The commie suckups at the USA tech giants have censored all searches (including in the good ole USA) for "Tank Man" from the Tiananmen Square protest/massacre on behalf of the Chinese Communists.

No, this is not satire.

A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

The famous pic showed up right away for me using 'Tianamen Square Tank Man' using Google images.

Interesting how when these cases of censorship are brought into the light, they always get blamed on "human error".
Government is not the solution to our problem—government is the problem.   Ronald Reagan
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.   Thomas Jefferson
During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.   George Orwell  The truth is quiet...It's the lies that are loud.   Jesus Revolution
If you ever find yourself in need of a safe space then you're probably going to have to stop calling yourself a social justice warrior. You cannot be a warrior and a pansy at the same time   Mike Adams (RIP Mike)

Communism was a pretty big human error, so I guess that explanation checks out.   :-"

Well, yeah. They fixed it, right?

This should have been in R&P, which is locked for the time being, so this thread will now be too.
