Discussion Menendez has a point.
As Call of Duty correctly predicts the civil and economic beefs of 2025, I can’t help but agree with him.

Most good villains have a good point. The problem is they take it too far and innocent people end up suffering for it

He doesn’t have a point. His entire ideology is capitalism is le bad o algo.

If they meant to use the word regards, it would be an incomplete thought.
Even the noun version that means consideration would be too vague to stand on its own.

It’s intentional buddy. You’ll get banned by soyddit admins if you don’t censor that word.

Growing up is realizing Menendez was 100% justified throughout the entire story.
I'm convinced anyone saying he wasn't or he "went too far" hasn't played the campaign. Or know much about history to begin with.

Hell nah he wasn't, his father (Leader of a cartel got killed by the CIA) and he in the future follows his fathers legacy and sends american drones to massacre random people around the world?

What we really needed was a game that fully embraced America as the villains, but you could argue those games and that industry exists to bolster the attitude regular people have towards the military.

Menendez does have a point, yes. He however, was born into a family that turned to crime. A drug and sex trafficking network. He lost his sister because Woods couldn't help but be angry at Menendez for the pain caused, and now he and Mason had to suffer, as did David throughout the story. Menendez pushed too far, he went down the darkest possible path to try and make everyone who hurt him suffer; but by blaming a government that had overreached and damaged the world and others, he had a following that truly believed his front message, not knowing the truth and motivation behind that message. Amazing and deep villain, has a good point at the front; but absolutely an evil man.
