'Antifa' the Video Game Wants to Teach Gamers About Antifascism

Pretty cool that the game consists of killing caricatures of the working class they want to control. At least they're being honest.

(also, LOL that the author of Andy Capp is using a character that's depicted comically as a wife beater for political purposes)
"This lazy, uneducated, drunken wife beater opposes Brexit, therefore you should too!"
 
That Youtube video is already ratio'd, hahahahahaha:

That sure is a low view count for a two-month old video.
 
I just re-read the article and I was wondering, what does this game actually teach you about Anti-Fascism? By the looks of it, it's just more ORANGE MAN BAD screeching with no attempt to actually articulate it's point. It doesn't explore the history of the movement, explain the origins or key points of fascism and why they should be opposed, nor does it make any kind of argument. It's just racism=bad, Drumpf=bad, kill Drumpf.

This isn't an introduction to Antifa at all. It has nothing to teach. It's just about a petty, childish revenge fantasy by someone who wants to feel tough but is a 60kg soy-latte sipping nobody in real life.

Pretty sure anyone under the age of 40 is only familiar with Andy Capp as the mascot of that brand of hot chips that sits at the top of the vending machine but you've never seen anyone actually order it.
 
Didn't a far-superior Antifa-esque game exist on the Playstation 2 in the form of State of Emergency, made around 18 years ago?

EDIT:

Suddenly I have a hankering to dig out a PS2 and play me some State Of Emergency...


Dang, @CWCissey beat me to mentioning State of Emergency.
 
Games are not supposed to be educational, so that's already a big strike against it.

Nah. I have a lot of fond memories playing the Carmen Sandiego games with my mom. It was an ingenious way to get me to learn geography and history.

I also learned things from the most unlikely of games. Ninja Gaiden taught me about the existence of the CIA (seriously) and that they do very shady stuff. In my adult years, I would come to understand that they are evil because they employ glow in the dark niggers.

(Pictured: A glow in the dark CIA nigger).

Yep. It's like the video game version of this:

That was my first thought exactly, I had to look it up. I was totally unaware Andy Capp was its own comic strip unrelated to the fry\chip things.
