Very true. Some of them are really bad. I posted literally "I don't like politics in my games" when Euro took a swing at Ark Raiders for AI. I literally got a perma ban from Reset for and I quote "spreading alt right propaganda." People are nuts anymore. |
LOL. I mean one could talk about your take is ignorant how politics is basically everywhere, as politics is about everything people care about. So your take is not good as I could point out politics in everything you enjoy. But I get what you mean: you don't like on the nose politics and blatant lecturing in your games.
As I am a german I am reminded of Bertolt Brecht, a german communist writer. He fled the Nazis to the US. Then after WWII the US started to hunt communists, especially in Hollywood (look up Hollywood Ten), and Brecht was questioned about his stances as he was writing scripts. Brecht said he had nothing to do with communism and rejected the idea, than a week later he was on a ship to the newly formed GDR (aka East Germany), a communist country. He clearly was political, even in his writing. But he said, that before you can start lecturing you first have to entertain people. That is what many seem to forget these days.
Anyways, it is insane to ban you over this sentence, if nothing more is there. It is correct the right wing uses popular sentiments like yours (and yes, it is very popular). But that doesn't mean it identifies someone as a right-winger. The right wing jumps on these popular opinions *because* they are already popular beforehand, not the other way around. So the majority holding these opinions is still not right wing.
