I'm pretty sure it would be impossible to play a game like Spec Ops: The Line or Bioshock and miss the political message
People watch star trek and listen to fortunate son and miss the message in both of those pieces of art so I’m pretty sure someone would miss the political message in just about anything.
...and Starship Troopers, and every song by Rage Against the Machine...
Would you like to know more (examples of people missing the point)?
Does anyone really listen to RATM anymore? Tom Morello is a multimillionaire who hordes money instead of giving charity. Hes a hypocrite and a sell-out.
Well, you're a dumb conservative. Of course no one in your circle listens to Rage Against the Machine.
