Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Atomic Heart
why? the game does not have any theory or understanding about communism. It only use communism aesthetic to tell a completely liberal story.
I interpret a lot of the background story as communist.
The beginning of the game is damn near communist propaganda. I will admit I haven't played all the way through it, but it definitely tries to paint communist Russia in a positive light right from the start.
Russia != USSR
Seems like a pedantic distinction
Bunch of people having fun in a modern city is propaganda? damn, I can't believe how much the USA have tried to lie to me. Thank you so much comrade for opening my eyes to those capitalist lies /s
