Because any game trying to spread a political agenda in another country doesn't get localized because it has no relevance elsewhere.

The problem is when you hear "politics" you assume it directly mirrors politicians and electoral systems.

Politics actually means much more than that.

Every game does this. But apparently, because the west can't master subtlety, you get stuff shouted in your face.

Burgerlanders have the tendency of turning any form of media as their personal soapbox

all of them that have any message at all?

the true essence of whiteness is adherence to authority, normalcy, practicality, and submission to God

I understand that by this definition everything in the entire world is anti-white, and thus it isn't terribly useful, but the line is constantly moving against rational behavior, towards impractical and harmful foolishness, this is destructive towards the civilization that white people create and maintain for everyone else

Objectivists essentially believe that society is best off when everyone acts in their own rational self interest. Since true selflessness does not exist, and me acting in your interest can't possibly be as good as you doing it for yourself, you who knows your self better and is to be more motivated yo help yourself. Thus they believe capitalism is an extension of this. If you act In your own interest self interest to make money, you will make goods and services that other people need/want much more effectively then, say "the greater good"
Ancap just means you are a capitalist who is anarchist. You can be both, but most objectivists would probably argue for a limited government to protect your property Rights, shit like that. An cap would say all government is bad we can self regulate a free market.

I don't have a problem with it, no matter what the political messege. I just hate retards who don't notice or are brainwashed by it.

Jap games have been anti-war and anti-nuclear proliferation for decades and many other political 'agendas', internationally or domestically oriented, have been spread for way longer than that.

You're actually a fucking retard if you think only western games do this. Like I cannot help you, whatever condition you have is probably terminal.

Do you even play games, man?

But I kind of understand why you'd think that - because you grew up in the same environment as the designers of western games.
There's political agenda in a lot of games from everywhere.

You just didn't play enough non-western games or just didn't notice the agenda because you're not familiar with it.

After all some political agendas can be dismissed as common sense.

I can't believe there are people retarded enough to believe this. The only reason you think games from outside your culture aren't political is because you don't know their politics.
