Whats the deal with certain games attracting a lot of far right fans but also a weird amount of comrades? (lemmygrad.ml)

I don't really have a name or genre but it's certain games like 40K, Fallout, Civ/HoI/all the other ones.

Am I the only one to notice these weird trends of political distribution? Is it just me?

Most of those are satires of fascists meant to point out how stupid they are, but the fascists are too fucking stupid to ever realize it.

Games Workshop (warhammer and warhammer 40k) even put out a short comic where the space marine protagonist kills a bunch of literal nazis and tells them they aren’t welcome anywhere to get the point across and the irl nazis only barely caught on
