Because Hoi4 autists will make up the new batch of political leaders, chud. The oppresion of the gamer will end
Plagued /r/TNOmod and the Reddit HOI4 modding community - When a subreddit for a video game mod turns to utter insanity

This is actually somewhat plausible considering the people who get into politics had a passion for it since they were kids. HOi4 did a lot to introduce politics to so many gen z autists.

I wonder if I will ever become a political leader one day. Neon Genesis Evangelion will be an entire field of study, and Tokyo Night will be the national anthem, it will be glorious man, I tell ya

Redux is a collection of autists inserting their own submods with some minor form of quality control. In terms of what is allowed, not that the trees are actual trash, they're all far from the opposite. Kaiserreich is one of those overly byzantine mods where the team behind it is full of so much bloat it becomes inefficient.

And in TrooNO the thing is more integrated so every tree must be in perfect sync with all the other countries of the world otherwise the game will not work. And the revolving door of developers at TNO means everyone has their own vision so they spend all their time rewooorking in a never ending loop.

Kaiserredux has people making things for countries they want to make with relatively little oversight, Kaiserreich I think has some goofy bureaucratic process that grinds any desire to do something to a halt.

Mod teams like tno tend to get sacked into feature creep and keep adding shit without finishing it. It's way worse with other mods it plagues all of the pdx games
What is the backstory of the hoi4 mod developer and how did he come to get state funding.

Grisha while not the developer himself was the one who was paid to promote it, he came to prominence after he streamed an MD game from the Wagner HQ in St. Petersburg and caused a huge stir in the HOI4 community because of it. He was later interviewed by Russian State media about his streaming which of course caught the attention of the state itself. How exactly he got this funding is something I can’t say for certain but it’s something I’ve heard being thrown around by Grisha himself and the Russian HOI4 Modding Commhnity.
Fun fact, Grisha has personally met up with Prigozhin himself and streamed himself crying after finding out about his death.

this guy is such a dork, he cries about prigozhin dying but then takes funding from those who killed him

You have to respect him for being the most employed and successful HOI4 streamer though. Bokoen crosse dresses on stream, TommyG does the usual German autism, while this stereotypical slav is squatting in some minor government job getting paid to do fuck all.

And he's only 18, a very successful zoomer autist indeed

Damn what a chad. No wonder Hoi4 redditors hate him so much.

Pretty sure That Photo of him with Prigozhin was if i recall taken inside what was left of a Cafe (Or taken shortly after somewhere else, regardless it was in relation to this) that Prigozhin owned and had been bombed by the National Republican Army, A Military Blogger got killed along with the injuring of around 40 or so people.
Wouldn't surprise me if the guy is Ignorant on Prigozhin's death, Then again, even if he was fully aware, the guy ain't going to be getting very far by complaining, especially about the Russian Government.

Really he kinda doesn't have a choice, he essentially burned every single possible bridge with Paradox and every western HOI4 YouTuber by becoming a Russian propaganda mouthpiece, and any meaningful opposition in Russia to Vladimir Putin is either dead, missing, in prison, or left the country so there's no point in speaking out on Prigozhin's death.

Spotted another drip of BTWH 'content' - a full list of their subideologies, something which you'd think would only be shown in a proper teaser with icons as is done by most other mods (and apparently this was the original plan according to posts from years ago), but which they're now just posting with very short summary descriptions on their dying public Discord. Along with the fact that they've gone without an American teaser for more than a year as of this writing and have continued to lose 'devs', I'll consider this to be another tacit admission that the mod isn't going anywhere.
Some oddities that immediately stick out to me are the multiple repeated ideologies (for instance there's 2 different versions of Managed Democracy, 3 of Military Paternalism and 4 of Cultural Nationalism scattered all over the spectrum - like I get that maybe you'd want to distinguish more conservative military governments from the liberal or apolitical/super-pragmatic ones or socialist-tinged black and Chicano nationalism from the Hotep/NOI types, but surely you could look at a thesaurus for new names). Two kinds of Neoliberalism in the same ideological bracket for some reason, but no neocons. A unique subideology for a UN invasion force (lmao) which is not even supposed to have a high chance of spawning. MacArthur's name being slapped onto the most brutal, war-crime-prone and mega-racist militarist subideology even though the man himself was neither particularly monstrous nor racist for his time period (their excuse was that this slander was caused by the far-right killpeopleist generals appropriating his name after his presidency/death, but it frankly would've made a lot more sense to call it something like the 'Walker Doctrine' since Mac himself lived until 1964 and almost certainly would've objected to his name being attached to Jim Crow/anti-black exterminationism while he's still breathing), and so on.

Not going to start a poltical argument or discussion but after seeing the TNO devs give the commies dozens of subideologies but only four for the Nazis in a mod where the Germans win WWII I assumed the devs of BTWH would be very similar, but seeing them include some fairly obscure figures from the American Far Right like Willis Carto or Joseph Tomassi was very surprising. Broken clocks really are correct two times a day.

Beneath all the gay commie wankery, the BTWH team is (or rather was, it seems like everyone who did actual work has left/been expelled over the years) occasionally capable of coming up with concepts that actually seemed fun & interesting, like Jim Jones trying to become basically the Pope & shadow-ruler of the revolutionary California Federation. It was these little flashes of good ideas which drew me to the mod in the first place all those years ago. Unfortunately, any such burst of inspiration is quickly buried under a mountain of retardation/drama/inactivity, so yeah.
Ages ago Chavez & his UFW union was shown off in a 'Burning California' teaser, as a possible splinter faction based in the San Joaquin Valley (presumably with the Latino farmers forming the backbone of his army) from the above-mentioned Califed in case they collapse under the weight of internal divisions & the attacks of Nationalist California (their right-wing rival).
However these teasers were from years ago, and the devs have mentioned a lot has changed since then. The WRA is no longer led by Solanas but rather Hanoi Jane for example, and Hal Moore no longer has his own faction (that Fort Ord Clique based in Monterey & Santa Barbara) or even his own path in NatCali - a shame because he's probably the only guy who deserved to have a major ex-Confederate-named US military base named after him in the recent round of lame & gay renamings. It wouldn't surprise me if they axed the UFW or changed them for the worse too, the mod's not even out and the devs have already spent more time rewooorking what little content they've coded than actually getting any new work done to my knowledge. They scrapped the New England demo back when they were throwing out the CHAZ leader even though it was literally the only time they had enough content for a real dev diary that isn't just about lore, as another example of this retarded tendency of theirs & many other failed modders too.
