Warthunder Nation flags customisation

Gaijin removing the Historical flags is bullshit,
They say that they removed them to avoid controversy and political issues, but that is generally stupid, with the all countries have done many controversies, Like the Russian Empire persecuting Jews, Soviet Union purging half the country and Slave labour, Great Britain having recently getting hated for their Empire, Kingdom of Italy Killing Ethiopians against the Hague Convention, France during the 1961 Paris Massacre, People’s Republic of China in 1989 in Tiananmen square, Sweden in WW2 with the internment camps, Israel with USS Liberty, Federal Republic of Germany Suppressing the Opposition as a democracy under the Radikalenerlass law, Socialist Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam during the Vietnam war) Torturing prisoners of war.
After all that I believe they should add back all the historical flags they removed

It was bc they looked like hypocrites with the refusal of RoC flag, and not wanting to get cersored by the PRC gov.

That doesnt explain the other stuff

if you remove the flags of every nation that has committed war crimes and atrocities you would have zero flags

If Gaijin really wanted to reduce political hatred in the game, they wouldn’t allow PMC and other war-related contractors or military groups to be renamed and represented in the game. Right?
Oh wait — the game is full of ZOV, Wagner, and similar stuff, which is clearly visible. There’s even “Anti-Ukraine action.” In my opinion, that is unacceptable in a game.

I see that reporting does nothing, players or squads with inappropriate names are ignored and they can continually spread hate, I'm thinking about reporting it to RRT, hopefully it could reach someone in EU for DSA

Yeah. Personally I would prefer they just went full historic, added every flag that has ever been flown over a tank to the game and told everyone to deal with it. I’m personally of the “those that forget history are doomed to repeat it” mind set, even if that history is highly unpleasant. But even pandering to certain nations aside there are legal realities they have to also deal with as well.

Only Poland would be left RAHH

Poland has commited war crimes during the pawłokoma massacre

No one is left then

yeah

Wait what about Suiz?? Yeah they denied entry of jews and served as a bank for nazi’s gold, but it was for the sake of neutrality.

Cut it off guys, it’s video game, not what ever y’all talking about

Still waiting for Taiwan flag for China, gaijin…

yeah… playing “pin the tail on the donkey” but with war crimes is asking for the ban hammer on this thread…

I think pretty much every major country has committed war crimes at some point, their flags should still be in the game. Probably not flags such as the nazi flag with a swastika, that’s a lil too far but most other things are fine

Well the Nazi flag has actual legal reasons behind it as some countries have banned it entirely, even for historical purposes.
