Evgeny sez, "I've just put up a post about a new Russian game Stalin vs Martians. Check the trailer with the dancing Stalin screaming "I command you to dance!"

Mars attacks, Stalin reacts! (Thanks, Evgeny!)

Wait a second... I saw this very video here a month or two ago... Might have been offworld, but that's the same thing.

Video's still cool though.

I'm completely torn over who to root for. On one hand, it's Martians and on the other hand, it's Joe Stalin. Maybe they'll nuke each other.

Interesting how what is and is not socially acceptable for open mockery changes with the times. Hitler in particular seems to regularly shift between "too serious to joke about" and "a staple for comedians of the age."
