    Has Blizzard gotten too woke?

    So I have recently come to a realization after posting on the forums and seeing people discuss the topic but this storyline sounds familiar.

    - Leader who is impulsive
    - Orders bombings while ignoring generals
    - "Allies" are telling that leader to calm down
    - Planet ending threat that this particular leader is ignoring and is using as a resource for war
    - Old gods whispering in peoples ears to drive them crazy

    Apply this to real life now!
    - Trump is impulsive
    - Makes military moves his generals disagree with
    - NATO allies are telling him to calm down and act more civil
    - Climate change is a threat but Trump ignores it
    - Russian disinformation campaign

    Is Blizzard trying to hard to incorporate real life elements into their fantasy MMO? Is that why this storyline feels forced because we are currently living through it!?!?!?

    10/10 for not posting this on a throwaway account and actually doing it on your main. With that said, that's reaching and insulting to compare Sylvanas to Trump. Now Garrosh on the other hand....
    "Why of course the people don't want war…. But, after all… it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."

    /reads title
    /checks thread expecting someone complaining about Soldier 76, basically all Allied Races leaders being female and Blizzard promoting more and more diversity
    /instead finds Sylvanas-Trump comparison bait thread

    I wonder how long this will stay up.

    Funny part is I seriously am not trolling and trying to figure out just how much real world politics are getting involved in this game. Azerite alone has clear comparisons to climate change. People want to stop using fossil fuel resources that come from the Earth but the leaders of all the countries say it is necessarily and take military action over it.

    This is what happens when you don't distract yourself with something. Go play or watch something and spare us more unecessary conspiracy theories.

    Had an entire thread planned in my head of who the world leaders in WoW could be.

    Jainas mom was Angela Merkel
    Anduin is Macron
    Bolivar is Xi Jingping
    Putin is N'Zoth

    This is what happens when you make most of your identity in politics.

    Na, Sargeras's giant sword making poor, innocent Azeroth bleed is probably representative of the patriarchy instead.

    In before this thread gets locked.
