I like Tuabman and I like diversity in my games but I hate the implication that the USA is sufficiently not fascist and white supremacist to have her as a leader.

in the civilization universe, all civilizations are a blank slate that start during the early agrarian era. They don't yet pick an ideology or colonize others or do anything at that point. Also, in civ 7 she can be the leader of any civilization, leaders aren't bound to specific civs

That's how I justify it to myself at least, it falls apart upon any introspection but that's how it goes with a silly 4x game with hammers and beakers

"fascism is just more industrial resource and nothing else!!!" i do not like modern civ games

I agree it should have some type of penalties, but it’s hard to implement fascism if you aren’t willing to include dirty historical realities like genocide and ethnic cleansing and colonialism.

I understand why Civ doesn’t want to allow naziboos to roleplay as a genocidal maniac in their game

then don't implement fascism as a playable option shrug-outta-hecks

[–] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 3 points 18 hours ago

Then we will lose communism as a playable option. The moment Firaxis removes fascism the “both sides” whining will be overwhelming

Yeah for sure I don’t actually object to this.
