Image transcription: A YouTube comment on a video on Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. The comment, by Diego Sosa, reads: “Hello everyone, I’m a centrist liberal and let me say that the first Wolfenstein is too damn hard and I can’t get past the first level. The enemies won’t listen to my reasoned discourse on why their ideology is flawed and just shoot me to death. I have a lot of weapons at my disposal, but killing the Nazis would make me as bad as them. Does anyone have links to a walkthrough that would allow me to keep the moral high ground?” End transcription.

As the great war hero, Neville Chamberlain, once said, “The Nazis are perfectly reasonable people. Just give them 90% of everything they want, and we can all be friends. They promised they would only do a little genocide on the weekends. No big deal.”

They said they want “Lebensraum”. I dont know what that is but it sounds like some sort of root vegetable, so I say, just let them do their thing.

Nor can you join the Eden’s Gate cult in Far Cry 5 no matter how hard you try.

The game presumes the player is beyond consideration of less violent options.

I wonder if it’s a coincidence that the liberal that kept American from joining the side of Nazis was closer to a social democrat than a neoliberal (except for all the racism)
