It’s that the game, story, or environment is being sacrificed to shove a political message down your throat.
… said by people who only know of this because today we talk about that message. The same people who loved Starship Troopers without realising it’s a tale about the dangers of fascism. Who cheered Fight Club not realising it criticized male stereotypes. And lauded the Fallout video game series even though it on purpose allows same sex relationships since Fallout 2.
Sheep. Led by Russian propaganda filtered through their current favorite “I tell it like it is”-influencers.

So what you’re saying is that those games didn’t shove their message down people’s throat while modern games do? That while they did have a political message, they didn’t make it core to the experience and presented it in a way that allowed people who only wanted to play to completely ignore it?
You are validating the above comment’s point.
If you think the political message isn’t core to that movie then, well, you’re one of the dipshits being discussed
No need to be rude.
I didn’t watch fight club. I have no idea what it’s about. If it is intended to educate people on political issues, great. If it is intended to entertain and only discusses political issues subtly in the background, great. If it is intended to entertain, but fails at doing so because of presenting a political message in a manner that hinders entertainment, not great.

And fucking starship troopers. Anyone who doesn’t see the politics of that movie is either completely media illiterate or isn’t able to actually see messages that aren’t pointed out to them. I’m not sure they could have been more overt without NPH throwing the Nazi salute.
