    Fucking thank you. I think one of my reluctance of finishing Disco Elysium is that its politics isn't particularly good, certainly not revolutionary. I really dislike Evrart since to me, he's just your standard "aren't unions actually corrupt and work with organized crime??????" bullshit trope that is more than half a century old at this point. This movie, in particular, was directed by an anticommunist traitor piece of shit who sold out his fellow directors and creatives by ratting them out in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee. A deeply reactionary film with a reactionary backstory. Some of these reactionary tropes go way back and have a reactionary history. No art with good politics should attempt to uncritically incorporate them into their art.
