      The irony is that most of the "evil pig cops" are surprisingly cordial and respectful of the obnoxious black girl who screams micro-aggressions at everyone, while also being bigoted against robots...in a game where being a bigot makes you the bad guy.
      The reason she hates robots? Her magic powers that cause people to do what she tells them to don't work on the bots.

      They made gaslighting the main power of the game. At least in something like Force Unleashed 2 the Jedi Mind Trick can be mildly justified in that it's an action game, and thus you're doing anything you can to keep these mooks from killing you, even if it means turning them against each other or making them jump a great height to their deaths. Here, most of the scenarios you use the power are fairly ordinary, if a bit heated, conversations with other noncombatants, taking away the survival justification.

    Um, yeah. The link between socialism and DEI is clearly illustrated with Dustborn. For those who don't know, this game was developed by the predominantly white Norwegian developers at Red Thread Games. It was funded by the Norwegian Film Institute, Vikensenter (a mental health clinic), and the Creative Europe Media Programme of the EU.
    Dustborn doesn't have to be profitable because it was paid for by Norway and the EU. The fact that not one but THREE separate European state organizations funded this anti-American propaganda says volumes about how EU leaders perceive America.

      You’re absolutely spot on with that 7/10! The IGN reviewer (who, in their review, tells us they’re neither straight nor entirely mentally healthy) encourages gamers to ‘embrace the whole package’ and not get too hung up over one aspect of the game. They also compare it (favourably) to the X-Men comics inasmuch as they believe X-Men was all about ‘inclusivity’ (though it’s interesting how everything that wants to be called ‘inclusive’ always ends up excluding a sizeable chunk of its potential audience).

    “People don’t like politics with their entertainment”
    Speaking as someone who moved in activist circles (though before ‘woke’; early-mid 00s) they tend to misunderstand something about ‘people’. Everyone *knows* that politics is everywhere, and much of the time the reason people switch on the TV, or go to see a film or a sports game, is because they want to forget about the politics of everyday life for a couple of hours. They will have been dealing with work politics, family politics, they may have all manner of responsibilities that emerge during adulthood, and they want a break. The activists think they (the people) are ignorant but they’re not; they’re just tired from a long day/week/life and want a rest so they can tune out. Activists often speak about their protests and other activities as if they’re punishing people for wanting to tune out in this way, and it was this kind of talk that led me to disassociate myself from those circles.

    In spite of modern gaming, politics *can* in fact work in games, when done right. Metal Gear Solid is the perfect example of this. It uses politics to tell stories that’ll stick with you your whole life. Talking about human ethics, real societal issues, and actual corruption behind closed doors. And MGS has a lot more meaningful messaging than just “straight white people bad,” which is exactly why people still talk about it today as the timeless classic that it is.
    The issue isn’t games using politics. The issue is games using Twitter Politics.
