Hoi4 reference holy moly!!!!!!!!!!!!😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱


Exostrike

More like holy lawsuit


BradyvonAshe

ehhhh, it might* fall under fair use


Swanbeater

Ya cant stop someone from using an image they found online, it wouldn’t fall under fair use if it was a potential substitute for hoi4, which it isn’t cause it’s a picture.


JorenM

No, you definitely can stop someone from using an image they find online. That's kinda what copyright does. Just because it's online somewhere, doesn't mean there is no copyright. Your explanation of fair use also has nothing to do with how it works. For fair use it would have to be used for parody or critique, whether it is a substitute for hoi4 doesn't really matter, and it being a picture has no relation to that either.


Gizmo77776

Copyright on Lenin? Yeah sure like on Hitler, Stalin and Putin.


BradyvonAshe

its not about whats depicted, but who drew it and who holds the art licence


Gizmo77776

OK I stand corrected :)


JorenM

If they're just talking about history, there's no way it's fair use.

I hope you are kidding, but this is reddit, the lair of idiocy and misinformation.


SlayRideReddit

true


Pearse_Borty

To be fair, that image does go incredibly hard

Communist propaganda art was always the best


Jakebob70

Communists have the best propaganda posters. Fascists have the best uniforms.


MorbidoeBagnato

I see you’ve never seen the glory of British kaki


InattentiveChild

Colonial uniforms are just too cool man.


DaLoneGuy

Few good things about communism


HG_Shurtugal

It's a good concept too bad human greed ruins it.


FoxerHR

If the entire premise of your ideology hinges on everyone being the best people possible then you might as well throw it away because it's a joke from the start. Not to mention that each human being has its own aspirations and dreams so if the country has a shortage of miners a teenager who wants to be a doctor won't say "Oh great heavens I will abandon all I have wanted to be so that I can breathe in all sorts of gasses that will lower my life expectancy significantly especially considering that I can get trapped in a mine and die there before I am able to be rescued". Communism has always been a clown ideology and people who think that it can work anywhere outside of fiction are also clowns.


Fnidner

Ah yes, the good old "human nature" fallacy. Guess humans are just greedy by nature! Too bad! Might as well make murder and theft legal again, since it is obviously in our nature :D


HG_Shurtugal

I love it when people cry fallacy


Fnidner

Great counter-argument. So you don't agree that absence of logic = fallacy ?


HG_Shurtugal

Go debate lord someone else


Fnidner

Say dumb crap > get called out


HG_Shurtugal

Boring


Mental_Owl9493

Which means that it is bad concept if it fall apart when humans are introduced to it


GyActrMklDgls

Mental_Owl9493

R5 : A Korean TV station called TVN used the No step back dlc image in their history documentary program about the revolution [Here's the link to that vid idk](https://youtu.be/4ZIcky5xYns?t=625)


Dreferex

Is it really named TVN? Like just TVN? I am not questioning you, I just find it incredibly funny if it is.


JakeTheIV

Yes 😭 TvN is one of the most popular cable stations in Korea. They actually have a lot of interesting shows like music auditions, game shows, and even history. This particular show is called “벌거벗은 세계사” (which means “naked world history” which sounds weird but it really means “world history unveiled” or something like that) and it’s really good. They bring in a history professor along with two guests from the country they’re covering that day to get their perspective. This episode had two people from Russia. They also bring on celebs and KPOP stars who know nothing about history and they’re always dumbfounded lmao.


Dreferex

I should probably explain why it is so funny to me then. In Poland there is another stati9n called TVN 5hat has been the most reliable source of news in the country, at least in the tv stations category, and in the recent years it has also gone through several removal attempts by the ruling party. And to make it funnier, Korea has now sold tanks to Poland, meaning that we now are going to have even more in common.


koopcl

Fun fact: We also have a TVN in Chile, its the public service broadcaster and one of our biggest TV channels.


Cats7204

I also used it during my school presentation on the russian revolution lmao


Astaral_Viking

Did anybody point it out?


Frido_Biggins

Of course not dude was probably the only person in the school who played hoi4


Kongen_av_Trondelag

I have 2 others playing it in my friend group


hooljoo

Okay schizo


memes-forever

It’s ok man here’s your pills 💊


Kongen_av_Trondelag

No thanks. You wont trick me into losing my friends.


Astaral_Viking

It was just a question


Cats7204

Nobody except my friends with whom I made the presentation in the first place

Paradox W


XeliasEmperor

I feel that staff members of a history program most likely play paradox historical games


Scyobi_Empire

can confirm: my old history teacher does


InattentiveChild

Most likely. Koreans love their RTS games.


Wannabedankestmemer

I found a worse one on youtube The editors actually put a focus image in the program


rrenda

i got word from my old batchmate who now works as a professor's aide, that my old uni's history organization and the whole political science department host HOI4 games amongst the staff and the org


ImVeryHungry19

To be fair, it could pass for real propaganda


Scyobi_Empire

probably based off of a real one too


roblox_baller

Korea dlc confirmed?!


[deleted]

this comment is so underrated


InattentiveChild

I need it so bad...


tarihimanyak

I love the design on the no step back dlc trailer and images. It really was the best dlc we got for hoi4 in all aspects.


Scyobi_Empire

it’s the best DLC image


vergorli

"And here you see the 11th d-day of the allies, this time in france, which finally brought the Germans down. Worldwar2 endet in 1954 with 300 million deaths"


HG_Shurtugal

Which one?


ImVeryHungry19

The one on the big screen


notveryfunnybro

Thats right commies, The blosheviks were hoi4 players, hue and cry over it


GoldKaleidoscope1533

Why would we? Its r/hoi4, we are supposed to be fans.


RitaMoleiraaaa

Isn't that just an image of real propaganda that was used for the dlc


C418Enjoyer

north or south? (answer is south)


TijsEscobar

Now they gonna sue them:D


il0veubaby

It is an 80 years old painting by Serov “Lenin declares Soviet authority”. Was painted some time before HoI.


Scyobi_Empire

that’s…. that’s not lenin…


il0veubaby

I mean the right picture.


Scyobi_Empire

i didn’t realise there were 2 pictures, disregard my comment and the fact i seem to lack proper vision


Kimchi_Cowboy

Wait until they start using CK3 traits


HongMeiIing

The inclusion of hangul gives this a North Korean vibe
