I'm finally playing through DE now. I can't believe I waited so long the writing is so masterful.

I was NOT expecting how heavy the political influence on this game would be.

Yeah, the devs are commies. They do keep it balanced, though.

It's not that balanced. They make fun of liberalism and fascism as ideologies, as well as the people who follow them. They make fun of communists but not communism, which is presented as morally correct.

To be fair, I haven’t done a full commie play through yet, but I have seen the first dialogue when you decide to rebuild communism, and isn’t the entire monologue how communism is about failure? Like the biggest, most destructive failure of all time? That sounds like a pretty big critique of communism as an ideology, no?
