    But what happens if people vote for Communism ?

    Classic examples Eisenhower cancelled the South Vietnam elections when it was realised, people were going to vote for Ho Chi Minh. While in Iran The US had the elected Government which was left leaning, kicked out and replaced by the Shah.

    Things are not always black and white

    They're making references to the Fallout video games which are predicated on the United States and Communist China destroying each other in a jingoistic pointless nuclear war. The quotes are recited by a gigantic "Iron Giant"-esque nuclear-grenade throwing robot called Liberty Prime who is used by the hero to eradicate the Neo-Nazi-esque Enclave.

    Which Liberty Prime believes are communists.

    Note: The Enclave are the last remnants of the fascist US government who destroyed the world for double points.

    We're quoting a video game that was stuck in the 50s.

    Speaking of which...

    Where do commies live? On coops, of course. This is not a coincidence.

    About the only thing the Crystal Skull got right was its handling of the Cold War.

    "The Communists, at least under Stalin, are very-very bad people but the USA is not exactly rising to the Platonic ideal of the hero."

    Technically it's Nik, not Nick.

    Nick Rostu is a good example of a character with the other spelling though.:D

    Jello must be outraged that such important Core world dignitaries would go unnamed while Rimworld rebel scum get backstories!

    Well, actually, a surprisingly large amount of the strike team comes from the Core, but Jello has never let facts stop him before. Plus, some are Corellians, and I think those are not true Scotsmen Core Worlders.

    It is a well known fact that Jabba is actually Santa. Just listen to him laugh.

    Every family has its black sheep. And they all join the Rebellion.
