Underlegislation leads to a bloated, extortionate upper crust that weilds disproportionate power over those who rely on said financial system. There is a balance, and the problem you outline is the lesser of the two extremes.

Helldivers 2 is 25-35 on medium and smooth. Very little stuttering.

That mentality is surely broader than fascism itself. You see it in any hypernationalist state. Rome had "the barbarians." The British Empire had "the savages." Nazi Germany had "the jews." There is always an "other" when the state needs it. Unless you're painting a broader form of fascism, perhaps.

That's what you're hung up on? There's a whole subgenre of sharks with tits.

There's an art to it. I've read books where the villain wins only for it to be revealed that the protagonist was fighting for the wrong side. The only one who's title comes to mind is Columbus Day, where humans team up with aliens to fight other aliens that invade earth, only to realize that they joined the "fascist-leaning" side of the conflict as a species-wide pawn.

Let's take a page from Helldivers and call it "Managed Capitalism." Surely far better than rootstock /s

It's not a bad counterargument to that claim, we've just moved so far past that into the cost-benefit-analysis stage. The cost to keep the 2nd ammendment as it is is pretty fucking high.

It's cheaper than healthcare :')

Maybe publishing houses will never get the memo, but the Helldivers team knew to make a fun game first, and THEN added amazing graphics. If the market prooves they prefer that dev cycle ethos, it will bring change.
