Why was ze Fürher in Persona 2?
Because in the game rumors become reality.
Someone went as far as to make a rumor starring Hitler leading a Nazi/alien/demon invasion and unsurprisingly, it came true.

Well rumors become reality. So if there was a rumor that Hitler was coming back and then it happened...is that really hitler? I never beat the game myself.

from the wikia
>The infamous German dictator that took power in 1932. When Akinari Kashihara's book is leaked to Maya Amano's publishing company, the Fuhrer and his forces are resurrected by the rumors that result. According to rumor he did not commit suicide in 1945, but was saved by his elite soldiers, the Last Battalion, and he's still alive, waiting to come back to power. He wants to raise Xibalba so that he can create the perfect Dictator-State in Sumaru City. He's also Nyarlathotep in disguise - Nyarlathotep took the form of the evil that people commit in groups, not just an individual Shadow.
>Nyarlathotep was created by H.P. Lovecraft and is a fictional character in the Cthulhu Mythos featured as an Outer God. He is also symbolic of the destructive potential of Carl Jung's collective unconscious and actively seeks to agitate our universe into madness, woe, and discord.

If rumor magic was real, what limitations would it have? Rumors are everywhere on all scales. What if rumors conflict? How many people would have to believe the rumor? What if you knowingly trick people into creating a rumor in your favor?

>How many people would have to believe the rumor?
Most people.
>What if you knowingly trick people into creating a rumor in your favor?
Literally something you can do in the game.

If rumor magic was to be real, we'd already be experiencing the events of Fallout.
>>343865897
There are several times in the game were rumors conflict, and you use the services of a detective agency to spread one of them more. The one that was more spread is the one that turns into reality.
Were the sunglasses an improvement?
>>343865897
The thing is that most of the time rumors are mostly based on reality, otherwise they don't really spread.
To create more bizarre rumors you would need to fake some weird event to use as a foothold to "boy, there sure are some really crazy things happening in town lately!".

No but they weren't bad either. It helps that they actually drew them on and it wasn't like the FE:A censorship where they just photoshop an out of place curtain over her ass.

Some crazy people think that Meme magic is actually real.
All that is in essence is that belief can make things real or has made them real.
Also the same sort of shit that the Orks in warhammer do.
So if you get enough people to believe in something hard enough then anything is possible.

Hitler is a lot of people's husbando.
If they brought your waifu into the world she'd have to love a lot of people.
