That was a pretty cool video. It's nice to know some people took (and still do) children's entertainment seriously, and didn't use it just as a rhetorical shield against the critisism of their work. Apart from delivering a good message, the games also seem extremely well made in general.

Loved this!... Keep it up!

Oh this I gotta watch

It's pretty solid, and reveals things I never could've imagined the devs would put into the game. Loved it as a kid growing up, but I have a whole new appreciation for it now.

Above all things, the way leftists feel the need to inject and advertise their political views into everything angers me the most. "EvErYtHiNg iS PoLitiCaL" > no, it isn't. Why can't we just play video games to get away from real world stupidity? I just don't get it. I don't need to know your political views. Let's just chat about video games and escapism.

In another comment below, I briefly describe the sort of political content the game has in it. It's not something a random leftist is projecting onto it, it's explicitly political content in the game itself, which is what is being discussed.
It's not really any different from discussing the themes or political content of Metal Gear Solid, Disco Elysium, or Planescape: Torment.
If that's not something you're interested, fair enough my friend! But surely it's not an inconvenience for others to discuss it? The title makes it clear what this is, which makes it pretty easy to avoid and scroll on to the next post.
