Depends on the context. I don't know why people act like these things do not exist in 2018.

We live in a very offended generation. It might not work especially for a Nintendo game.

I don't think the Blue Town was supposed to reference the KKK more then any other extremist cult. Also the KKK doesn't exist in Japan so it wouldn't effect their media.

Yeah doubt an official Nintendo liscenced game could do it anymore.

Obsessed with a single color, and has "HH" written on their cap. I don't know how much in denial you can be, champ.

Perhaps Nintendo would decide it would go against their image, but current games still are invoking such imagery or implications, so yes, they'd be able to "get away with it"
