What fucking idiot greenlit that to be included in the festival in the first place? The fact that it needed to be protested and removed from the program is absurd.

Just Ukrainian? No...the civilized world is outraged.

To be fair, the world has always been behind on its support for Ukraine and opposition to Russia. In many ways, it's what got us where we are now, as America elected Obama over McCain, Germany had close ties to Putin and built the pipeline, the Sochi Olympics were not boycotted, the invasions of Georgia and Crimea were ignored, and so on.

Even now as Ukrainians call for Russian works to be boycotted, they become top sellers, as evidenced by video games like Atomic Heart and Space Marine 2.

Saber has a number of studios across the world but that game was developed by the Saint Petersburg studio. The same is true for the other games on the engine: MudRunner and SnowRunner, as well as World War Z.

Unfortunately you're not wrong. Thankfully I will say a large portion have woken up to the true bullshit of russia.
