This is a universe with faster than light travel and near infinite resources. There's a homeless shelter in one of the major cities. I helped them out. Why the fuck is there a homeless shelter in a universe with FTL and near infinite resources?

I'm starting to think Fallout under Bethesda isn't a satire and their writers are just incapable of imagining anything beyond capitalism.

I ran into a straight-up reddit libertarian in a bar on Mars. I think the organization he was pushing was called LIST? I started slamming the Tab key very soon into the conversation

Meanwhile in Deus Ex you can meet black Australian dengist bar owners in Hong Kong.

JC got his ass handed to him in that conversation, but the game kept winning.

You meet LIST colonists who are stranded in space and need help desperately because LIST didn't give them any resources.

I thought they were lying at first because they didn't seem to be sure about the name of the organization. They were like "we are with...uh...LIST?"
