>Fallout is a comment that war is inevitable given basic human nature
hmm this doesn't really check out considering the cold war is entirely 1st world aggression while the 2nd world plays catchup. to say nothing of how china hasn't invaded anyone since 79 (and that was for a month)

more to the point i don't think most of /v/ has a working definition of what capitalism is. and fallout is a shitty series.

Anon, it's been 27 years since Planescape: Torment and people still regularly ask why The Nameless One stopped losing his memories with every death when the game begins.

>>719777237
Yeah I always had this impression. That isn't to say that Fallout endorsed capitalism or didn't critique it, it took jabs at it all the time of course, but in the same way it jabbed at everything regarding human nature.

>>719777760
But he kept losing his memories, but he started a new journal so he just remembered everything by reading it, he lost his earlier memories because he lost his earlier journal.............

>>719777846
>it took jabs at it all the time
Did it? I dont remember capitalism being mentioned at all in fallout 1 & 2.

And yet Todd and his dicksuckers approved the capitalism bad narrative in the show
The Bethesda canon now states that nuclear war happened to win the game of capitalism as if losing all the luxuries of it and making currency worthless makes any sense

>>719777237
>Fallout is about capitalism
I fucking hate reddit. It was never about capitalism. It's about what kind of societies will emerge out of the ashes of the old world. It explores a lot themes such as rebuilding the same ones(Democracy, socialism) we had before? What if it leads back to a nuclear war? Or should we try something new? That's the gist of it.

>>719777893
See? Another illiterate.

No, Anon, it's specificaly stated in-game, multiple times, that the TNO we play at no longer loses memories, even when dying.

>>719777939
Doesn't have to be explicitly say "capitalism bad" for that in my opinion. Just Nuka Cola being everywhere even hunderds of years later, ads, etc. I already consider those jabs.

Nah man, you're retarded.

Fallout uses a 1950s retro future asthetic, based in america. Coca-cola has advertisements and soda fountains everywhere in america in the 50s, because it was popular, you set off a nuclear apocolypse that kills most people on the planet and leaves behind 1950s style americana ruins, you're going to have coke branding everywhere, because its popular.

This has nothing to do with the capitalism is le-bad reddit arguments everyone likes to give, capitalism, or more specifically corporatism is bad when it becomes monopolistic, and abuses money and lobbying to make everyone's lives worse, not better. Saying coke is popular = bad is retarded, when the real flaws of unregulated, unrestrained capitalism is what Monsanto does with the food supply, or Nestle does with stealing water supplies to resell to people

>>719777237
>money/barter still exists in their world
>constantly buying and selling shit
>"This is a critique of capitalism"

The fuck? Who ever said that? At what point does the fallout series ever stop and say, "Hey, you. Stop selling those antlion exoskeletons. Those belong to the collective. Hail, Marx!"?

This is a non-problem.

This, it wasn't about communism either. Pre-war ideologies were largely irrelevant to the Fallout universe and so was much of the pre-war world and it only mattered to those who lived through it or a handful of highly educated people. I always hated how Bethesda made it so everyone in the 23rd century's obsessed with the 2070s and lives like the bombs never fell. It's fucking retarded.

Its more of a modern bethesda fallout issue, because the world of fallout to Emil never evolved past the 1950s even though there are p90s, desert eagles in fallout 1 and 2, so everything is a 1950s hyper capitalism to a cartoonish degree

boyarsky is the commie larper still making capitalism bad games (see outer worlds 2 trailer)

>>719777237
Gonna start by saying I don’t agree with the “capitalism is bad” interpretation, I just want to speculate on why redditors would be thinking this way. I think they’re stuck on the events leading to the war, primarily the resource wars, and how the rampant selling of various products (capitalism) accelerated the consumption of earth’s raw materials. Pre-war lore is such a small part of fallout though… everything after the bombs dropping is more of a thought experiment in how human society would function in the ABSENCE of capitalism. There aren’t any more corporations, just humans trying to survive in a lawless hellscape while also forming new societies.

>>719777525
Lack of nutrition to their brains for several generations combined with purges of anyone smart than their glorious leaders (who are all retards).

Why are communists allowed in our societies? We live in a capitalist society, so why should we allow people who want to destroy our society to live? Why don't we throw all commies and leftists out of helicopters into the ocean?

Attack another country, shoot it's people, drop bombs

China haven't drop a single bomb or shot a single bullet abroad in nearly 50 years while the west invaded, bombed and overthrew dozens upon dozens of countries, and are even now participating in a genocide, providing all the weapon and political coverage for it.

>>719777525
Nah, westoids are just brainwashed

Reminder that all you retards unironically ate up blatant fabrications about china like social credit score or winnie the pooh being banned there, and a bunch of you still believe that there is an actual genocide and slavery going on in china that just happens to have literally zero recorded proof in a smartphone filled world, while most of these same people unironically think that there is No genocide currently committed by the west supported Israel despite endless proofs.

>The Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and all those counties where the modern revisionist clique is in power have either changed colour or are in the process of doing so.

https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/works/1966/leadcliq.htm

He conspired with its accountant, cashier, chief warehouse-keeper, agronomist, general store-manager and others. Shielding each other, they "fleeced the collective farmers" and pocketed more than a hundred thousand roubles in a few years.
>On the pretext of "combating the personality cult", Khrushchov has defamed the dictatorship of the proletariat and the socialist system and thus in fact paved the way for the restoration of capitalism in the Soviet Union. In completely negating Stalin, he has in fact negated Marxism-Leninism which was upheld by Stalin and opened the floodgates for the revisionist deluge.
>Khrushchov is peddling bourgeois ideology, bourgeois liberty, equality, fraternity and humanity, inculcating bourgeois idealism and metaphysics and the reactionary ideas of bourgeois individualism, humanism and pacifism among the Soviet people, and debasing socialist morality. The rotten bourgeois culture of the West is now fashionable in the Soviet Union, and socialist culture is ostracized and attacked.
>This privileged stratum is the principal component of the bourgeoisie in the Soviet Union today and the main social basis of the revisionist Khrushchov clique. The revisionist Khrushchov clique are the political representatives of the Soviet bourgeoisie, and particularly of its privileged stratum.

You don’t communism in the left has been subverted by wokeness towards idpol and neo-liberalism. Outside of the CPGB-ML, Caleb Maupin and some other anti-revisionist figures there isn’t really any communists left. The so-called ‘communists’ in the west are woke neo-liberals who are happy to support large corporations as long as the fly the rainbow flag, back actual war criminals like Hillary Clinton or Dick Cheney as long as the say some left wing things and back actual campaigns regime change against anti-imperialist nations like Russia and the DPRK. It has been much easier to subvert communists and turn them into neo-liberals then to outright exterminate them.

We don't live in a capitalist society, at least in america we live in a republic. How you conduct yourself economically is up to you, as long as you pay your taxes. You're free to live in a commune or run your company via ownership of the workers. You'll just find out pretty quickly that without any authority, responsibility, or incentives you can't get people to do shit.

Communists in america are free-shit socialists, who think that they shouldn't have to work while their garbage still gets picked up, their toilets still flush, janitors clean the lobbies and hallways of their high rise apartments, and road workers maintain the roads and truck/train drivers maintain supply lines, they like to talk big shit, but they don't understand that a 'workers revolution' isn't going to be on the side of a starbux barista or doordash driver whining about their 200k student debts in underwater lesbian basket weaving degrees

Most Migrants only want one thing the wealth of 1st world nations but they fucking hate the culture they want to destroy everything it is because it once competed historically against their culture and they lost back then so they are still resentful because their grandpa's told them about it, their religion told them to be vindictive about it, etc, etc.

Tibet was part of China for almost 400 years and never left it not even according to the west itself who only retroactively wants to pretend that it was an independent country after the US failed to turn it into the original afghanistan by arming and training ultra-conservative separatists there, like how the US propped up the taliban and al-qaeda to overthrow socialist afghanistan and later all socialist middle eastern and north african countries, literally creating radical "islamist" terrorism that didn't exist before US operations

Capitalism is where the pursuit of wealth becomes prioritized within society. It's in the name, capital-ism. Common side effects include the corporitization of healthcare systems, prisons and lobby groups. The fallout series portrays capitalism in a kind of caricature art way. The country that fallout takes place in is (was) known for being the epitome of capitalism in its time.

China has repeatedly threatened to take Taiwan and the only reason they havent done so is because they know they would get utterly bitchslapped by America. Thats the main reason that most major 1st world countries play nice the past few decades, because Daddy America, if ever provoked to a full scale conflict, would absolutely buttfuck them. The only reason America doesnt buttfuck them anyway is because nukes exist.

Furthermore, China falls the fuck apart constantly. They cant go a century without imploding. Dont try using China as a shining beacon of peace when they have civil wars all throughout their history.

China has bigger and similarly if not more advanced military than the US has you absolute retard. It has much bigger manufacturing and already leads in RnD, not even mentioning that almost it's entire giant population actually receives basic level military training. China's military is being built for actual defense and security while US is built for invasions and oppression of the global south so they can keep stealing /buying up extremely underpriced resources and labor from them, which is the ony reason westurd "capitalists" are rich, and why 90% of the capitalist word is actually piss fucking poor

Not sure what misrepresented shit you are talking about, but you can visit china with free visa, or even register to social media sites and talk with hundreds of millions of common chinese and ask them what shit is like there. China is nowhere near as isolated as western media pretends it is, they just abuse the fact that chinese people are using their own social sites and thus they won't call out blatant bullshit being spread about their country, like social credit score

capitalism bad
capitalism stands for "for profit private ownership" according to google
it didn't invent the concept of trading or currency
when people say "capitalism bad" they are talking about rent seeking parasitic entities that spread like cancer and bring down quality of life everywhere around them
eventually these entities which flourish under the seemingly democratic countries will use underhanded tactics like lobbying, misleading, child labour, cheap labour, literal gangster, mercenaries etc. etc.
where will all this lead to? capitalism rewards bad psychotic people for being bad and psychotic. these people will eventually effectively create empires, dictatorships or failing that just bring countries into destruction.
You think you are above history and truth because your favorite politician said "amen" while saying he loves capitalism?
With malicious people you always lose.

>>719777476
There is unironically no universally agreed upon definition of capitalism, but some are more wrong than others.
>>719783542
>Capitalism is where the pursuit of wealth becomes prioritized within society
For example, if you don't make a meaningful distinction
between it and mercantilism (which it supplanted), then it's a non-starter.

West-north europe was significantly less developed than china or the middle east was a millenia ago.

Not just /v/. It feels like only a minority of people can grasp selling labor. Taking less than a 50% cut for something they had a hand in making is completely incomprehensible to them. It's beyond being a foreign concept.

It really makes me worry for the future, like the society we have now is just a freak accident given that it's only existed for a blip in human history. If so many people are hostile to the basics of its foundation, it probably won't last long.

He does until the events of the game start. He notes several times throughout, while talking with people, that this is no longer the case.

Because getting social media impressions requires good bait and pretending to be stupid or factional is good bait.

As for the image in the OP, the original Fallouts and most of Interplay's suite of games were for the most part just commentary on society from an outside perspective, allowing the player to bring the biases rather than the game itself.

The end result is a game that doesn't preach at you, which is why those games are still loved to this day by its original fans, beyond just nostalgia.
