Indie hasn’t meant anything in forever. You don’t get to pretend to be indie when you have a multi million dollar budget and are licensing an album’s worth of 90s pop slop for your three hour long “indie” game.

It’s somehow also the closest to actually being finished.

It potrays the colonial delusion of “Australia” as something charming and harmless. No Aboriginal dogs are ever shown, just those favored by the settler population. One of the main characters’ dad is shown being an imperialist oil mercenary in the most popular episode. The main dad is an archaeologist, which in effect means he robs indigenous graves and sends them to museums for settlers to gawk at. It’s propaganda.

You should hate Bluey too for being military propaganda.

He was like a grunt wasn’t he

So a fascist then yes. Glad we agree.

Regrettably pride at this stage of history is fundamentally a corporate event. The organizers will never do this because that would threaten their green line.

DSA cannot be swept along by the whims of politicians

Bullshit that is all your reformist asses have been doing for 50 years. What part of “will not lay claim to the ready made state machinery” did you not understand.

Weed. Vidya. That’s all any of us can do, really.

wondering if China is really living in the future while we’re stuck in the 20th century.

Of course. Socialism requires thinking beyond the future. You have to operate at a level where not only has the future already happened, but you are now thinking into its future. You take the future for granted and determine future action from that.

Nice try AMC intern.

The liberal mind cares nothing for human life. Merely for building ornate decadent monuments to itself. The liberal desires nothing more than to be reduced to be an exhibit in a museum of a long-dead civilization.

I have not read enough Lenin and I will fully and shamefully admit to this fact, though my total is not zero. What I have read however is Settlers, which elucidated clearly the contradiction and deception behind the idea of the white “working class” in the west. Judging by your edit it was not clear the group I was speaking of and I will also fully admit to that.

Half the internet is ligma and the other half is uncensored porn.

Good. We shouldn’t be allowed to be. We were born into the imperial core and instead of taking the hard and painful but correct action of emigrating, we prioritized our own personal welfare and embraced the suffering we caused to others while rationalizing it away with feel good platitudes. We have no class consciousness and no potential to develop it and cannot be integrated into a truly proletarian society. Best outcome, we get placed out of the way where no more harm can be done.

More importantly the more you experience things outside of gaming your desire to engage with games will also fade.

Didnt play elysium because I hung myself in the starting room from the fan and figured that was a fitting ending for a cop

This was the first of several writingbased reasons that the game never synced for me like it apparently did for everyone else. The game wants you to feel for cop man Harry and it never succeeded in convincing me to have interest in his wellbeing and I’m surprised as many people had that interest as they did. I still went through the motions of his road to healing arc because that’s what the game clearly wants you to do but by the end I still felt nothing for this slightly less of a total wreck man, and by then the rest of the writing had started to annoy me as well.

Not to suggest I suddenly have any interest in this game either. Giving private investor skinwalker slop space in your brain never ends well, and the cynic in me has to believe the lesbian protagonist was chosen solely to gain favor with the less intellectually rigorous Tumblr side of DE’s fandom that never even played the game or knew what dialectical materialism was and just got obsessed with drawing and writing about Harry and Kim kissing. The same people that hideous “collage mode” was added to cater to.
