Think about this the proletariat produces labor. Labor is the driving factor of the economy nothing is produced without it. If the prolatariat wanted to cripple the capitalist system it could, if all the workers stood up and even just striked the facade would fall, the military can’t run, the CIA can’t run, the government can’t run, the world can’t with without labor becuase the world is run via labor.

Alright bare bones a socialist is someone who beleives that the means of production (litterally anything used to make stuff) should be controlled and owned by the workers. In out current capitalist society this means of production is reffered to as “private property.” A socialist believes that only by abolishing this private property (not to confused with "personal property like toothbrush or house) and wage labor (the general concept of working a job with a boss and capitalist etc.) can the proletariat be freed from the clutches of capitol. Of course there is nuance to any awnser and between these sentences is thousands of pages of theory but the underlying prinicipals are the same. If you are getting into socialism I reccomend the Youtube channels Second Thought and Hakim.

Are we talking about “leftwing” (liberals) or leftwing (socialism) I can’t tell
idk but I’m pretty sure they’re “playing as a fascist” in that “fascism in this game is a disaster” thread, as well.
Yeah it’s not an inherently fascist take to want a game that simulates running a country to allow a fascist play through to be viable. The people that complain about the fascist power level and real fascists are mostly the same, but not by definition.
Yet another “I am just pretending and wearing a mask and you can not guess anything about what’s beneath the mask, also my entertainment has no effect on me” consumerbrain.
Whoah hold up. Check their post history, OP.

Yeah most of their posts in the last year have been in Socialism subreddits. I don’t think this poster is a fascist lol
