as to the regards of political propaganda in games ?
or bf games ?
1942 had none, no campaign to sell a narrative.
Vietnam, was historical, no propaganda basically except from generally accepted historical views, no political propaganda narratives
2 no narrative, officially, but I would say DICe had to have some contacts regarding possible future events from people that you generally wont access if youre not a 'state employee'.
2142 if you will did contain mild globalwarmist stuff, but so much into the impossible to know future, that it was just something to make something to resemble battlefront 2 and space ship boarding etc. If you will, it already was political activism.
bfbc2 camapign was plain russophobia, murricans saving the planet from evil bad russians. 2010. (western hostility toward Russia was evident clear as day as of 08.08.08)
bc 3 didnt play
bf 4 Obama 'pivot to Asia' the campaign being basically about hypothetical meddling in Chinese internal affairs, classical propaganda hit piece. (2013 ?)
bf 1 I had no expansions played/bought so I dont know, except that there were racist overtones - I as central European do not have a state that has colonial exploitation, slavery, as the modus operandi, currently same colonialism is applied to my country by freedom-loving corporate West. But the media is in western hands and they all cry in unison Russia bad ! Considering they are foreign entities working for foreign, (evil) interest, against ours and our future, I understand their motives, but they are not good. Pushing an ideology that seeks to make us feel inferior to the West and bow to their cultural colonialism is an insult nonstop. Some would call it meddling in internal affairs. Pouring of western elites guilt on us easterners as some universal enslavement technique is hollow.
bf 5 politically was a show of nihilism. Empty from the inside, full of it on the outside 🙂 I mean, sure, some people love to throw nihilism as an insult, against their opponents when arguments run out.
What I want to say is, that I would generally like to say that it is always those rich who can never fill themselves with enough money, act as a force for destruction. I guess that would be correct, but only partial answer. It is the masses of people who seem to either not want or not care between right and wrong, as long as they get to 'benefit', also not understanding that from doing evil, having a stance of emptiness, not caring about right vs wrong, not having a righteous moral order also with compassion for the sinner, not for the sin, ones own as well as others. To condone or say that it does not matter in your society is utterly wrong, because you do not live in a vacuum, where the wrongs done to others or to others dont affect you at all, because they do even if indirectly. You are thus responsible for yourself as well as for others especially when they do not understand what they are thinking/doing. When I do that, I try my best, but most people are not really understanding. They see me patronizing and trying to control them. Being completely unhinged and being told about whats good and not so good ? Is that not an act of you trying to help a person ? Like telling a young girl to control herself instead of suffering for her immature decisions while being around 15 when hormones work hard ? And I barely missed the thing, where western elites, like some Dr. Mengele want to sterilize children and do some terrible experiments like these new eugenicists that have no respect for life.
But, lets buy some media, like, all of them and tell the willing obedient masses that you have discovered some ''new' 'scientific' 'truths'', while at the same time denying that there is any Truth to begin with. Underlying motive then, is rebellion against God. Political ideologies as its offspring are just ambience. The real war is for your soul and where you will spend your eternity. Spirit of the world and Spirit of the Most High are not compatible. God changes things primarily on the inside, the worldly one does on the outside, on the surface. One is of Truth, the other is of appearance, illusions, timely. With such perspective, the most important freedom one needs is freedom from sin. The more one does bad, the more stained and scarred on the inside. After a time one might not even resemble oneself. And these things are not really of ones imagination, but of reality that is set apart from the physical, so-called 'real'. Truth did reveal itself, it was not 'scientifically' found. When Truth sets you free, from misconceptions and lies you fed yourself, or were fed, you will see why you are loved and that you are made because God loved you, because God did not create anything he hated. God is the God of freedom and of order. God does not force to obey, anybody. He respects your freedom that much. The world on the other hand, wants to enslave you, keep you in its merciless grip. God is merciful, just, the worldly world promotes the violent, instead of rightesou law they insiset on twisting in into a mockery, in their image. You are basically free to decide who you want to serve. If you will, you will find God, the Most High, Holy Trinity. In doing so, you will get to know that old snake and how he really hates you, you, made in the image of God.
One could say that I went off-topic, well, not quite. I did write some 'propaganda' if you will 🙂 it is just completely contrary to the worldly mainstream propaganda that would have you choked in hopelessness, fear, constraining your ability to think freely without shame. All one needs to do is look at who it is who preaches the so-called 'new' 'morals'. It is not people who suffered their whole lives because they believed in Truth by their deeds also, but generally people who are well off, who did not bother taking up their cross as a sign of salvation, instead choosing to run away from it.
I recently spoke to a person who teaches at a technical university, a cousin of mine and her 'friend', both PhD, not wed. My own title is not that, but I did spend 7 years in the university, so I am very familiar with many of either the professors or lesser guys that do much of the work with students.
I spoke indirectly to both of them, I claimed, to another person who tries to get a degree (we do not have expensive university by any means, your first one daily study is paid by the state)
I said, do not be under the impression that they teach wisdom there in the university. That PhD. guy did not say anything, but his body reacted, because I told that there are many 'titled debils'. You might make it through it, whether somebody constantly helps you or you jump in the groupthink. Writing your own work without anybody elses work is like near-impossible.
Especially when the whole system rejects you. You are strange, you question our ideas, 'we claim the same but we do otherwise'. We like obedience especially when logically unsound.
My time in university was time where I suffered immensely. I did not submit to morally reprehensible group, I was emotionally assaulted pretty much, all the time for standing up to what I believe is right. When I did not forgive those numbskulls, I responded with cold logic and basically disgust. They surely were below me, but I was thinking that I really did something wrong for them not accepting me. (at first, I did not understand that they could be that trashy as people) I was older than most of my roommates, I was actually interested in the subjects, I really wanted to learn. I did not do the thing for the academic title. I did have sometimes not so-correct exchanges with the teachers, who themselves were so afraid for their job that it screamed. I was in the political science department and there we did have some folks paid for by the US to spew some proper russophobia though. Majority of the teachers were however really top notch in my book. Non-ideological. Discussions with these were really heart-warming, apart from those US-owned apparatchiks at the helm of the institute, who werent people in search for fact, truth as best as possible, these were to fill an agenda and get a paycheck, sometimes on air in US-owned corporate propaganda media. So, there, was a so-called, former communist, who turned to a 'neo-communist'. I was once in his room in the university and above the door from the inside, high-up, there was a mockery, blasphemous, disgusting caricature of the Last Supper. Otherwise a great manipulator, this teacher guy. Not to teach others to use their own brain, only repeat what he says. He said otherwise. Said one thing, did another. He once bragged about his learned witchcraft abilities. Most students did not really get who this person was.
Witchcraft is of the evil, so when such a person preaches the so-called new morals, he has sold his soul for cheap. Truth does not matter to such a person. When you say that youre not interested in hoemongering or any unclean stuff in the student housing, that was when they started to pay attention, as if they were insulted. I was not one of them. And I did not group with anybody, had to do everything by 'myself'.
Ive had plenty of propaganda to listen to and question it., logically destroy it. This guy that I mentioned, was teaching 'climate change' how we were to give up sovereignty for this guys cult friends. He called the former Hungarian citizen, certain Gyorgy S. a philanthrope. Great. :D So much searching for truth by rejecting God in the first place.
That guy caused me most trouble, had me repeat a year, because I did not write to agree to his 'scientific' ideas. A year later, I had incredible amount of disgust for this person, so I let somebody else write that few pages of sheet for me, whatever, It was so generalist full of nothingburger. This is when you get ideology taught for fact, instead of fact. Ideology is trying to impose a worldview that has huge holes in it.
This is like me, a central or 'eastern' european, being told that white folks worldwide are responsible for slavery (undeserved guilt being thrown at me as well, lol) against other 'races', only non-white ones. I guess most of you know that contradiction in this is great. It comes from a viewpoint that sees race as some important determining factor and that races are only skin-color based. (something that for real-based nationality based on how one looks/speas is so much more than about color) This screams of an ideology that is based most likely on hatred and division to be based on skin color only. What fairy tales follow is not important. So, take , my context, these ideologues would want me to be enslaved by guilt for things that none of any of my relatives/ancestors or who knows what, ever did. No slavery, nothing. Yet these unruly people do not see their contradictions to reality a problem to start thinking that they are not actually in the right. What do these people do ? They double down, because they have to be right. If you do not agree or resist them, then they are insulted by your 'backwardness', or how they identify their own faults on others via projection. What is also more important, si that this ideology shows that whoever came up with it is really racist to the core, or wishes it to be a division issue. Subversion. It shows that colonial thinking there is very much alive, while claiming otherwise. This is when western european politicians come to us to 'enlighten' us with their hostile stupidity. It means also that they believe to be our superiors, betraying their message. They want colonies, servants, empires, but say that they are the opposite.
This university teacher was also telling us that we throw too much stuff into our rivers and that we have to get hyper eco-cultist. Because he said so. Because he teached/es at a university, his position gives much credence to what he says,because not everybody knows the reality of powermongering and other bs going on there like in politics, so much focus on academic appearance, but not in quality human interaction that does not impose boss vs serf mentality.
So, I do not have any river near myself, I do not throw or make much garbage at all. I do not buy things I do not need as well. That guy would tell me some other absurd reason why his cult needs to be listened to, because he is a member. And the endless notions of supposed problems that were never a problem ? A supposed solution to a supposed problem ? Yea, even get paid for that, get praised.
Whenever this guy started talking, I was really wondering, where did he learn that crap, who told him. A wicked and stupid person teaching decades at a university. There was nobody to tell him to get his head checked, so I understood this guy was just misled, so I tried to look at him as another person who simply got lost whether willingly or by error.
You can propagate truth, you can also propagate lies. Propaganda is only how. Not what. Deception is not necessarily 'propaganda', the message is, at least according to how I understand it.
