I know I sound like an absolute classic hipster right now who's bitching about their favourite band going mainstream and acting like it's ruined but I'm really feeling empathetic towards those guys right now. I bring up Ukraine because it was funny how everyone with access to an internet connection suddenly had an opinion on it even though they obviously couldn't point to it on a map much like with Israel-Palestine.
It was this sort of thing that got me pretty red pilled on the commentating crowd because even people who should have known better to shut their mouths and at least do some studying first had to pump out their videos to meet the demands of the stupid keyword algorithms.
Same thing is happening with Fallout now and all of a sudden the fucking hair twirlers are pretending they love Fallout and videos are going to be pumped out left and right talking about how amazing the Fallout games are just because it hit the trending pages. This wouldn't be such a bad thing by itself because it would fade off eventually but now you've got these fuckers who are going to sit there trying to flex to everyone who the biggest Fallout fan is.
You know it's going to happen with Warhammer and the shills will be out in force next right? We've all seen it coming but I feel like the Warhammer bullshit is going to sting particularly hard. These people don't fucking have hobbies so they've got to go and ruin everyone else's and that goes for the people who aren't leftists as well.
Ohhhh fuck no, I don't want to see all the cosplaying noooo it just entered into my head what they're going to do for Halloween :(
I think it's the instant total and subservient acceptance of the current thing. I'd bet the vast majority of people who post the Ukrainian flag have any idea about Ukraine or it's history. It's just what the good people on the tv do, so they do it. And then they double down whenever any dissenting voice springs up. They have to because their thoughts are so vapid that the only defense they have is making sure no defense exist that might make them feel bad.
I mean, all you need to know, and let's paraphrase the stunning and brave VP Kamala Harris here..."Russia is a big country, Ukraine is small, and Russia stole 40 Ukrainian cakes. And that's terrible."
