    I love how one of the us army subreddit mods has “democracy is non-negotiable” in German as their user flair. It’s just way too on the nose

    If in doubt, or in danger of seeming glaringly ignorant of what a story tried to tell you, just chant “death of the author!” :so-true:

    I remember thinking seriously that the Helgast from Killzone were cool because their uniforms were dope. I never thought that playing Wolfenstien for the record, my point being that I just thought looking cool somehow handwaved away evil. My little PS2 brain thought it cool and tough being a stormtrooper. I was a dumb kid.

    The more I think about it the entire Killzone narrative falls apart. Didn’t the UCA terracide all of Helghan at the end of 3? That’s like a turbo space war crime right?

      The Galactic Empire had more striking and memorable uniforms than the Rebel Alliance to my dumb kid brain, too. :liberalism:
