Maybe I just didn't play far enough in the story, but I got a distinct liberal bothsides vibe with 'unrestricted capitalism bad', but leftists are terrorists.
Just a hunch, but I'm guessing there's no deus ex twist at the end where the terrorists are false flags.
Too bad I won't find out, I was enjoying it until the le epic keanu moment has soured me on AAA games entirely.
Also their ussr ain't even socdem. It's a neoliberal trade cartel exactly like the eu is today.
I keep hearing that "leftists are terrorists" shit while playing and I keep thinking "Uhhh... Yeah duh. If you're not a terrorist in this city there is seriously something wrong with you."
from what I understand the government has a strong propaganda apparatus and isn’t trust worthy a good example is how they exaggerate the dangerousness of nomads as blood thirsty murderers (and dont talk about how most of them rebuilt the cities in america and are highly educated or loyal etc.) and don’t talk about the fact the previous year 30% the population of the city dropped apparently biggest in 21st century. Idk it seems like the “terrorist” angle was obvious to me that its a label put on people the government doesn’t like but sure i guess thats fair if someone is uninitiated could definitely see that.
