Similarly, the IRA managed to assassinate Lord Mountbatten on his boat

Compelling strategic argument from former Tunisian general on Hezbollah' -and by extension, the resistance- guerilla strategy of escalation. "Nothing ever happens" is carefully considered.

As agonizing as it is, I'm inclined to agree making the confrontation more direct wouldn't necessarily improve the situation. Clearer minds need make difficult decisions.

At this point I call it for the racism it is: "They're just so fundamentally stupid they're going to keep doing stupid tactics that have been proven historically to not work. They can't figure out their own oppression nor how to resist it, that I, the coddled western whelp I am, can conceive of from a safe distance"

I dunno, I think I get it, projecting yourself into things you enjoy is a natural part of experiencing them. It's like, part of the exchange of reading, at least in my experience. Like, who here can say they didn't watch Lord of The Rings and imagine who they would like to be in Middle Earth. Perhaps the treatbrain theory goes too far here, chud avatars notwithstanding.

Got bored of Tarkov PvE and I've been revisiting some strategy games, playin some Company of Heroes 2, bought the Ardennes assault dlc on sale and now I seethe at every cutscene about the -oh so heroic Yanks and their toils- while I had to grimace my way through the main campaign which constantly villainized the very Soviets you were playing as, fighting against the fuckin Nazis who barely get any mention or condemnation.
