You appear to be taking any sort of interpretation one can make regarding a game and then calling it propaganda
Which is not useful
The later ME games had some shit in them I would call minor propaganda
Which is why I suggested it this way.
unintentional
Imo the ass creed american revolution edition was propagandist as fuck
Okay you know what game I was gonna put forward as "propaganda"?
A) that's not a thing
B) you undermine the actual term by misusing it
Or propagandaistic?
you could say any game with a morality system is propaganda then.
Oh, I thought of a good game that is propaganda: Genital Jousting
Any game that does not have morality choices
Not even joking, gimme a second
And pushes the idea that the character is you.
i cant think of a word, its a motorized vehicle but with only 2 wheels
better not use the term motorized vehicle though, im undermining the term

```we like to think of the game as a trojan horse - a way to deliver a sex positive message to an audience that might never get to hear it otherwise. We have feelings to explore, and things to say, and by wrapping them in a big joke, we're hoping to sneak some of our ideas past the watchful gaze of unsuspecting cis-het dudes.```
You'd better call it a car because that's easier
That sounds like propaganda to me
Or a helicopter
i could be wrong
Thatathejoke
You wouldn't call a motorcycle a car
So don't call games with thematic components propaganda
i am looking for a word, its like a motorcycle, but it has 4 wheels and puts you into a giant metal and glass container to carry you around in
better not use the term motorcycle though, might undermine the term
Yes, don't.
Are you playing limbo with the point right now?
hold on
Use your words to describe the concept if no word exists specifically to describe it. We have a robust language, so use it to its fullest extent.
good lord this is stupid, I'm done here and going to ~~kill some villain in a game~~ subject myself to propaganda
doesn't something being unintentional mean it cannot be propaganda? as part of the definition of propaganda is that it is done intentionally.
Yes
But Genital Jousting is propaganda for sure.
```
Genital Jousting is largely about disarming masculinity. In a patriarchal society, penises are associated with power. They are considered the dominant sexual organ. But in Genital Jousting, they are often the butt of the joke```
That's what I've been saying, @Grenade123
unintentionally intentional
I make funny penis game heehee to save the world from toxic masculinity
you can start with term A, which has mandetory connotations 1 and 2 and 3, and say that in stead of connotation 2 you actually mean connotation 2*, which changes term A to what you do mean, without damaging anything about term A, as you just tried to describe a word you didnt know a word for
however, if someone is so brand-washed, all they know is propaganda, can they make propaganda without intentionally meaning to do so?
You can't use the antithesis of a thing to directly describe a thing
