Forget BlackOps the main series was all scare mongering over Russian nationalism. They literally combine Limonov's national bolshevik party with Al Qaeda into a super boogeyman. As if bringing the Soviet Union back would be a bad thing for the world. More things reek about EA than its poo poo buisness practices.

Bringing the Soviet Union back under national bolshevik control would be a very bad thing, as they ain't communists, they're weird slightly lefter than Hitler himself, but not much, Russian Nazi types. And they insist that more of Asia needs to be under Russian control than was under their control during the Soviet years.

They're pretty lovely people.

If you're gonna call him Chomsky you could at least acknowledge the response Chomsky always gives to this criticism: he is a citizen of the U.S. and he feels his primary duty lies in criticizing his own government.

And that response is stupid as gently caress if you actually stop to think about it for 5 minutes.

I thought that there was already an ideology that was supposed to be about the left and the right uniting against liberal democracy and it was called fascism.

Not really, as fascists despise the left, and the "left wing" parts of say the Nazis tended to only a little leftist on economic policy and completely rightist on everything else.
