Does anyone know any good games where you kill fascist CIA and US army scum? Ideally as a Marxist-Leninist freedom fighter or as a soldier of a socialist country. Otherwise, games where you fight US puppets like Israel as say a Palestinian freedom fighter are also more than welcome.
Red Alert 3 allowed me to destroy both the Japanese fascists and NATO so its good.
i recently watched a let’s play of red alert 1 (been a minute since i played it) and boy howdy, the allied mission videos have very strong nazi vibes in places.
westwood made stalin comically evil (all that’s missing is the big spoon) but they also made the allies pretty nazi. i dont think they did it consciously though, it’s just their westoid brain scrambling things.
but they also made the allies pretty nazi.
Funniest thing is that it’s kinda dialectical, Red Alert series start with assassination of Hitler when he comes out of prison in 1924, which wouldn’t stop nazism, but shuffle its leadership maybe with someone less revanchist but still nazi. So the course in which the nazi Germany allies and finally unites with USA, UK and France against USSR is very probable especially it’s exactly what west tried to do in our timeline.
yeah, the red alert allied timeline is what westoids have been wishing had actually happened. patton’s “we fought the wrong enemy” quote and all that.
and of course they couldnt give stalin the victory on the soviet timeline, it had to be some kane bullshit.
This was also developed by a single comrade. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1714420/Fursan_alAqsa_The_Knights_of_the_AlAqsa_Mosque/
“comrade”
guy doesn't support LGBT as a muslim, insinuating that being muslim must mean you have to be anti-LGBT; also has called LGBT a "lifestyle"
he doesn't want democracy (hopefully by that he means western bougie democracy, ugh); wants sharia and an islamic caliphate
thinks "islamic" monarchies are better than western style democracy (even though both are bad)
lmfao, reminds me of people going “capitalism may be ruining and destroying our lives but it’s still a good, working ideology”
more anti-lgbt nonsense, about how gay things are admonished by ALL religions in the world and is somehow against muh human natoor (living in concrete, eating modern food, playing video games+making them is also against human natoor, you dipshit), using reich-wing language like "pro-LGBT propaganda", implying LGBT is le western culture even though historically every place in the world had their own unique queer culture that the western world has violently destroyed because "it's against human natoor and a crime committed against nature"
though tbf even i felt the pro-lgbt message in qatar felt a bit forced
this guy is anything but a comrade imo, especially with him expressing his wishes for a religious caliphate with religious laws.
here’s his comments section, for what it’s worth (cw: reactionary bile, it is a steam comment’s section after all)
i wonder what all the pro-lgbt/lgbt-neutral muslims here have to say about this
EDIT: fixed an image
it’s still dumb to conflate social progressivism (queer rights and womens rights) with usanian imperialism
queer people like me in the global south, particularly in muslim-majority countries are forced to flee their own homeland because of this, because they’d rather see our heads on a pike than leave us alone and live. even without the conflation with usanian imperialism, some of them try to use religion to try justify this and demonize us.
I’ll never understand the anti-gay argument that it’s against human nature. You can’t say other animals aren’t gay, Sea Lions and Giraffes and Bonobos have plenty of gay sex, Rams too, why is the line drawn at humans? Like it goes beyond HUMAN nature, it’s literally just nature
Even in a vacuum, “human nature” arguments for individuals make very little sense against things humans already do or want to do. Here we have humans which are pretty natural doing that very same thing, so in order for them to not obey “human nature” they’d need to have been influenced by space aliens or something.
Obviously Nazis effectively already believe that, but it’s odd how “well meaning” libs often fall into that same trap.
Sea Lions and Giraffes and Bonobos have plenty of gay sex, Rams too, why is the line drawn at humans?
probably because we’re supposed to be “better, intelligent and more civilized than animals”, whatever that means 🙄🙄🙄
Might be because the reactionary version of human nature is the official kind of human nature of the west during early to mid capitalism, which is then universalised. Not only are they not considering your point, they’re also ignoring that fact that for most of human history, it’s been ‘human nature’ to be quite gay. Or at least to be very close roommates.
Well that sucks. Guess I extrapolated more from a game about taking out IDF soldiers than I should have.
Fallout 3 and New Vegas maybe fit, can definitely choose to gun down a lot of Americans. Feels good
Can’t believe spec ops the line was suggested just once
Wolfenstein: The New Colossus and Fursan al-Aqsa. There’s also Soldier of Fortune: Platinum Edition, while you do play as a PMC chud, you do get to fill up the morgues of NYC with neo-Nazis in two chapters with two Boers as the main villains. Also from the word go, you do at least get to remove a Nazi’s face with a SPAS-12 at point-blank.
And sometimes even Minecraft when some kid builds a definetely not a swastika next to the Ukrainian flag in their base, so you spawncamp them and steal all their diamonds.
