    Honestly, I like games like this, prison architect, etc. because they make you think from the perspective of owner of capital. You find yourself making inhumane decisions to further your own ends. They serve as a reminder that oppression is in the best interests of the capital owning/ ruling class.

      The virgin moral decision maker vs the Chad number go bigger and reading text boxes is for nerds

      This is why I still recommend (pirating) Factorio, despite the, ah, unfortunate outlook of the lead dev.

    I once toyed with the idea of making a Gestalt Consciousness called "John Brown's Body" that would be totally dedicated to erasing slavery from the galaxy through militarism and ideology wars. My friend made a regular civ along those lines in single player and told me it worked out pretty well.

    In game, freed happy pops make better workers and better soldiers but you DO have to make them happy and it's a lot of micromanagement of balancing their different classes needs and handling unemployment etc. Free happy pecialists make so much of whatever product, but they cost SO much in consumer goods.

    Unless you use shared burdens, comrade! Liberate the galaxy, become the red tide of all freed pops, you have nothing to lose but your chains!

    I still can't believe that the latest dlc doesn't let you discretely fund revolutions.
