i love wart hunder

I'm confused how they got from: "they put ads on this blogger who tests illegal guns" to "they are funding Ukrainian rebels" Am I supposed to inherently know this guy is some sort of rebel leader or something?

The vlogger is believed to be relatively close to the Russian/separatist equipment pipeline for him to be receiving the military equipment that he is showing off. His recent videos (which are separate from the Warthunder series of videos he was paid to produce) have been found to be recorded in area occupied and used by separatist forces.

Now if only we can get Syrian rebels funded by Activision....

Boko Haram, brought to you by EA

Wouldn't really impact EA's image among gamers.

They already nabbed that Wolf Cola endorsement deal so I think they're set

Damn. Aren't the world of warships/tanks guys also Russian?

Wargaming inc is Belarusian.

This article is making me appreciate WeeGee a lot right now (world of warships only dough)

Wargaming inc is Belarusian

That's a fancy way to say that they too are Russian

They're so insanely cucked for still sucking up to Putin's government. The relocation of their offices out of Russia coincided with new censorship laws so people speculate they were fearing legal consequences for the contents of their game.

Lmao hilarious.

Separating from Russia to some other country, or separating from some other country to Russia?

I don't feel like this phrasing is clear enough.

Cyprus-based video game developer, Gaijin Entertainment reportedly is funding pro-Russian rebels, terrorist groups in Ukraine through embedded third-party sponsorships and ads in YouTube content

Oh that kind of separatist.

Also sick dev name russian whitey.

Damn the Russian Bias is really getting meta.
