      Even if you reskinned the circumstance from nazis to space nazis, any kind of moral engagement that isn't neatly good vs evil has that danger. Any theme has the technical possibility that it will confuse people. It puts a lot of burden on art to say it has to avoid topics or have a correct political message it needs to spell out (which might undercut effectiveness). I guess we can redefine art and give it a bunch of rules.

Also, they would've never killed everyone, since they were already allied with non arian nations.
      So yeah, there would still ve reasons to fight for better treatment over time.
      I mean hell, even after men and women became equal in the west, they found ways to reach for supremacy under the guise of equality, by blaming us for natural factors and situation that haven't been created by common men, whilst women haven't changed even one of their toxic behaviours, and yet they still call it a fight for social justice, whilst they should actualy fight the rich that control the system trough lobbying, and against nature itself.
      And who do they attack most, these days, it's incels, men that literaly 99 times out of a 100, don't even interact with women ^^
      So yeah, hypoteticaly speaking, in the situation described, there would still be circumstances that could lead to nazi sjws, use your fantasy, the op was already a thought experiment, i just thougt about it a little further, because of the videotopic 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I remember being a kid and had four legos built to represent people, having a large group be the Nazis and the other being a lone soldier blasting them away, and to add to the aesthetic was a drawing of a swatiska that I used to illustrate which side was bad.
    My dad immediately upon seeing this was under the impression I was turning into a nazi with its iconography in my room.
    No. I know Nazis were bad. I saw them being the bad guys in Indiana Jones and Star Trek.

    Edit: Also the German military still uses the Iron Cross, and it dates all the way back to 1813, over 100 years before the Nazis took power.

    The developers of CoD literally made it so you play as Wehrmacht and not SS for the exact reason that they didn't want players to be Nazis -- strictly speaking they're not Nazis, they're the German Army. Nazi is a term to denote a member of the National Socialist Party. The soldiers of the Wehrmacht were men and women that fought and died for their country like any British, American, Russian, French or otherwise soldiers. We now know about the horrors and atrocities of the Nazi regime through hindsight but it wasn't that simple back then, and that video ignores the moral complexities around responsibilities for the crimes of the Nazi regime.

      IndieTraufe that and also it’s historically accurate to use Wehrmacht as that is the name of the German Army, not the Nazi Wehrmacht or something linking them directly to the Nazi Party. I would partly also put the SS as not the wehrmacht as they were a private security group for the Nazis known as the SA originally, after they took over Hitler considered them their security still and so many SS soldiers were actually used in battle. So in truthfulness if you were fighting as the SS in a historically-accurate shooter, it would probably be against the Americans, Wehrmacht, and the British, etc. as the SS were private not government funded.... technically.

      @@theteethburglar4716 If you agree to have sex with someone, you have consented. (unless you are a minor with an adult, minors can't consent, save for those who are only a few years apart, i.e. 17/18 or 16/18) You can *revoke* your consent during the act and if you're with a respectable person, they should abide by that, but *regret isn't rape.*
      Aka after the act is done, you can't say "I shouldn't have done that, you're a rapist now." And you can't say someone is a rapist because they didn't read your mind and stop when you wanted them to (but didn't say it.).
      Regardless, this was a joke. You could revoke your consent to the game by *not playing* or *throwing it away* but maybe you should do your research before you buy games that might offend you. You wouldn't go to a dominatrix/dominator expecting vanilla sex, so why would you buy a WWII PVP game expecting never to see Nazis or to always to be killing them. It's PVP, so that means you'd be fighting another player, and it's WWII so that means it's allies vs axis powers... it's randomized to give each team a generally fair number of players because if you always got to pick who you wanted to be, it'd be unbalanced and unfair.
      Point is, you can't buy a game, find out you don't like it, and then say you got robbed of your money. Unlike sex, you MIGHT be able to get a refund depending on the situation, but you can't sue the developers for making a game you bought and didn't like.

    An immersion break is exactly what they're going for when they ask for Red vs Blue. Their mindset is "immersion = reality" which is why they need it to either be toy guns or entirely disconnected from the real world.

    There you are, in Digglet's cave, then suddenly an overleveled Dugtrio with arena trap appears.

    You didn't choose this.

    I've followed their Extra History series and I distinctly remember them getting sponsorship from World of Tanks and Hearts of Iron IV.
