It's Yuri btw, if you really wanted to know.

And no THIS IS NOT READING THEORY.

    i've looked through the screenshots/artwork before, and as a lesbian himejoshi ML this feels kinda blasphemous.

    not because it's yuri or the fact that stalin and lenin are cute girls; but because how stalin and lenin have been portrayed as a character.

    for one, i feel like it should be the other way around - stalin falling for lenin, since that's what happened historically. stalin followed lenin. not the opposite.

    also spoilers but (CW: Mentions of Han-ing)

    one of the CGs involve "stalin" hanging "lenin" in a room full of other hanged women... for whatever reason... really repeating the lie that "stalin killed gajillions for funnies"

    .

    i like how the girls look, but honestly it just feels like they just made random ahhh girls, slapped the lenin-stalin name onto them, threw in a bunch of surface-level commie shit that libs think commies do and called it a day.

    like, this is how i expect a female lenin to look like, not whatever that is.

    hell even this one feels more accurate.

    one might argue that "it's not that deep", but i really wish people put a bit more effort before portraying historical figures and settings, to be at least a bit more accurate, instead of just making random girls with random traits and deciding "yup, they're lenin/stalin" somehow, despite having little connection other than the fact that they just read communist manifesto (and no other commie theory) all day and that they're wearing soviet-inspired uniforms... for some reason. even though i never seen lenin wear that ever.

      Sounds like this game is on the Grimes level of communist

          I was just remembering that time after elon and grimes had just split up, where she did a photoshoot of herself reading the communist manifesto while cosplaying as and elf wearing the skyrim thieves guild armour, before declaring that "it was a troll!" and going back to making music about the inevitability of an AI god.

          It was deeply unserious in a way that reminds me of this silly visual novel.

      And that still make this one of the most ambitious games ever made in genre.

      this is what a one small part of me in my mind palace labyrinth is saying in midst of the storm of pure psychic energies of the warp that's wracking me noggin still. Like if you're gonna make something absolutely brainrotting, at least make it accurate!

      edit: also jesus fucking christ that first spoiler, whoever made this should skip start and pokemon go straight to the gulag

        you're probably joking, but i'd actually love to see "brainrot material" that's actually accurate (esp. historically) and well thought-out for once. such things make for quality shitpost among your typical shitposts.

        lol literally what i thought when I saw this for the first time and digged a little deeper. mf needs to be re-educated fr.
