Unsubstantaited assertion.
Do you have any evidence for that?
Asserted, but not substantiated. Therefore dismissed.
Please name them.
Civilization was designed?
That seems as accurate a characterization as saying biological life was designed. But, regardless, the picture you paint does not adequately describes contemporary WEIRD - Western Educated Industrialized Rich Democracies.
It is false that all art is political, that art is intrinsically pollical, unless you are willing to water down the term political to homeopathic levels. However, I am not going to make the philosophical case here. You used "should", which suggests a sense of moral obligation. Please make the moral case why so-called progressive issues should be reflected in videogames.
Would that be your opinion or an object assessment of the matter?
Please show the groups you are referring to are opproseed in contemporary WEIRD societies.
To me this reads as incitement for real-life manifestos to be stealthy inserted into videogames. A form of ideological product placement, if you will. Let me be clear: creators have complete sovereignty over their IPs. If they want to use them as vehicles for their real-life agendas, let them go for it. It's their game. They need not my permission. But they'd be well-advised to expect negative reactions from those who oppose those ideas, though.
Demonstrably false. See below.
But that's not the intersectional claim. As the term implies, groups, not classes, which is aMarxism term (related to the role in production each occupies), get superimposed, intersected and then ranked according to how oppressed they are thought to be. Intersectional thought does not disregard class as a causal and analytical dimension, but rather intersects it with gender, race and, increasingly, sexual identity and other dimensions.
From a Marxist point of view, intersectionality may fail to give class its due centrality. But you are wrong in identifying leftism with Marxism. The latter is a subset of the former. Even when Marx was alive, his ideas were only a subset of left-wing politics. As for Leninism, it ranks as one among several strands of Marxism. In the far-left end of the spectrum alone, there are many non-Marxist strands which, naturally, do not adopt the Marxist view that class struggle is the engine of history.
In this regard, it's not a misrepresentation. Intersectionality belongs firmly to the left. One of the hallmarks it shares with Marxism is that it views capitalist liberal societies as its target.
That's patently false. Whenever identity politics partisans get an open mic they hardly ever fail to wax poetic on how evil capitalism is. They crave that conversation. Of course, they always loose the argument.
Capitalism is the best system, as copious empirical evidence has been showing on a hourly basis for almost two centuries now.
The suggestion that no one is raising the issue of whether caopitalism is the right system for humankind or not is flies in the face of contemporary political debate.
