Gods above I hate liberals.

Yes, the story about a union strike over worker ownership of their company against their cutthroat corporate owners isnt communist.

The story about the corporation that hired a group of psychopathic, genocidal, fascist, ex-military mercenaries to break said strike by any means necessary is definitely not communist.

The story literally set in a post-revolutionary failed state that has been ripped apart by imperialism and neoliberal austerity imposed by a coalition of constitutional monarchies and liberal democracies deadset on keeping their monetary system’s inflation rate low at any cost, leaving in their wake a people broken and lost, with nothing to live for except the next bottle or hit? No thats not communist at all.

The story which puts you in the place of a beat cop, a member of the citizens militia left to pick up the pieces after the coalition leaves Revachol a dried up husk. The story of a man whose life is left so in tatters by his society and inability to cope with the pain and isolation he feels, he drinks himself into oblivion, forgets everything and fractures his psyche into 24 pieces? The story where nothing he does can undo his past actions and no matter how well you play, he still must contend with his own material existence as an imperfect human? Or that no matter what personal ideological stance you give him, he still does his job for the RCM and “solves” the case? Nope, absolutely no communist themes here.

“No! Communism is most certainly not a central theme to Disco Elysium! Is a story about individual identity! And community! No communism here, so stop looking for it!!!” :biden-point:

:lenin-rage: AHHHHHHHHH
