009, there was very little that was offered on South Asia. And now we've grown (into) an endowed center."
South Asia, a region of immense diversity, has experienced rapid economic growth in recent decades, placing its political, economic and social realities at the forefront of global affairs, Varshney wrote in a message on the center's website.
"Our seminars, lectures and events will bring leading literary and artistic figures, scholars, policy makers and public intellectuals to the campus," he wrote. "We will not only be focused on teaching and research, but will also be involved in public engagement."
Parag Saxena noted that the center's role as a hub of diverse thought has already begun.
The inaugural discussion panels convened diverse professionals and academics from across South Asia and the United States in fields such as architecture, political science, banking, economics and music.
"Over time if we can get people, whether they are bureaucrats, academicians, students (or) even businesspeople (together)," Saxena said, "that will make for much better relationships" within South Asia and beyond.

Two Cork beaches have been named in the Top 20 "hidden gems" list for wild swimming across the UK and Ireland. West Cork's Garnish Beach and Oysterhaven Beach received the highest ratings and reviews on Google for being the cleanest and safest swimming spots.
Ocean Bottle, an environmental group, researched water quality before cross-referencing Google ratings and reviews to put together a list of the lesser-known beautiful beaches.
They took water samples from over 800 waterways across Ireland and the UK to find the cleanest and safest swimming spots.
According to Google reviews, many have left 5-star ratings for the beaches.
One person said: "Beautiful beach and very quiet. There is good parking for cars also."
Another said: "Lovely wee gem, peaceful and only one other person there. The activity centre is located here [on Oysterhaven beach], would like to try it out sometime! Park along the wall on the road."
11 out of 20 beaches on the list were in Ireland with Oysterhaven Beach taking number 8, and Garnish Beach taking number 14.
Last month, Google maps revealed the county's top-rated beaches after hundreds of users awarded it five stars for its "magnificent" beauty. The clear winner was Barleycove beach on the Mizen Peninsula. It was rated 5/5 by 417 users.
But there were also several other beaches that received great ratings as well:
- Barleycove Beach, Mizen Peninsula – 4.8 stars (Blue Flag)
- Ballydonegan Beach, Allihies – 4.8 stars
- Dunworley Beach – 4.8 stars
- White Bay Beach (Cuan Bán) – 4.8 stars
- Ballyrisode Beach – 4.8 stars
- Long Strand, Rathbarry – 4.8 stars
- Inchydoney Beach – 4.7 stars (Blue Flag)
- Dock beach, Kinsale – 4.7 stars
- Front Strand Beach – 4.7 stars (Blue Flag)
- Garretstown Beach – 4.7 stars
It's a great chance to check out some of these beaches while the sun shines. Our national forecaster, Met Eireann has said that temperatures are set to increase over the weekend and that we should expect plenty of sunshine as "heatwave conditions are very likely."
Further information on the research can be found here.

The spiral is one of the oldest and most universal symbols. The spiral is a revered and sacred symbol that reminds us of our winding, evolving journey in life and reflect the life cycles of time, nature, birth death, a woman's symbol, the goddess, the womb, fertility, circles, intuition, intention, growth, learning, development and our relationships. it has both masculine and feminine energies and represents connection and eternal love, as well as the beginning of love and our love stories.
Spirals are found everywhere and they represent the inward journey that we must all take if we are to truly know and love ourselves. The spiral brings attention to our own love story and to our mate, especially as the cycles of change and time unfold what is true. Become aware of spirals within your own life – the circles that show up and demand something new from you.
Spirals have always touched me personally, in ways that i have never quite understood. as i have aged, the symbolism of spirals has remained present in my life.
They are my hope, my own connection, my ritual, my grounding and they symbolically show my relationship with intimacy and love. as i prepare to marry my lovely man, i want to stand in a sacred spiral with our family and friends. in this circle, we can say our vows to each other and have the spiral witness to our future intentions. This feels like a privilege. My wish is that we notice spirals and learn from them and may our own love stories be more present, kind and sacred.
something beautiful for you
"It's clear to me now that I have been moving toward you and you toward me for a long time. Though neither of us was aware of the other before we met, there was a kind of mindless certainty bumming blithely along beneath our ignorance that ensured we would come together. Like two solitary birds flying the great prairies by celestial reckoning, all of these years and lifetimes we have been moving toward one another." Robert James Waller, The Bridges of Madison County.

Santa comes to town in Port Jeff
You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, want to know why?
Santa Claus made his way for another year to Port Jefferson last weekend, ringing in holiday cheer and the start of the Christmas season.
Who else joined the parade with the man in red, whose sled was attached to a horse-drawn carriage? Other visitors included business owners and elected officials who took the time to show some spirit with costumes, floats and dancing.
Local Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts dressed in their favorite holiday hats Sunday, Nov. 26, along with Shine Dance Studio and Backstage Studio of Dance who had their students twirl up and down Main Street. Special guests showed up including Disney princesses, Donald Duck and Goofy. The parade was finished with a march of characters from the upcoming Dickens Festival scheduled for next weekend.
"I'm grateful to the Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce for giving first responders, business owners, elected officials, Scout troops, community groups and performing artists an opportunity to sync up and help usher in the joy of the holiday season for the young and young-at-heart," said Deputy Mayor Rebecca Kassay, who is currently running for New York's 4th Assembly District. "May the weather be just as cooperative and the spirits just as jolly for the Dickens Festival this coming weekend," she added.

Challenging Censorship
India's online censorship laws have, since they were framed, been entirely lacking in transparency, and have consequently shielded the Indian government from any and all form of accountability. A writ petition by Twitter in an Indian High Court hopes to change that. Depending on which way the Courts rule, the fundamental rights of free expression, of due process and of access to the internet of millions of Indians are going to be decided by the end of this case.

Why don't they just stop stopping the internet?
We cannot trust the Indian state to forego the easy option for the right option. And that's why we need transparency and accountability on internet shutdowns. The Supreme Court recognised this when it ordered that all internet suspension orders must be made available widely, to enable affected citizens to challenge these orders in Court. In practice, the Supreme Court's orders have been ignored. Continue reading >>

How Background Change Professionals Can Help You
Background change is the use of various programs or tools like Photoshop, raster graphics editor, or Inkscape to allow changing or altering the color of any background in an image. Changing the background is used my most graphic designers that receive requests from customers to alter their images for various reasons like putting an image on a website, for weddings, parties, etc. this kind of work can be learned through the help of the aforementioned programs. Changing the backgrounds can also be done in bulk as opposed to one at a time, allowing someone to change any number of backgrounds with a few clicks to suit their needs.
Knowing to change backgrounds can help your business because it is essential to be able to change a photos background to suite your various needs. For example the same image can be used but simply changing the background can give a whole new effect, allowing for you to save time and money for development of an image. People also enjoy seeing vivid backgrounds so it is important to know what clients or customers are interested in and simply using a program like Photoshop to change the background to engage customers. If you are in need for a background change, look no further than Guru.com, where a freelancer is waiting to help you for the price you most want.

Welcome to Minister of Health Matheu, Vice Chancellor Rodríguez, Director of the EPI, Dr. Guevara, Dr. Perela PAHO Official, UNICEF Representative, Mark Connoly, and friends!
I don't know about you, but I know of many people who have recently tested positive for COVID-19.
We are in the midst of another big wave of COVID.
As some of you know, our Ambassador Laura Dogu tested positive for COVID-19 this week.
She wishes she could be present today, but she is following medical recommendations by staying home.
Thank God, her case is mild because she is fully vaccinated.
Everyone in Honduras has the opportunity to protect themselves in the same way.
Today we celebrate the recent donations of pediatric and adult vaccines from the US Government.
Last week we donated 153,600 doses of Pfizer pediatric vaccines.
These vaccines are for children between 5 and 11 years old.
With this donation, I am happy to announce that Honduras became the first country in Latin America to receive pediatric vaccines from the United States.
Today, we also celebrate the arrival of 346,320 doses of Pfizer vaccines for adults.
These boxes here are part of the shipment that contains the doses.
Getting vaccinated is vital.
Get your booster shots.
Protect your health.
Protect the health of your family and friends.
Help us end these waves of COVID.
Our wish is that together we move forward with safe steps to a new normal.
Currently, we are faced with economic uncertainty around the world.
Some things are not in our control, what is in our control is to protect ourselves through vaccination.
With this, we can recover the economy and generate more sources of employment in the country.
Today, once again I invite Hondurans to get vaccinated.
Don't miss the opportunity to protect yourself and your loved ones.
We continue to support Honduras through the COVAX mechanism.
To date, we have donated more than 5.2 million doses of vaccines.
Honduras, we are together in this fight.
We are brother peoples and we are going to fight this pandemic.
My final message.
Catracho, get vaccinated today!
Many thanks!

"It is (I know how obscene this sounds) Nazi chic."
—Roger Ebert on Liliana Cavani's The Night Porter (1974)
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus has largely escaped scrutiny thanks to its release in the midst of a public resurgence of white supremacist violence in the United States—someone at publisher Bethesda was surely counting their blessings when Donald Trump was elected.
Like katamaris rolling downhill, any art created since November 8, 2016 has accrued a nimbus of undue gravity. Everything "since Trump" has become "about Trump," in a frenzy that's half intellectual laziness and half blind panic. In a piece I have not stopped thinking about since its publication in February 2017, critic Josephine Livingstone warned us against this kind of easy gratification, which "relies on a vision of cultural politics that is tied necessarily to the state."
One of the dangers of this critical myopia is that we "succumb to binaristic thinking—is the art against Trump or escaping from Trump?" Livingstone writes. The center-left impulse to use the ostensible anomaly of Donald Trump to whitewash American history—see the baffling rehabilitation of George W. Bush, whose administration started an illegal war of aggression within living memory—finds a smaller, less dangerous echo in the critic's free use of Trump as a legitimizing totem.
"Nobody wants to feel useless," Livingstone writes, and cultural criticism can feel like rowing a boat upstream at the best of times. Desperate binarism is an understandable impulse, but it should never go unexamined. Wolfenstein II's marketing cannily played into America's heightened political climate and, by proxy, this popular critical tendency. It's hardly the first game to allow violence against digital Nazis but it was the first since Trump was elected, and Bethesda's PR framing worked perfectly.
But Wolfenstein II is a game which vomits forth unexamined American exceptionalism once it's done the due diligence of acknowledging that sure, America made some mistakes; a game which (per Reid) correctly recounts the documented historical relationship between Nazi policies and Jim Crow laws and then inexplicably forgets all that in its enervating second half. It has nothing to say about how fascism works and little to say about America's history of hate that hasn't been said better elsewhere. Its chief fascination, in fact, is with Nazi aesthetics. Its fatal mistake is ignoring what those aesthetics meant.
Nazi Germany used art and culture as another arm of its world-burning political ambitions. The Guardian's Ian Beacock, reviewing Benjamin Martin's recent book on this subject The Nazi-Fascist New Order for European Culture, notes that the European Axis powers claimed a "sacred duty to defend national art against the degenerative force of global cosmopolitanism … [the Axis] was also the founding charter of a dynamic civilization." Purity in art, as in genetics, was the aim—judged by "its reflection of a single national tradition."
Adolf Hitler, of course, was a painter, and his ideas about art were twinned with his virulent nationalism. In a 1938 speech, he—conveniently, given his prosaic watercolors—argued that "cultural creative work, since it is the most sensitive expression of a talent conditioned by blood, cannot be understood, far less appreciated, by individuals or races who are not of the same or related blood." This rhetoric cleanly folded into the smelter of Nazi ideology. Their sentimental, brutal pan-Germanism flattered itself with the notion that its exceptionalism was so exceptional it took German blood to even recognize.
In her 1975 essay "Fascinating Fascism," Susan Sontag cooly dissects the mythology of Hitler's favorite propagandist Leni Riefenstahl. The "very conception" of Riefenstahl's 1935 Hitler hagiography Triumph of the Will, Sontag writes, "negates the possibility of the film maker's having an aesthetic or visual conception independent of propaganda." The film was commissioned explicitly to glorify the rise of Hitler and the Nazi party; it does so with nauseating effectiveness. To argue that the film can be appreciated in a vacuum as a technical achievement—as the Criterion Collection implicitly did last year by including Riefenstahl's 1938 Olympia in their 100 Years of Olympic Films boxset, though they were hardly the first—is to ignore the explicit function of those techniques. It is to depoliticize that which exists to be political. To wit: a 2015 IndieWire listicle of the 100 best movies by female directors put Triumph of the Will at number six, with a blurb that climaxes with this monumentally glib one-liner: "[S]ay what you will about Hitler, but he had more faith in a woman behind the camera than do most contemporary movie studios."
For Sontag, and many other theorists, Nazi art cannot be decoupled from Nazi ideology. One is the vehicle for the other. The Nazi aesthetic carries violence within it and was specifically designed to do so—a leather-bound death drive. Sontag concludes her essay by connecting the then-fashionable eroticization of SS uniforms to the shared theatricality of both Nazism and S&M (slightly ungenerously to S&M, I'd say), and the shiver of forbidden, transgressive sexuality that springs from a union of the two. "Never before in history was the relation of masters and slaves realized with so consciously artistic a design," she writes. "The color is black, the material is leather, the seduction is beauty, the justification is honesty, the aim is ecstasy, the fantasy is death."
This is not to argue that Nazi iconography is insubvertible or verboten—Terry Eagleton calls aesthetics an "amphibious concept" that is almost intractably complex—but its presence in art is like a black hole. It is so specific, so immutable in meaning that the thoughtless deployment of swastikas, red-and-black, and SS uniforms threatens to swallow everything around them. Filmmakers have long struggled to depict the horror of the Holocaust; the elaborate set-design recreations of concentration camps in films like Schindler's List (1993), Life is Beautiful (1997), and Son of Saul (2015) call attention to themselves without revealing much complexity.
Other filmmakers have found more success in restraint. Spanish filmmaker Agustín Villaronga's 1986 art-shocker In a Glass Cage brilliantly refrains from showing explicit Nazi iconography until its climax, at the moment of maximum impact. Not until Villaronga needs to drive home his point—that fascism twists its victims into willing perpetrators—does an SS uniform appear on-screen. It's a film full of grotesque images where the most horrific one remains the uniform-as-synecdoche. It understands how loaded, how powerful the Nazi aesthetic remains.
Czech director Juraj Herz's 1969 The Cremator is similarly judicious with its use of Nazi imagery; cinematographer Stanislav Milota throws out every expressionist trick in the book to render a world of imperceptible moral decay, a death-by-thousand-cuts slide into fanatical Nazi complicity. As its protagonist Karl gleefully relays his plans for a massive oven that could incinerate hundreds, even thousands of bodies—living or dead—Milota frames him not against any recognizable Nazi imagery but against painter Hieronymus Bosch's enigmatic triptych The Garden of Earthly Delights. The juxtaposition twists Bosch's strange, playful erotics into a staggering vision of a forthcoming hell on Earth.
The character of Karl vividly illustrates Hannah Arendt's oft-cited "the banality of evil," from her 1963 Eichmann in Jerusalem. Karl, like key Holocaust architect Adolf Eichmann, invests himself in Nazism as a vocation, and in the extermination of ethnic groups as a problem to be solved. Karl is rudderless, grasping at any bit of wisdom he can find; like Donald Trump, he comes out of any conversation repeating what the other party just told him. There is only a handful of explicit on-screen Nazi images in the film, and Karl has no real affinity for Hitler and his ideology. In his characterization there's an further echo of Arendt's words: "[I]n politics obedience and Support are the same."
I hope I have complicated the easy notion that in order to explore Nazism one must literally, representationally depict the Nazis. The image of the Nazi has to be undermined, to be defamiliarized in order to recoup meaning—partly because, as Roger Berkowitz claims, Hannah Arendt's foundational writing on fascist psychology has been "violently misunderstood." She is quotable, but her work only reveals itself in totality. Arendt's words have been wielded as cliche more often than not, and the barking SS officer, riding crop in hand, has similarly become a villainous caricature. A cruder summation of the issue of depiction would be the old saw that the movie monster is scariest when half in shadow.
Wolfenstein II is festooned with Nazi iconography. Given its halfhearted, unfinished scrawl of a plot, it's fair to say the game exists to answer the apparent question "What if the Nazis built a base on Venus?" Something to consider: one of the many in-game collectibles is concept art of wild alt-universe Nazi technology, traces of a narrowly avoided past that should be too awful to even comprehend, instead turned into something like historically wrenching Pokemon cards. A Nazi-occupied America was "such a fun theme to explore," said MachineGames' senior game designer Arcade Berg.
The fêting of Wolfenstein II as a trenchant text in an era of nascent American fascism should be belied by how superficially it treats a Nazi world order: a comic gang of smartly dressed assholes who have no apparent motivation beyond the eradication of B.J. Blazkowicz. The Nazis want to destroy B.J.; B.J. wants to destroy the Nazis. B.J., as Frau Engel notes in the game's predecessor, The New Order, looks Aryan, a fraught tension that's forgotten in The New Colossus. B.J. is just not a Nazi, a blond-haired, blue-eyed monument to good old American grit.
On one hand, B.J.'s incorruptible Goodness is surely as believable within the game's diegesis as his foes' determined Badness. On the other, the game seems to believe that these are immutable qualities; that is, B.J. is good because he has always been good. Here I'd point to Frau Engel's daughter, Sigrun, who is established as a parallel to B.J.—living under an abusive parent in thrall to a toxic ideology. Engel berates Sigrun for her weight and her diet like one of the parents in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory—"You disgrace your blood line, your race!" Engel screams after Sigrun says she had a "small slice" of cake. Sigrun even tries to stop her mother from killing resistance leader Caroline Becker; she doesn't appear to be complicit in anything her mother does.
Near the game's climax, Sigrun decides she's had enough of Blaxploitation caricature Sister Grace calling her a Nazi. She slaps Grace full across the face, throwing her to the ground, and then lifts her by the neck. "Don't ever call me a Nazi again," she cries. "I am not a Nazi. You do not have the right to label me something I am not—as someone less than yourself. As someone less than human."
This is a revealing choice of words. Engel calls Caroline "subhuman" as she chops off her head; Sigrun sees Nazis as subhuman. These divisions mean nothing when the characters are so flatly written, with any conflicts resolved as soon as they come up, but obviously the latter is borne out through play as B.J. blasts his way through hundreds of anonymous Nazi soldiers. He proves himself better than his abusive, self-serving father, symbolically linked to America's racist past, by hacking him to death with an axe. The potential character dilemma here, that B.J. is forced to kill his father to escape his violent influence, is entirely glossed over.
Having done their due diligence by showing Blazkowicz renounce his father's Nazi complicity, MachineGames indulge in pure, uncut "America is Great Because America is Good" for the rest of the game. B.J., Sigrun, the United States: righteousness is in their blood, as a sort of exaggerated counterpoint to the Nazi obsession with tainted blood. It's a bizarre, jingoistic conclusion to a work that previously problematized, albeit to the minimum extent required, that same image of America as the city on the hill.
But, as Reid has talked about with both Wolfenstein games, Wolfenstein II is ultimately an absurd gloss on American history. "What's interesting about America is that it's a country very much founded on the idea of freedom," said creative director Jens Matthies. "To have that be under totalitarian control [is] a very interesting juxtaposition." This naive attitude explains the game taking its subtitle from Emma Lazarus's "The New Colossus," the poem which adorns the base of the Statue of Liberty and represents another of America's visions of itself which it has routinely failed to live up to. Note that at the end of The New Order, B.J. recites "The New Colossus" as he lays dying, with his partner Anya having literally taken the torch from him to lead the fight against the Nazis. It felt desperate, even touching, then; smug and unfounded now.
What is the #resistance fighting for, at the end of Wolfenstein II? To reclaim their country from external corruption? The presence of real-world revolutionary signifiers, however diluted, reminds us that for anyone outside the white American upper class, the founding principles of the United States were never actually put into practice. The men who wrote this country into existence were hypocritical slaveowners who had a way with words. The Constitution is as carefully designed an aesthetic statement as the SS uniform: a vehicle for a rapacious, self-serving ideology that materially destroyed untold human lives.
In subsuming America's own sins into a cartoonish Nazi regime, Wolfenstein II threatens to absolve a legacy of hate whose wounds remain open to this day—and moreover, is one tiny symptom of a greater selective liberal amnesia that wishes to compartmentalize Donald Trump as a historical aberration rather than the grotesque, gnashing culmination of American empire. In that way, perhaps, it is as timely a text as you could find.
