Opiates of the masses/10

Does the mushroom kingdom even have an official religion? They seem completely secular.

>Why yes I'm 13 years old

Christianity was the religion of The Legend of Zelda until Ocarina of Time.

Not just from the cross on his shield, but also the fact that Zelda is kept safe from Ganon initially in a church with a single old priest and that Link performs the Sign of the Cross when he prays.

>>715244275
Also, the Magic Book was called the "Bible" in the original FDS release of Zelda 1 and there are a few artworks which blatantly depict Link before Jesus Christ on the Cross.

I don't really care for the guy, but marxists tend to ignore the fact that when he said it's the "opiate of the masses" he didn't mean it in the sense of recreational drug use, but rather something more in line with its medicinal use in his time, as in a drug used for pain relief.

>>715245830
You got a hecking peer reviewed study to back your opinion, bucko?

>>715245830
>as in a drug used for pain relief.
right, it makes you feel better but praying will not solve a broken leg.

All Abrahamic religions has been a bane of humanity since 0 AD. So many wars, deaths, and entire countries eradicated all due to these 3 religions.

Now on the flip side one could argue that before the invention of democracy and governments by Romans when everything was a feudal kingship or tribes. Religion whether its a guy who throws thunderbolts or dude in the clouds bringing the 10 plagues was the only form of law and order these primitive minds believed in to keep order. Our primitive screw head ancestors needed a booming voice in the clouds saying that killing, stealing and raping everything in sight is a one way ticket to hell.

I'm guessing he's "raised Catholic, non-practicing Christian".

Show me a Jewish pizzeria. Show me a falafel stand that serves marinara.

I just had to Google it to see that's actually a thing.

>>715247027
Yeah you never see atheist countries like China or the USSR or Japan committing atrocities.

Mario doesn't practice any of that heathen jap shit

Yeah, it's totally capitalism's fault.

Why would someone create an infographic that applies to the world and not a specific country?

Most of that shit happens in Africa. Do they really want money to go there instead of home?

i doubt your claim (you're going off of country titles as if that means anything lol) i wonder why countries that have been fucked over my capitalism would try to vote in (nominally) socialist candidates. i can't imagine why. too bad when they do, they just get sabotaged

>>715249103
rich countries like the EU and 'murica extract wealth from africa and a fraction of a percent returns as "aid", and any attempt at collectivism gets stamped out with coups, intelligence campaigns, assassinations, etc. so it's fair to attribute it to the dominant economic system that keeps those countries in poverty. yeah.

Do these armchair communist realize none of their favorite video games and movies would exist without capitalist dog money funding development?

Any video game, television, art, etc under USSR has to be for the benefit of the Union and therefore either be heavily censored to shit or altered to the point it looks nothing like the original.

Capitalism is a double edge sword, it brings out the best and brightest in our higher IQ beings but it also brings out the humanity's baser evil instincts.

Anon, you haven't watched any Soviet film or television. Stop acting like an expert about shit you know nothing about. Soviet film industry was incredible.

But communist countries also invade and exploit other countries for resources.

>>715249984
I'm no film aficionado so i can't comment on gems and accolades of the USSR created films

Since this is a video game thread the only USSR game that's globally recognized is Tetris and it was effort of a capitalist businessman who had to claw it out of the USSR hands for the world to enjoy (see Tetris movie)

>>715249984
By threatening to kill people if they don't do what you tell them. That is the lowest form of morality.

>>715250358
That's all government. All authority is backed up by "if you don't do this I can kill you".

No it's not. Governments killing citizens is abnormal and bad.

The USSR was mishandled by revisionist leaders by the time technology for vidya was coming around; remember that the US finally succeeded in dismantling the union in 1991. Still the USSR had computers so they would have had a big vidya scene were it not for the cold war.
Check out some Chinese vidya.

If the state can't do that last line, the criminal gets away, and other criminals learn they can get away if they also do the second to last line.

Now you're just getting into speculative man in high castle alternative history terrority with what could've been USSR vidya game industry.

As for the chinese Vidya it only became a thing in the last 5 years when China went full capitalist wearing a fake communist hat.

No, it only started being scaled up and exported. Chinese indie scene has existed since the 90s.

They are socialist.

you mean Yahweh is the bane of humanity, that's the jewish forskin eating god they all worship knowingly or unknowingly

None of you Tankies have the balls to attack homosexuality like the USSR did.

>>715251003
I don't disagree. They should go to jail. But if they somehow use enough force that they become a threat to the person who would put them in jail, the state needs to have more force at the ready so that they always win. Having a monopoly on force is part of the whole point of a state.

Communism only makes sense from the critics point of view. From the communist point of view it makes zero sense, since it changes completely with every iteration. Marx said Communism was a natural state that would follow the inevitable collapse of Capitalism. When that didn't happen, Lenin said Communism will be imposed by popular uprising, because naturally everyone would want it. When that didn't happen, and people actually cared about their countries and culture, Communism became about MAKING Capitalism collapse, and installing Communism via military coup, which is the only method that's ever worked.
Then it said homosexuality is bad, and then it said homosexuality is good, then it said Africans are a lesser people, then it said they are a noble people. They change on a dime as long as it serves their purpose of installing their broken system that nobody wants and doesn't work, and hence need total societal breakdown in order to have a chance of being imposed, via military coup as per usual. And meanwhile, just keep repeating the lie that it's in any way a functional, successful, or desirable system.

You have an ulterior motive. Prove me wrong by adding a white person category.
