Being publicly traded means you don't follow any sort of ethics, mission statement, or even actual business metrics anymore, you chase incredibly toxic and self destructive short term profit over all else. Being private means they might be and to recover from their bullshit, especially since a death spiral for a corpo is centuries long apparently.
Ironically, by capitulating to Western conservatism they've almost certainly undermined their 'national identity' far more than if they actually asked themselves these questions. While i can't speak to Slovakia, Christian bullshit is antithetical to Western culture, so much so that they had to destroy (and kill the followers of) an uncountable number of native traditions and religions through the world (Europe included) to spread their nonsense.
I just want to point out that the terrorist organization known as Israel has openly and deliberately fired at American ships before. This could go absolutely crazy.
God, i wish the Nazis had the guts to just own up to it. It's endlessly annoying to watch then whine about people accurately identifying what they are.
I know fascists are incredibly stupid, but do they have a secret accelerationist pulling the strings? Starving the population is the thing that causes the big uprisings.
I was going to argue the practice bleeds away audiences, but i guess this was for kids tv and kids are both stupid and left with not a lot of options for tv.
The context surrounding a game is important, though. these are just Nazis and should have their opinion disregarded, but all of Nintendo's slop should be hated purely for the context of Nintendo being evil. any developer than stands for good things should also get a boost in positive reviews too (although that doesn't happen enough, maybe because the only ones i can think of off hand are just good regardless?).
It's pr 101 because any advanced class would tell you to keep it up anyway. If they take it down the validate the backlash. If they keep it up they can either undermine the backlash or ride it higher if there are less nazis than there are normal people. There is also a problem with taking it down: the nazis are kinda correct that Bethesda is anti nazi, Indiana Jones and Wolfenstein? Yeah, they demonstrably have no love for their ilk and cowering away from that won't help them.
That's really the worst news to come out of this whole event. Hopefully the folks down in naraka let him know full well what happened and why he's there.
The US is literally the last country anyone should want to ally with. We're almost certainly not going to assist anyone but Putin on the global stage and even that will run out of steam as we become the crisis if this course doesn't change.
