Amelia is a fictional character from Pathways: Navigating the Internet and Extremism, a UK government-funded educational game developed by Hull City Council and Shout Out UK to teach students about online radicalization and extremism.
UK Government decided to make an anti "far right" propaganda game where if you chose to agree with Amelia, go to "dangerous websites or forums" watch a video that is "against what the UK gov deems safe" your character faces re education in the storyline. They intended this game to be in schools there.. however didnt go as planned. lol
She is portrayed as a purple-haired, goth-style schoolgirl who espouses anti-immigration and nationalist views, intended to serve as a cautionary antagonist. The game’s narrative presents her as a figure promoting "far-right" ideologies, with players expected to reject her rhetoric and avoid joining her protests.
However, in early 2026, Amelia became a viral internet meme, particularly among far-right and nationalist communities, who embraced her as a symbol of British identity and resistance to progressive policies.
This backfired on the UK government’s messaging, with critics arguing the game equated legitimate concerns about immigration and national identity with extremism. The game was pulled from public access after widespread backlash, but Amelia remains a prominent figure in online culture as a symbol of anti-establishment sentiment.
Amelia Earhart comes to mind as well. Even the name they chose for her was not a good choice if they intended her to be the "bad vibe" in the game. tbh.
