Gmod is also particularly popular in Eastern Europe and Russia, which seems to be a particularly toxic region. I've seen more than a few distasteful posts in Russian, such as when "burnt Ukranian corpses" spent multiple days as the most popular workshop item, with comments in Russian celebrating and making various racist and nationalist remarks.

Also not suprised War Thunder is up there too. Again, popular in Russia, and like HoI, its the type of game to attract Nazis and Wehraboos.
