I prefers the term of Dialectical Materialism simulator.

It’s a fantasy game for closet commies, as HOI IV is for closet Nazis or Wehraboos in the end

I'm not bothering to read much of this(500 comments?), but after a few minutes quick glance its the usual fairly above average positive response as usual.

I wonder if it is because with the game becoming less popular again most of the mainstream is gone already.

When I was first learning about Marxism, I noticed the ideas that many talking points spawned from. It does seem like a lot of these talking points were drafted by someone intimately familiar with Marxism who deliberately set out to distort them... which is extremely likely what actually happened.

It's almost as if, instead of a footnote as most liberal academics would like to have you think, acceptance or rejection of Marxism (or aspects of it) is THE defining philosophy of the 20th and 21st century. It is almost as if every other modern social science was spawned from either trying to verify, disprove or create an alternative framework to avoid dealing with marxism.

Mark Millie testified that he was required to read Mao “Tse Tung” (not Zedong, as commonly referred in the west) during his military academy days (the context was that BLM is not a radical communist organization lol).
