If you own an Xbox360, PS3 or PC, you need to play the new game just released: Bioshock Infinite
High production values, fantastic action, excellent sound and...interesting political commentary with elements of the Tea Party
Irrational packed every square foot of Columbia with audio-visual information. The floating city is a dystopia of early 20th century Americana mixed with the white supremacy, anti-labor rhetoric and propaganda of the Jim Crow South and modern-day right-wing zealots.
In the way that the writings of Ayn Rand informed the world of BioShock, extremist conservatives like deceased Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina or current conservative icon, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, inform BioShock Infinite’s mythology.
Columbia is a floating fortress that has taken the founding of the United States and twisted it into a religion. The city’s citizens literally pray to Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson. It’s an extreme take on the unquestioning reverence for America that echoes some of the rhetoric you might hear from the right-wing of the Tea Party.
I love stuff like this. Yes, it is fiction but it is based on exactly the nonsense Republicans say they want and which have a long history of failure in the American south. You know, the part of the country which is worst in just about every category imaginable.
Couldn't have said it better kidkaos2 Oh and think. If you hate it so much down here,by all means don't visit. You won't hurt our feelings,we prefer to send yankees packing back home anyways.
Another echo chamber thread for ignorant liberals to puff up their egos by congratulating each other on how superior they are.
Its one of the most high profile games launched this year with a multi-million dollar budget! But its ok, you guys can go back to playing testicle toss and shooting varmints

No, dont worry about fixing a broken society, just kick out those who want to fix it.
It makes sense. If you played Bio Shock, it is a wonderful critic of Ayn Rand's Objectivism taken to its ultimate absurd conclusions.
