  • Do you not remember the time Shigeru Miyamoto destabilised a small African nation in order to send in send in his private security force (they have little goomba helmets it’s adorable!) to overthrow the government and take over under the guise of being a “peacekeeping” force and then proceeded to force all the inhabitants to work in their factories making Amibos, or tortured the most agregious dissenters by forcing them to work as game devs??

    It was pretty big news at the time.







  • After Russia brutally suppressed their independence, then sent 10 million of them off to die to protect Russians. Which you keep wilfully ignoring.

    Ukrainians didn’t want to be under Russian rule. It’s wild the mental gymnastics you’re doing to excuse Russia allying with Hitler himself to steal foreign land. So I’ll say again, the fact those regions were mistreated under Poland does mean it’s okay to invade them and colonise them.

    Like you can find examples of time were colonial countries “”“liberated”“” foreign nations in much the same way, putting them under a different boot and treating them marginally better than the last guy. But if a colonial apologist gave you that argument you would (rightly) not accept it, would you?
