      Well their air force flags literally still have swastikas in them. But no, hammers and sickles are the problem! Nazi scum nation.

        Actually, they replaced it a few years ago with something that’s totally not a sonnenrad.

            The whites really wanted to have a king, but weren’t allowed. So they still simp for their imaginary king.

              I think it was more that the German noble they wanted to be king declined because he thought that having a German monarch after Germany just got owned in WW1 would probably not be the best way to start a new nation state. I think they even kicked around the idea of making some Finnish politician king instead

      A certain intelligence community has been hard at work minimizing the contribution of the Soviets to ending WW2. It’s gotten so bad, I expect the next WW2 era first person shooter won’t be having a Russian campaign this time.

        The next? Call of Duty: WWII already came out six years ago and only had an American campaign lol

        It was honestly pretty hilarious how hard that one went into “America won WWII” territory when previous WWII ones were pretty good about showing how other countries made the bigger contributions (even with them still having biases and propaganda), most of them had a Russian campaign too

        Nah they’ll have one but it’ll be about all of the destroyer battalions of the NKVD with you playing as Putin’s father burning Ukrainian villages
