    said by people who only know of this because today we talk about that message

    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.

      No, learn to read

      They clearly said that it’s just a new message they the people actually see now that it’s in the societal eye, the people whining about woke are the same people who missed the point of other media, too

      That while they did have a political message, they didn’t make it core to the experience

      They mentioned Fight Club. If you think the political message isn’t core to that movie then, well, you’re one of the dipshits being discussed

        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.
