In full disclosure, I've yet to play this game and it'll probably be a while before I even think about buying it, but... Hasn't Russia always been the 'bad guys' in the Modern Warfare games?

Unless the game directly includes specific real-world figures or has an obvious parody of a real-world figure, the game is just having the bad-guys in a 'modern war' be the only other modern nation on the planet we'd ever conceivably go to war with.

Why wasn't the first Modern Warfare, or any of the others get review bombed for having the exact same subject matter?

Wasn't the whole 'No Russia' thing pretty much the peak of anything that could be considered 'anti-Russian?'

It was a lot more tactful in earlier games, in cod4 Russia was in a civil war caused by "Ultranationalists" who want to re-establish the soviet union.

"No Russian" in mw2 was everyone being played by Makarov, a CIA agent was infiltrating his terrorist cell, but since Makarov knew said agents identity he kills him at the end of the mission, that combined with speaking no russian made it look like the attack was done with support from the US, therefore giving Russia a legit casus belli to go to war. The biggest traitor in the game is also American.

And MW3 is just the straight up tieing all the threads to an end.

The issue with MW2019 is just how a real world term for a western war crime is being blamed onto russia, though i havent played the SP myelf since im not that interested in it, but from what can be seen its very black and white this time.

"Nazi-America anti-Russian propaganda"

what is the logic behind this string of words together as a thought?
