I added the following to the page, and it was removed;
- Ripped from the Headlines: One mission, "Grace Under Fire", involves defending memorials against people who want to destroy them because they don't like what the memorialized represent. This evokes 2017's Confederate statue controversy, but these are attacked by right-wing fanatics, and few people on either side of the aisle would think straight up attacking actual gravesites is a good idea.
The logic was "well, it can't be based on real life if the game was in development for years". But Ubi could've made a single mission based on the controversy in a few months, or modified an already planned mission for that purpose. This sounds a lot more like a rationalization for removing the point than a reason.

Noticed a case of Gameplay and Story Segregation. After being brainwashed by Jacob, the song “Only You” will send you into an agent of the cult, but if the song plays on the radio in Henbane River (each radio station in each region plays a different genre), nothing happens to you or anyone else nearby.
Arguably, being able to play after the “Resist” ending can also count too.
