So... source is in Brazilian Portuguese, so allow me to translate.

Source: https://g1.globo.com/fato-ou-fake/n...em-massa-de-bebes-em-uteros-artificiais.ghtml

Mensagem com foto que circula pela internet diz que o doutor em biomedicina Hideo Kojima é responsável pelo projeto. Nome e imagem remetem, na verdade, ao criador de jogos que trabalhou na Konami e hoje tem sua própria empresa. O bebê em questão é um boneco, brinde aos colecionadores de game.


HEADLINE : "JAPAN IS ALREADY CREATING BABIES IN LABS"

Translation: "Message with a photo currently running the internet says Dr in Biomedicine Hideo Kojima is responsible by the project. The name and picture, in reality, refer to the game creator that worked previously at Konami and today has his own company. The baby in question is a toy, a collectable for the game."

This is the photo people ran through Whatsapp across brazil to try and make it viral:

Just for added Context, G1 is a Major mainstream Journalist website. The largest in Brazil and the report that signs this particular "Fake news exposed" piece is a 20+ year career mainstream polical journalist at the company.

Brazil
How stupid can one be to make a rumour like that?

In the elections, a famous bulshit stories that circulated on whatsapp was that the previous goverment forced baby care places to use this

And the elected president went to one of the top news shows on the country and said a french teen book was being distributed by the goverment to teach the childrens to be gay

NEVER underestimate the fake news factories in brazil

Ok, I'd say cancel Brazil and Portugal because it's the same language. We can't just let this slip after we've already permabanned Spain.

Wait, what if Kojima really does have a genetic baby factory and the game is just a front? A way for him to mass produce the real "Les Enfant Terribles" under our noses, believing them to be mere toys? HE PLAYED US LIKE A DAMN FIDDLE!!

Kojima is a crazy maniac and Death Stranding is just him dramatising his own sick experiments for mass consumption!

I wouldn't be that surprised if Kojima's side project was creating baby clones in a lab though.
