Hmm, if I remember my Zelda correctly, that's a save point:

Ha, reminds me of how grassy lawns started out as a status symbol to show off that you were so rich that you needn't use your land for agriculture or gardening.
quick inspired vector sketch:
Fair point.
Love how in the 2nd panel he's seemingly staring down at the paper but it's later recontextualized.
At first I thot he's only in it for the food, but his "red team wooo" convinced me that he now deeply identifies with one side.
I'm leaning heavily towards hoax on this one. Surely some botanist somewhere would recognize the illustrations? Nowadays it's a hard sell that there's some secretly place somewhere that hasn't been charted botanically.

¿Anyone else found it bullshit how the only thing that actually matters is whoever touches the triforce first?

Windwaker has my favorite portrayal of Ganondorf.
He's made out to be human, sympathetic almost. While he may be misguided in choosing his methods, his actual motivation isn't. Thru his background story we come to learn why he behaves the way he does. He's tragically misguided, not mindlessly evil.
All the more I felt for him thusly when he gets cheated out of the fruits of his labor near the very end based on some technicality he couldn't possibly have foreseen. It's notable how only at this point, he flies into rage and draws his swords to destroy his enemies.
Pure speculation follows ⚠️:
wonder how many of them were fully briefed on just how illegal what they are doing is. The unveiled racism might provide some plausible deniability for those that are getting cold feet.

There you have it folks.
Disinformation campaigns don't need to be super convincing with the latest tech or elaborate fake outs, although it certainly helps. For the masses (ie election interference) it's easy enough to to establish narratives, vibes by users simply sharing headlines to fake or manipulative reports. The people that bother to deep check and cross reference sources you typically couldn't convince anyway. Sadly enough, most users never read beyond the head lines (75% this Facebook study estimates).
Think of your own feed: how many head lines // posts do you just scroll by w/out ever opening them? Even if you don't share actively it still can influence the your perception of the world today and shape your mood.
Social media is eating away at the fundamentals of Democracy 🫠, change my mind!
Saw the small preview thumbnail for this post and was expecting some historic laquered helmet or some thing. 🫢
Oh I knew I had to check it out once I saw the artist name; he did a lot of the tracks for Unreal Tournament 1 from 1999.
