here’s some more video game PC revisionist history bullshit.
Battlefield is supposed to be historically accurate?
I don’t know about Battlefield, but older WW2 games, the kind I played as a youth in order to distract myself from how much everything sucked, paid great attention to historical accuracy. Everything looked and felt like WWII, including, by the way, women and black soldiers fighting in settings where they actually fought. In an old Medal of Honor there were black soldiers in the Battle of the Bulge levels because the military was desegregated for that battle. And women were Russian snipers and were in the French resistance. I don’t get the need to lie about history and I hate fake history. I’m a big history buff.
Yes, women were in the military but they were not in roles designated for combat. But again, it’s a video game, and it doesn’t have to reflect historical accuracy.
It should. I find revisionist history to be quite sickening. Call of Duty WWII took it way too far and decided to portray Nazi Germany as a place tolerant of racial diversity. That’s sickening and dangerous to me. It’s a great example of how stupid other people are. The people that would be offended by there not being black soldiers in the German army are stupid, and the people that think women with robot metal arms fought in WWII are also stupid. I just feel like a total alien on this planet.
