Check the facts:

1. Sonic is Blue, who fought for the hearts and minds of gamers against the Red forces of Mario and Nintendo in 1991, the year of the fall of the Soviet Union. Sonic's nemesis, Dr. Robotnik, is also red-colored

2. Getting back to Robotnik, the name means "Eggman" in Russian, but in Polish, it means "Laborer" (our word Robot was derived from an eastern europeaon root for "work,"), so Sonic fights the Red Laborer

3. Robotnik's forces are diverse individuals who have been made into drones of one type or another, and notice that by liberating the robots, you also make them harmless to you, the player

Sonic who fights the Red Worker by taking back the equality given to the Working Forces of the armed Proletariat by making them helpless

Up next: Why is Mario Stalin?



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Around the Network

The last line made me rofl

However, Robotnik is NOT Eggman in Russian. It means laborer/worker as well. (yeah yeah it's pronunced Rabotnik!!!)
Eggman is... Chelovek-yaitzo, sorry :P
Still, it works.



Why is Mario like Stalin?  That's easy... he's got the hat and the mustache.. .'nuff said!
