Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is capitalist propaganda
 
I'd already called it during E3, but welp.

This game is overt propaganda for the far right. Don't support it. REALLY. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS GAME.

You are so good at asking me not to buy things that I wasn't going to buy in the first place. I love not having to try. Also:

The character, as with the rest of the story, is the creation of David S. Goyer. Goyer is the co-writer of The Dark Knight Rises, which also shares a similar story featuring Bane as Batman’s primary antagonist, who starts a class war aimed against the rich and privileged of Gotham City with the backing of the common man. I’m sensing a common theme here.
Goddammit, every new thing I hear about this movie is terrible.

I'm real glad I thought Dark Knight Rise looked boring as shit.

You also shouldn't buy Pokémon anymore. It's about digital cock- or dogfighting. Barbaric.

I'm not saying this isn't tasteless, but you could probably do what I just did for a shitton of games, and come out with never buying games, ever again.

Such things are typically already recognized in our society as shitty and awful.

Far right conservatism is already embraced in America, the primary target for the game, and a one of the bigger games of the year being far right propaganda, not just tasteless but actual propaganda, is incredibly fucked up.

Pokemon's not trying to make a social statement or demonize the efforts of the working class to not be shat all over by the wealthy elite.

That's the difference.

Y'know... there is a trailer...



...and if that is that, what is this...?

Can i just point out, that going herp derp that isn't terrible because another game does the exact same terrible thing. Doesn't make the terrible thing not terrible it makes both of them terrible.

Who'd play Call of Duty anyway? I thought NPF had somewhat decent taste.
