    Left image: hot, showcases human beauty and a warrior’s strength, incorporates historical armor design enough to be respectful

    Right image: offputting, uncanny valley vibes, offensive disregard for historical armor design.

    I’m horny as hell but who would seriously prefer the fake armor and lack of strength and personality in the right image to the humanity, strength, and dignity of the left image, not to mention the superior armor design?

    I don’t think these weirdos are actually sexually interested in women. Unironically, they should just sell their multi thousand dollar gaming computers and buy a high quality sex doll instead. They’d be happier, and every woman who has the misfortune of having to encounter them would be happier too.

    So all the escalations and violence from NATO that preceded the official start of the war don’t count?

    If you do a thing that you know is going to lead to war then you’re starting the war. And NATO knew its brinkmanship with Ukraine was very likely to force Russia’s hand – analysts across the political spectrum were screaming it for years trying to sound the alarm. The mistake they made was assuming NATO would care to avoid war.

    NATO led Ukraine into war, has fed Ukrainians into the abattoir of Russian artillery, sabotaged peace talks, and just generally clearly gives 0 fucks about Ukrainian lives.

    The books and the games are actually quite good, there’s a reason they got so big in Poland. See this synthesis of other comments:

    “It must have been really hard for gamers to do that side quest where Geraldo of Rivia says racism is bad.”
    “Or when Ciri is canonically bisexual. Or how the Witcher 2 is about a guerilla movement for national liberation.”
    “I feel like “Geralt turns to the camera and says ‘the real monsters are cruel and intolerant men’” happens in a good ten percent of the quests, both side and main.”

    I don’t think Andrzej Sapkwoski is explicitly leftist but the stories would get ripped apart by the anti-woke crowd if they were first released today instead of in the 80s, and no I don’t think this is just cope to defend a story I found deeply meaningful. Geralt’s character arc in the original short stories and books is about going from a jaded bitter individualist “why should I ever stick my neck out for anyone else” to “I will fucking eviscerate anyone from the dominant social group who tries to pogrom these ethnic minorities”.

    Chuds just have exactly 0 media literacy skills so they see white man and think “omg he’s just like me” when his position in society is actually to be persecuted, scapegoated, and given the shittiest of shit-work to the point where he multiple times has to go into the shit-filled sewers just to earn money for food.

    I mean I had no interest in the Netflix show because it looked horribly done, not because Big Woke woked all over it or whatever the chuds said
