Oh fuck off with this JK Rowling "Actually, Dumbledore was gay!" shit

The fun thing is I was yelling about this years ago; Nick and Nora are American war criminals and Beth portrays them as a happy little couple in a happy little leave it to beaver suburb instead of actually engaging with the story. Coming out and claiming "akshually we intended this all along!" just confirms that they were cowards who understood what they were doing but didn't have the balls to make the MC a war criminal.

The War Veterans Hall in FO4 has a document saying "oh we are so eager to hear Nate talk"

So yes, he absolutely was megaHitler

The intro to Fallout 4 showed definitively that BGS does not fucking understand the meaning of "war never changes"

Like, it could have been something like "Nate was stationed at Anchorage during the actual events of Operation Anchorage" or something innocuous like that

But no, it's literally one of the defining moments of the series

A moment which establishes how fucked up the US is

And just gleefully pointing and being like "That's you", as if that's something cool

Fucking wizards pooping on the floor and teleporting it away
