I definitely love Metro 2033, they have a bad view of communists and essentially write them as red fash, turn gameplay is cool and so is the environment of the entire game. Democracy Now! is SocDem media which has great content and spectacular interviews/convos with important journalists and scholars, but some real gremlins slip through every now and then. I also like watching Modern Family which is one of the most lib shows I can think of. When I was younger it was one of the only positive/normal portrayals of a gay couple(admittedly they portray upper middle class as normal, which isn’t normal at all these days, but still I think they can get a break)and as a young straight kid, most of the American media that I digested was always mocking gay people (not that I sought it out or anything, it was pervasive throughout American culture) and using their sexuality as a punchline or something, pretty dehumanizing shit on the regular, which I never thought about how it affects my view of gay people until that show. Obviously there are valid criticisms of the show, ones that I recognized even on my first viewing of the show w my parents, and more over time as I become more politically aware, but I will credit that show with doing more good than harm.
