I haven't played the game but I heard that it turns out that your character has been brainwashed in the MKULTRA program and you can choose to turn on the CIA and defect to the Soviet Union

lol as soon as i heard you could side with the soviets i figured it'd end with you nuking the world because the ussr isn't allowed to be shown as anything other than absurd, over the top villains

You need to watch Queens Gambit. Really refreshing cold war stuff where the American players learn from the Soviet collectivist style and the soviet players are shown to be honorable dudes

but they are America’s nukes. Lol no shit this is a quote about defending putting neutron bombs in every European capital secretly

Ours are for defense not offense! Can’t you tell the difference?

Plot wise it would have made more sense to just leak the proj. Greenlight intel to the European countries to sway them over. Guess they really couldn't help themselves. I also think its funny that people are refering to the canon ending as the 'good ending'. You literally get used, brainwashed and killed by the cia.

I got into a Twitter fight with a lib just the other day who was ADAMANT that Castro wanted to nuke the US. I asked for a source and they just said "uh, look up the Cuban Missile Crisis, idiot"

These people will twist reality to fit their preconceived notions. You could say "of Cuba staining nukes on their territory meant they wanted to nuke America then the US putting nukes in Turkey meant we wanted to nuke the USSR" and they'd probably just say "yes".
