Any and all gaming projects, be they full game releases or some dudes personal mod, will be hounded by JAQing off about how communism is actually bad. There’s a real smugness to it, too. Like, “whao guys I know you’re having fun over here but we’re all on the same page that stalin murdered my grandparents with a giant spoon, right??”

Worse — Nazi Kulaks, and Stalin killed them with his comically large spoon! :-(

I have actual ancestors that were killed in crimea after the communist revolution. They owned a mill and apparently were dicks and colonizers. I told my daughter about it and she responded ‘they probably had it coming’. I’m a very proud father
