    it’s really funny because it’s deranged, annoying VALVe white guy libertarianism strikes again.

    he’s indeed soviet, but the soviet leader is fucking uhhhhhh… Catherine the great??? anyways, i can already see the brain bugs that will emerge from this in the future, just like whatever they did with the Heavy in Team fortress 2 ‘‘oh, don’t worry about your favorite character being an evil soviet russian, he’s totally epic chungus! he was a monarchist white in the middle of World War 2 clueless’’

        Being surrounded by padded rooms full of money and internalizing the 90s high-school education and college political science that they ignored for modding Quake. Truly I think some of the education in the 90s was absolute bat-shit insane. They have some better standards nowadays but it was really a wild west on anti-communist myths after the USSR fell.
