Steam isn't new to allowing controversial games on its marketplace, but a line may have been crossed with "Squad 22: ZOV."

Also remember: USA and Israel are infinitely worse.

Abriael2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

What you just said is literally insane.

Palitera2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Not really. These two countries are worse by almost any metric you could use in this context. War, genocide, imperialism, invasions, media control by corporations, war culture, the list goes on.
Glad to see these two cancer countries falling quick haha
Ok, Israel not so much, but soon.

Abriael2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@Palitera: You obviously know nothing of the history of russia. I suggest getting an education. There is no country in the world that has historically caused as much tragedy to other countries and its own people alike, and continues to do so to this very day.

Whataboutism is disgusting.

DustMan2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Russia killed 9 million of their own civilians alone during WW2. With these deaths primarily due to a combination of forced collectivization, purges, famines, and the Gulag system.

Now they've let a quarter million of their people die in a war nobody understood.

So much better than the USA. By all means go ahead and sing Russia's praises. Praise communism. Fool.

If the USA is so bad, then what's your country's excuse for not bringing any earth-shattering technologies to the market in the 20th or 21st century? The USA is the birthplace of Reich's legendary cloudbuster device which can end droughts in almost every part of the world when used properly, and said device will eventually come to market of course, but the USA is the "infinitely worse" enemy according to you despite Americans' jaw-dropping innovations.

In terms of what we actually brought to market, besides the electric guitar and the television and the airplane and mass production of the automobile, and AC power grids, we also invented the internet (TCP/IP/DNS) which you are utilizing right now to ironically publish criticism of America.

AuraAbjure2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@ Palitera Okay Israel is literally at war right now with all their surrounding nations but somehow Israel is doing better than the US when the US is not at war with anyone. That makes sense.

All sarcasm aside, the March 21st, 2024 stampede in El Paso, Texas showcased how desperate a hundred foreign nations are is to live in the beautiful USA. With that being said I recommend you stick to your day job and drop being a political pundit.

People bringing up Russia killing it's own people but aren't going to bring up the millions that died during slavery alone in the U.S.???

fr0sty1d 20h ago (Edited 1d 20h ago )

It's entirely possible to call out all of them for their crimes. No need for whataboutism.

cluclap1d 18h ago

@abriael, idk, funding genocides, killing its own politicians, allowing corporate ceos decide the fate of government programs, oh and um SLAVERY. I gotta say the US is pretty crappy.

TheLigX1d 18h ago

Ukraine has stated that they want to be the “Israel of Europe”. These Asmongold worshipping Azov Nazis all love genocide. There’s no reasoning with them.

No, they helped defeat the Nazis during WW II. You're the one with memory problems Metroid.

Abriael2d ago

And replaced them in half of Europe with equally murderous dictatorships. Such help. 🤔

MetroidFREAK212d ago

Are we in that time period now? Do we live in the past? No modern day Russia can rot

BeHunted2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Remember, No Russians

TheLigX1d 18h ago (Edited 1d 18h ago )

Nah, fuck NATO and Israel.

Russian invaders can go fuck themselves.

Palitera2d ago

Any invaders, right?
Israel invaders, USA invaders, mercenary invaders... Right?

Abriael2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

If your only argument when one denounces evil is to say "but there are other evils too!" you're either arguing in bad faith or you need to take a long, cold, hard look at your values.

MDTunkown2d ago

@Abriael
Law can only work if everyone following them but if one side continues to break them for their own benefits then other’s won’t follow if they have power not to follow them, it’s a zero sum game.
You literally expecting other to act against their own interests and then trying to shame them with “bad faith and values” that’s not how things works.

Abriael2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@MDTunkown: only, no one is talking about laws here. We're talking about a murderous regime that has no equal in the scale of its crimes in the world right now, literally sponsoring a game to directly and very much admittedly indoctrinate children to send them to kill Ukrainians or be killed in Ukraine, on top of telling a disgusting story in which Ukraine is the aggressor and russia is defending itself, with ukrainians attacking ambulances with drones and similar falsehoods. This also has no equal in the world right now.

Here's an example that the developers of this trash game so proudly show: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Your whataboutism is disgraceful.

Palitera2d ago

No, Abriael. The problem (for you) is that I'm against WAR and this puts the bigger target at the biggest warmongers of all. A nation so militarized that they kill their own children in schools, because guns are love. So stupid they believe their own lies and think they are pacifists. And yet, they are waging proxy or direct wars in almost the entirety of their (fortunately) soon to be over history. Enjoy the fall, sugar. Bye.

@Abriel
You are talking out of your rear end. Yes, the Russian war is brutal, but remember this, Russia has never been the country to cause crimes around the world. You seem to be mistaken here because America and Europe are the true enemies of the world.

Both have been involved in countless regime change missions around the world. The destruction of many countries and their people. From the crusades, to slavery, to so-called war on terror, to the WMD lies to enter Iraq, and many more. Russia pales in comparison.

Do not stop there. Also say, USA, EU, and Israel invaders must go fuck themselves as well. If not, then you're just another hyprocrite. You only care because a "white" country is being invaded. But when America, Israel, and Europe invades non-white nations, clowns like you are silent in approval.

TheLigX1d 18h ago

Seems that you get your world view from Marvel movies lol.

rlow12d ago

Let me guess…….this game is how Russia really wanted the war to go…….

TheColbertinator2d ago

Most FPS games are propaganda anyway. The US military bets big on Call of Duty for one.

Abriael2d ago

Imagine comparing apples with brontosaurs.

BeHunted2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

? The US military doesn't fund or endorse Call of Duty.

Gibreel872d ago

Then you must live under a rock. The US military endorses and consults Activision in regards to Call of duty in exchange to access to equipment, personnel and marketing.
They directly and indirectly influence scripts and content of those games. Also movies like Top Gun are nothing but propaganda as well.
