Helldivers devs really went with satirising the "UNPROVOKED INVASION" language around the Ukraine war (hexbear.net)

I'm genuinely impressed with their balls. Libs probably won't notice it but they've done this both on twitter and in-game.

It feels like a leap to me that they're specifically satirizing Ukraine.

I was gonna say I think OP called down the jump pack stratagem

They're satirizing the language of political propaganda in general. There's no reason to think they're commenting on Ukraine specifically.

They're satirizing American imperial language and there are definitely enough people in that studio to have chuckled about Ukraine, or October 7th, etc.
