it's so weird to me how these types of people have absolutely no idea what they're talking about yet still do it all the fucking time. Why don't they just go talk about video games or whatever else it is they like to do?
Those are usually either the obnoxious quartering fans and/or obsessive minmaxer mechanoids which actively ruin games by spamming devs non stop 24/7 with their shit ideas untill devs cave in.
The synthesis is that there are those who unironically think video games are political theory. I've had someone (IRL but talks about reddit all the time) explain to me how Bioshock proves that far left and far right are equally bad. What the fuck is up with libs and fiction? They just take it all at face value and do zero critical analysis.
Bioshock proves that far left and far right are equally bad
The series does claim this, repeatedly. Andrew Ryan is a libertarian dumbfuck and evil. Fontaine is a fascist and evil. The unions are gullible rubes that Fontaine uses to gain power for himself. Bioshock 2's villain is, IIRC, supposed to be communist. Bioshock Infinite shows an apartheid state to be evil, but then shows that the revolution that overthrows this apartheid is actually worse.

I fully, 100% expect their takes on video games to be incredibly shit as well.

Because they think they're smart
Smart people discuss politics
And of course, smart people always start political discussions with links to Wikipedia
Dunning-kruger effect. The most ignorant like being very vocal, most do really just go and talk about video games.

It is deep. Underwater.
That's why the last one was the worst, no depth, very shallow folks
