The border and migration controls are something socialist states do to protect workers and their economies. The "your family will starve if you fuck up" or "our laws are inhumane and we don't care; if you care you're fired" are absolutely propaganda.

The propaganda is always projection too
It is liberal propaganda, the game is fun, though, if you ignore it. I'd recommend more The Return of Obra Dinn which is another, much more superior, video game by Lucas Pope.
Return of the Obra Dinn is probably one of the best games I've ever played. It is simply fantastic.
Indeed, I really loved their approach to languages and the gameplay is fantastic. I consumed it voraciously because it was so fascinating.
Considering the amount of lies west put in their propaganda, it's hard to be "too positively biased" for AES.
Very clearly obviously it’s propaganda based on the western projection that the commies were the same as Nazis and Nazis were famous for the “show your papers” thing.
Ironically the US police have always treated block people the way media represents the Nazis (and communists, inaccurately). Don’t ask Americans about why that’s ok but some old Soviet Union border guard asking for a passport was supposed to be representative of…anything more than what it always is
This is one of my favorite games of all time, so I may be biased. The game portrays Arstotzka as a flawed country in decline yet still better for its people than every other country on the map. Seeing how the game takes place in the 80s, and that there's a revolutionary group who wishes to combat the corrupt and greedy and bring Arstotzka back to its prime, I'd say it tries to represent the declining Soviet Union.
Where is it set?
Arstotzka, a fictional country based off of the GDR by the looks of it.
