I have chosen to include them in this game for the sake of historical integrity; I have always been a strong believer in the notion that we must study and analyze the past, rather than attempt to hide it away. The discomfort they bring us is a harsh reminder of what humanity is capable of, and an even stronger reminder that we mustn't ever become politically complacent in our every day lives, and always fight for what's right. If any of these figures particularly upset you, please feel free to remove them from the game before playing.
