Whats the deal with certain games attracting a lot of far right fans but also a weird amount of comrades? (lemmygrad.ml)

I don't really have a name or genre but it's certain games like 40K, Fallout, Civ/HoI/all the other ones.

Am I the only one to notice these weird trends of political distribution? Is it just me?

Think also that it depends on whether the user gets the humor. Liberty Prime, the Imperium, etc. aren't things to support what they stand for at face value, yet some do.

Like, I remember a while ago seeing a thread on reddit where some dude was saying that Fallout was a parody of communism, and not capitalism, and his argument boiled down to "when government does something bad, it's communism".
