There was a WW2 bomber flyover today 'to honour the veterans' and my immediate reaction was 'if I had fought in WW2 I wouldn't want to be reminded of that shit' which rapidly turned into both of them attacking me for not respecting veterans. They both would say they're socialists.

    Compromise: Americans and Brits can keep flying their WW2 bombers for Veteran's Day, but the nose art has to be changed to an antifa catgirl smashing Hitler's skull in and all decals must be replaced with :gold-antifa:

      There was a big controversy in the game War Thunder when they added a modern Japanese helicopter and the playerbase was thoroughly divided on whether or not the company should add an anime girl livery like from this picture

      It would have been hilarious to piss off a playerbase that is at least 20% werhaboos.

        They ended up doing it. It’s a game I enjoy playing. Has its flaws but so does every other mmo

          I haven't played in a while because my flight stick configuration is in linux and I've been in windows for some other stuff a lot.

          I love hanging out in air sim flying some WWII war birds desperately trying to energy fight some BF109's and often failing at it when i'm out-turned by a werhaboo.

              I'd have to start over on the japanese tree or put money into it for the premium tree. I need to work on the russian or chinese tree but my most developed tree is the US because those are the warbirds I know the best.

              I mainly fly the p-47 due to the crazy guns and ability to dive.
