Libs are angry maddened about it, as expected.

When you point out that this is no different from all those US military propaganda games, they are quick to bring up that this is uniquely evil because it covers a currently active war. As if there weren't a bajillion military games set in the Middle East during the "War on Terror". picard

They truly have a selective memory.

This is why it's getting harder for me to see a point in talking to these people; the fact that they're unable to see the double standard makes it feel pointless. Unless the media tells them to see it that way, they won't. You and I can point it out to them, but unless they read an article about it and they feel like it's coming from someone more intelligent than them, they won't hear a word of it; never mind that they have a brain of their own they can use to think with; they've decided to delegate the thinking function to people they consider smarter; the reasoning, the history, the context, etc., none of this matters, the only thing that matters is hearing it from someone they consider smart.

Usually they see the double standard but say "you're just a Russian/Chinese bot doing whataboutism" and "at least we have freedum unlike those inherently evil [BAD COUNTRY]'s people"
