Bob being excited about a dang, dirty FPS game...mostly because he can kill Southern Republicans. Never change, fat man.

Bob is living proof media needs "sympathetic" villains.
He was raised on media that almost exclusively had conflicts represented as black and white battles of objective good and objective evil with no nuance (I.E. Super Mario Bros) when life, as normal humans know, isn't so simple.
I hope Far Cry 5 has nuance, America desperately needs entertainment that isn't blatantly saying "republicans are evil".

And look where that insultingly simple view of morality got him: Using dog whistles like "fight" and "beatdown" where he really means "shoot" and "kill" just because it's people he doesn't like.
 
Moviebob is a tough cookie. On one hand, he can be an ultra leftist spouting talking points that the Obama Administration would use. On the other hand, he makes certain points that aren't left-wing enough. Bob is a man of contradictions and that has been his schtick for 6 or more years.
 
Weirdly enough this isn't new. A decade ago, Tony Blair found himself under similar criticism. His media men pressured him to buy Gordon Brown a "Mr Whippy" ice cream cone as a sign of political cooperation. Blair didn't want ice cream; he thought the idea was stupid. But the media guys kept pressing him, but warned him not to get a "chocolate log" in his cone because it'd make him look greedy. Out of spite and annoyance, Blair got himself a chocolate log. The end result was this awkward photo:

The press had a lot of fun with this. Note the chocolate log in Blair's ice cream.

Chocolate log? That's a flake mate

Add in a bunch of other elements like eugenics, conspiracy theories, objectivism and diabetes and hit puree.

Expecting an Ubisoft game to have nuance and not be another copy/paste job? Come now, you know what's more likely here.

Their isnt really anything he does which actually qualifies as left wing. He really hates the right but when you look at his beliefs the only way you'd mistake him for left is if the only media you digested was anne coulter.

Pagan Min was a surprisingly nuanced (and entertaining) villain, and saved FC4 from being just another open-world shoot-em-up-with-vague-justifications. I'd actually love it if FC5 actually had the survivalist Evangelicals to have a complex characterization (just to see Bob blow his top that someone dares to have empathy for those dirty Rethuglican jerks!)

Left or right, people like Bob always fantasize about a world purged of their ideological "enemies."
 
I like how he justifies his hatred of Republicans by downplaying their actual numbers, as if to say that because they're the minority they deserve to be shit on. Which is a pretty bigoted way of thinking if you think about it.

It also implies that the other 70-75% of the country is Democrat, when really it's more like 25-30% (just like Republicans, a percentage point or three higher), with everyone else saying fuck these idiots or simply not giving a shit.
