This per si is a very individualistic/liberal way to see the matter! I would love to live in Cuba, for example, since I understand Spanish pretty well, yet, if I am a true socialist, it means that I want mankind to live in socialism and after, communism. The best way to do it is to fight for revolution in my country.
God that fuckin thread. Someone in there really straight-up pulled a “I honestly think the world is split into the greater and the lesser; and the latter exists to serve the former” and had the unmitigated settler gall to take offense when people compared him to a nazi/eugenicist.
it’s so weird to me how these types of people have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about yet still do it all the fucking time. Why don’t they just go talk about video games or whatever else it is they like to do?
Dunning-kruger effect. The most ignorant like being very vocal, most do really just go and talk about video games.
The synthesis is that there are those who unironically think video games are political theory. I’ve had someone (IRL but talks about reddit all the time) explain to me how Bioshock proves that far left and far right are equally bad. What the fuck is up with libs and fiction? They just take it all at face value and do zero critical analysis.

The series does claim this, repeatedly. Andrew Ryan is a libertarian dumbfuck and evil. Fontaine is a fascist and evil. The unions are gullible rubes that Fontaine uses to gain power for himself. Bioshock 2’s villain is, IIRC, supposed to be communist. Bioshock Infinite shows an apartheid state to be evil, but then shows that the revolution that overthrows this apartheid is actually worse.
