  • Wagner group alone is a neonazi organization that had tens of thousands of members just a few years ago, an order of magnitude more than the famous Azov brigade. And it’s literally named after Hitler’s favourite composer.

    Neonazis are only an issue for Putin when they can be used as justification for war. Otherwise, they don’t matter.


  • Yes because Russia isn’t always looking for justification for war.

    There are multiple countries in Eastern Europe that likely would no longer be independent without NATO. My own home among them.

    Neighbours that aren’t in an alliance seem to get invaded. Georgia first, now Ukraine twice.

    Russia always finds a genocide or whatever to justify military action. Both Georgia and Ukraine were mentioned as targets all the way back in 1997.

    And when your kind says the things your kind often says, I think you can see why more moderate people consider you about equivalent with the nazis. What to most people means “doesn’t hate minorities and wants everyone to have healthcare” is what tankies seem to hate much more than they hate actual fascists.

    Horseshoe seems pretty real tbh.

    On PC at least it was probably because of the requirements. It was pretty rough on PCs. Works better using Proton than it did with Windows Vista or 7, though you can compile dxvk or whatever for Windows too to make it better now. On consoles, you needed a 2 year old console rather than a 4 year old one so I suspect fewer people had them this early into the generation. Later on, you’d get GTA V on the same generation.
