This was retweeted on my Twitter today and it seems to be blowing up. I thought it'd be good for a laugh. Thoughts on it?

The number of games that are blatantly satire/criticism of right wing ideology on the right wing side is hilarious

This is the video game equivalent of a flat earther putting a level on a table and then claiming that the Earth is flat because the level doesn't wobble.

It's Twitter. Some of the dumbest opinions on that site sound like trolling until you realize they ain't trolls but genuinely believe this.

Ace Attorney is clearly leftwing based on its belief that any moron should be able to practice law as long as they believe in the innocence of their more than likely guilty client.

But it's also rightwing in that the police isn't depicted as racist.

i don't think the game itself has any sort of political leaning, but the amount of people i run into who are either obviously racist or in full chug of alt-right kool-aid is kind of something. it's a good thing i'm not a sunbro.

Nep and Senran's gay characters would not have it on the right wing

Ive been part of the souls community for a long time and its far less racist than other games i follow.

There's a lot of stuff I'm finding out about the games listed as "right-wing"

The composer for Dragon Quest is extremely racist and homophobic. Strange.

But most of the list is seemingly labeled in regards to the fandom surrounding the games.

Minecraft, Doom, Halo, Five Nights, and Fortnite definitely don't have left wing fanbases relative to a lot of the games on the right side.
Especially stuff like Bayonetta. Also despite having Bayonetta, presumably due to its open sexual expression, on the right they also have Nier Automata on the left.

It's more like these video games become communities for old men who have no business being THIS INTO video games. Isolation and personal factors and time spent in these ecochambers make radicals out of them. Whether it be cucky weebs or right wing loons.

That's my general overview of it.
