There's a quote that I swear TF I saw on CoD:WaW on the Xbox 360 that's always stuck with me but I can't find the source. I'm also sure I got a lot of false memory fucking up my ability to find it.

It goes: "Those who build the weapons of fascism will inevitably have those weapons used against themselves."

Where tf is that from? AI claims it's from Chomsky but I can't find it being directly attributed to him.

I recommend replaying WaW with a friend.

It has local co-op, so you both can torrent it and play together via the internet for free using a program like Hamachi.

Sounds like an adoption of this bible text. Basically a version of karma.

"Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword."

Not sure but prescient and also reminds me of "abyss gazing back"
