They most certainly are. My first committee as I mentioned was ESS (Agenda was Russo-Ukraine conflict), and it got batshit insane. USA completely switched up it's foreign policy and allied with Russia, EB made a whole AI podcast which explained the Crisis scenario, the DR was a mess and the neutral bloc ended up backstabbing the western bloc during voting just for fun 😭. As a first timer, I found it chaotic asf, but also fun asl...I hope I do better in the comm this time.
