Hunger Games is about revolutionary anti-imperial class struggle
George Lucas said the Empire is inspired by America and the Rebels by the Viet Minh
The Matrix was created by a trans woman and at least partly an allegory for being trans
Divergent is shitty lib fanfiction but very obviously anti-conservative
Alan Moore was a communist or anarchist
wow these movies are just like January 6th when we resisted communism by smearing our shit on the capitol walls!!
Rebel in the name of the status quo
lol
Literally me screaming at my switch the whole time I played the game
Bruh 😭😭😭😭😭😭 don’t hurt me like that I loved P5 but all that revolutionary potential was completely wasted
I named my team Bolshevik and all for nothing
I named mine Tankie lmao 😭
Alright, let’s start a struggle session:

Was Maruki right?

I still haven’t played the Royal ending, but I think I’m far enough in NG+ to guess - is he just doing the “I’m going to make everyone a big blob” anime plot?

Hahaha, pretty much that’s what it gets reduced to. They foreshadow it even. He steps in as a substitute teacher on one of the days, and his bit is on ‘‘totalitarianism’’. So they’re already doing the anticom stuff of saying everyone will be the same, use the same toothbrush, be conformists, etc. So when you finally see what he’s up to, you’re primed to think that his solution is just turning everybody into that caricature.

It’s always the same anime plot lol
I remember the bit you’re talking about - he asks something like “what’s the difference between authoritarianism and totalitarianism” and the right answer is something like “totalitarianism involves control of public discourse” or something like that
