     @s8n its a good game you can literally go around being an ancap and getting paid to scream taxation is theft at everyone or you can go be a nazi
     
     the only people the devs seem to hate are the centrists (who are like, portrayed as evil mastermind UN-NATO)

     @icedquinn disco elysium was a game I knew to stay away from because of the way in which penny arcade recommended it

     @s8n i think centrists eat a lot of shit because there's actually a multitude of things going on that get called that
     
     the one i know best is when you're basically cherry picking sides based on issues (eat the rich but limit immigration etc)
     
     discos seems to be more of a cybernetics-esque control scheme (they don't seem to care what people DO as long as its within a permissible amount of disorder)
     
     though its possible they are just exceptionally fucking sleepy, since one of the discussions implies they wait for simulators to make decisions and could be putting up with blackwater's shit because they're busy diddling about waiting on the COBOL mainframe to decide if they can dispose of them or not

     @RA2lover @s8n i hear this 'change your opinion to conform' thing about centrists but honestly this is just NPC behavior. everyones doing that. ESPECIALLY the neoliberals, since you're not allowed to disagree with any one bullet point or you're basically hitler

     @s8n@posting.lolicon.rocks @icedquinn@blob.cat I think it's more nuanced than that.
     
     It's okay to change one's opinion often, but people will find out really quick when that's being done because you think it's what the majority of people seem to think and thus more likely to get you votes, rather than when you do it because new information comes up revealing your previous opinion was flawed and there exist alternatives that are better in every way.

     @icedquinn I think centrists eat a lot of shit because not having an opinion and being uneducated are not valid political platforms
