It's because the Lion was a gamer all along.
I really hope the curse of Assad won't strike me down for this blasphemy.

"reportedly" addicted to video games
reported by me making this up just now as i say reportedly
He's just the latest in a long line of millenials, zoomers, and whatever the heck we call the new kids on the block after zoomers to hate on to declare has become completely addicted to video games and is causing X moral panick
Literally 
What does the lion of Damascus think of the chapo MGS miniseries.
You know, now might actually be the time to ask him now that he's retired.
I hope he enjoys his... Retirement....
Running a country sounds awful. I'm glad he has the option to kick back and relax a bit more
Depends on the game I think. Apex or fortnight might spike ones bloodpressure more than running a country methinks
I wonder what his favorite gamer word is 
Probably some variation of y'allah depending on the situation
Probably gonna be some slur for Assyrians or something
What else is he supposed to do in his retirement? Post lists to appear relatable/relevant?
You'd think he'd try being a grifter "president in exile giving speechs for a few grand" or something like the many American goons and puppets, but it's surprising he's just doing his own thing now.
The difference is twofold. The first is that those American compradors, puppets and goons are selling something an American audience wants. Usually neoliberal economics and "democracy" in the form of allowing American cutout NGOs to run things. Assad is the face of a movement whose chief successful politics are secular Arab nationalism and nationalising resource extraction industries. Do you think there is much of a receptive audience among the political and social elite in Russia?
Which leads to the second thing. Assad was very clearly given a deal of don't get involved in politics and don't make a spectacle of yourself and you get to stay here by Putin, and going on a lecture tour is the opposite of that.
Would the deal hold if he starts a vtuber twitch channel and became twitch famous?
I think he'd have to go on kick
Those damn communists hate freedom to stream on twitch
no phones in sight, just living in the moment
he's currently replaying the demascus steel mission at legendary difficulty because he keeps killing Wahid
they're still using xbox 360 stock photos in 2025 lol
Should've used this one. Remember this behemoth?
"now that im no longer president of Syria I can spend my free time playing cities: skylines"
-Assad, Probably
we are reposting posts that were last posted two days ago. our admins are SHIT
Yeah they suck!
RIGHT TO POST! RIGHT TO POST!
oh shit someone shot you in the head while we were having sex I'm pretty sure it was another corporate spy after me so I'm gonna get my friends to hog tie you in a tree so the cops investigate and get the heat off my back 
once a scab always a scab
WHY ABC, ABC MY GOOD MAN! Having sex would BREAK my volcel pledge I made to the workers I REPRESENT! It is UNFA-thomably RUDE to say that about an UP-standing person such as myself!
Now please, let us converse in a civilized manner, as equals. Take a seat -- I insist.
Ah yes, Xbox 360 controller
Much better than Joycon drift
what are his thoughts on Silksong
What is he playing? Russians love those tactical shooters right.
I want to believe I've encountered him in War Thunder lobbies, he probs plays China
he definitely plays USSR even though every fucking plane has like 0 ammo, 0 speed, and 100 armor plates
