The game is mocking all the political ideologies and many other aspects of current society. It is a satire.

My understanding (without having played the game) is that you choose an ideology for your character (equivalent to fascist, communist, capitalist or centrist) and whichever of those you chose, it satirizes you for it by making you an absurd parody of whichever was your chosen ideology. So perhaps the only way to not "feel mocked" personally is to play through using an ideology you don't actually hold? Or, try not take it personally. But, I admit, your reaction makes me want to actually play it next to test my ideological sensitivity.

> its fans told me that if I liked it and wasn't a Communist, I was missing the point that it was mocking me. As a communist who loves DE: The game mocks you even If you are any flavour of socialist/communist, and I don't think this is at odds with liking the game.
