Damien Rieu becomes the laughingstock of the Internet after his
Friday July 8, 2022, Shinzo Abe, was assassinated in the middle of an election rally in the city of Nara. Mortally hit by a homemade weapon, the former Japanese Prime Minister was the target of a certain Tetsuya Yamagami, a 41-year-old unemployed man and former member of the Maritime Self-Defense Force. However, on the 4chan forum, Internet users claimed that the shooter was a certain Samyueru Hydeo, sharing at the same time photos of Hideo Kojima to identify him. The Metal Gear Solid creator found himself in the middle of a racist joke that makes it seem like all Asians look the same. Only here, this joke of very bad taste has unfortunately traveled beyond the borders of 4chan, whose inglorious reputation is well established, thus finding itself taken up by official media all over the world. In France, it is Damien Rieux, far-right politician and member of the Reconquête! who was taken in by the fake news by sharing photos of Kojima in response to a tweet from Clémentine Autain of the LFI, explaining that “the Far Left kills!”.

If Damien Rieux, whistleblower as he describes himself in his Twitter bio, took Kojima for the murderer of Shinzo Abe, it was not by surfing on 4chan, but by taking seriously into account Georges Jordito’s troll tweet , whose real name is Georges Matharan, a far-right YouTuber who has notably produced videos for Current Values ​​and the Reconquest party. Suddenly, before Rieux himself posted the photos of Kojima as the assassin of the former Japanese Prime Minister, he had retweeted the post of Georges Jordito who had captioned the shots of the creators of video games by: “Shinzo Abe’s killer is far-left activist Samyuero Hydeo..


If Damien Rieux realized his dumpling by deleting the tweet fairly quickly, he had probably forgotten that the Internet never forgets and that screens of his tweet did not fail to ridicule him. The 33-year-old politician has since become the laughingstock of the web, so much so that some now have fun parodying and ridiculing him. We decided to share with you some of the funniest tweets, while Hideo Kojima is seriously considering filing a complaint by making an official intervention from his company Kojima Productions. “We do not tolerate such defamation and are considering taking legal action in some cases,” the Japanese company said.

However, Damien Rieux is not the only one to have relayed false information, other media such as ANT1 TV, the Greek television channel, and the Iranian site “Mashregh News” relayed the photos of Kojima as being the murderer by Shinzo Abe.
