You have to design your avatar and then it tells you off for not being socialist enough. It then depicts you as a factory worker (albeit a smiling one) implying that you can't have any free will or personal tastes

Socialism when no casual clothes, magazines, or beer apparently.

One more for funsies

I just assume these are fash or wreckers tbh. I don't believe them for a second. Doesn't matter what they are though they get treated the same way either way.

    Yeah. Like, I get them on the whole "Soviet aesthetics are cool AF" thing. I even think modern commie states should still build stuff in the Soviet brutalist style, which I am aware is a controversial opinion even among commies. But at a certain point... you don't like brutalism, you like fascism in a sloppy coat of red paint.

    Sure, the fascists hated it then. But modern fascists who think they're communists, National Bolshevik types, they really love Soviet aesthetics, they just also like systems of governance that are incompatible with socialist economic systems.
