I had a friend at school we liked the same things but he went off in the fash direction and i went off in the commie direction.
I went down the Tim Curry to communist pipeline and he went down the "ironic" fascist to actual fash pipeline.
Clearly the anti commie themes were completely lost on me cos i thought it was rad as fuck
My introduction was Call of Duty 2, and I mean like the original CoD 2 released in 2005. I just thought the soviets were bad ass for protecting their homes and I knew the nazis were evil cuz they were racist invaders. It all just made sense
and look at me now 
Lmao I sorta had the same experience with World at War and the Stalingrad missions.
Libs: "The commies shot their own guys!!!" (myth) 14 year old me: Sick, that's badass
Treyarch tryna tell me the red army was bad for executing surrendering nazis (probably ahistorical) and I'm like "I dunno boss, kinda based, probably doin' 'em a favour, can't imagine being a pow in Russia was that pleasant for a nazi"
Not the soviets, but
Same. I played the first two Call of Duty games as a kid when they were released and immediately understood the Soviets to be on the right side fighting against the evil Nazi war machine. I could see they made the greatest effort and sacrifice to turn the tide, take Berlin, and end the war.
A few years later and I had a flag of Soviet Union hanging in my room.
hell yeah comrade, I bought an ushanka after playing 2
