Lol it's not even out yet and people are already doing "acshually Napoleon was bad" discourse.

    I feel like Napoleon is solidly in the kind of zone where if you have any personal feelings on him that arent analytical of history, you're a freak.

    Oh you love Napoleon? Freak.

    You HATE Napoleon? Get someone better to hate lmao, freak.

      I can understand why Haitians would despise him at least.

      Trying to reintroduce slavery is kind of a dick move.

        Yeah I mostly meant like, if someone is a westerner and hates him for being a tyrant or doing a lot of wars and other shit like that, cause literally every "greatest king/ruler" of every european country is likely to be the guy that did war the best.

      His Haiti takes were shit, but he had good hat game and I'll forgive him a lot for kicking the shit out of Habsburgs and Prussians.

      But I wish he'd stayed under Robespierre's thumb (he was close friends with his brother). That corrupt nonce Barras fucked his formative ideology up.
