So what you're saying is that those games didn't shove their message down people's throat while modern games do?

No, learn to read

They clearly said that it's just a new message they the people actually see now that it's in the societal eye, the people whining about woke are the same people who missed the point of other media, too

That while they did have a political message, they didn't make it core to the experience

They mentioned Fight Club. If you think the political message isn't core to that movie then, well, you're one of the dipshits being discussed

And fucking starship troopers. Anyone who doesn't see the politics of that movie is either completely media illiterate or isn't able to actually see messages that aren't pointed out to them. I'm not sure they could have been more overt without NPH throwing the Nazi salute.

No need to be rude.

I didn't watch fight club. I have no idea what it's about. If it is intended to educate people on political issues, great. If it is intended to entertain and only discusses political issues subtly in the background, great. If it is intended to entertain, but fails at doing so because of presenting a political message in a manner that hinders entertainment, not great.
