Why do gamers tend to embrace fascism when so many games preach that you should always be bashing the fash and fighting The Man?
Because video games are a fantasy world where rebels tend to be in the right and are entirely capable of running a country after overthrowing the seat of power.
At least we have games like Fable 3 to remind us that overthrowing the government isn't always a good idea.
They're just a vocal minority.

>Another person who doesn't understand what fascism is
I bet you think fascism is a right wing ideology too?
Typically in stories The Man is so blatantly evil its no wonder anyone is obeying. Umbrella, Shinra, Shadaloo, Illuminati, the church
What was Rufus Shinra's tax policy?

Man despite it being a let down, Fable 3 had some pretty rad ideas that I wish someone else would come along and expand on.

Prove that gamers tend to embrace fascism first.
Shit thread.
What are some games where "the man" are in the right and the "rebels" are in the wrong?
>>387858140
Metal Slug? You still play as the good guys though.
Because you label everyone who doesn't support the complete breakdown of culture, morals, and the family unit as a fascist. Bill Clinton, a progressive democrat at the time would be considered a fascist by liberals today.

What culture is breaking down? What morals? What family unit?

It was more of a 80s/90s thing
you know, when fighting facism was actually way more relevant
gamers don't actually support to facism but that's the narrative "anti"facists use right now to excuse their own facism.

It doesn't matter both are bad ideologies that deal in collectivism and both have ended in millions of deaths for the cause

The rebels in Deus Ex are /pol/fags, le reddit french edition, and chinese gangters so they are pretty shit

It is. left/right original meant republican/monarchist. Not whatever the hell right wing means in modern america.

>Why do gamers tend to embrace fascism
they don't though
gamers tend to embrace playing games and shutting the fuck up about politics
the fascists and the sjws just won't stop bringing it up
>>387856789
It's insane how antifa are acting right now, it's so similar to how the national socialist party came into power
>>387858495
That one is just sad when you think about it.

So your saying fascism is monarchist? Piss off dude hitler was anti bourgeoise he wanted to take down the right wing politics

National Socialism is Fascistic, but Italian Fascism is the be all and end all of the ideology. It was pro-monarchy.

But in that game, the "anti-facists" blow up energy sources and kill hundreds. Even their leader realizes that their past actions were not the answer to fight Shinra.

You mean Weimar and communists. But yeah, the media covering for them doesn't help. In either case, not video games./v/ is pretty much neogaf these days anyway.
>>387856789
You posted a pretty terrible example, considering that the group's actions caused the deaths of god knows how many innocent people, and in the end it was revealed that even if they somehow managed to blow up every single reactor and dismantle Shinra, the planet was still fucked. The epitome of a meaningless, violent struggle, hurting others because you're frustrated and don't know how else to live.
