    I originally interpreted it the way you’re saying… I think it’s actually worse, I think they deliberately put it out to shit on the idea of socialism by setting up the rules in a way that makes it look like a bad idea.

    There are games that are genuinely designed to teach socialism. Class Struggle is one. Another was… well, The Landlord’s Game.

      And The Landlord’s Game being plagiarized by capitalists and turned into one of the biggest if not the biggest moneymaking board game of all time is some horrible fucking irony. But not surprising in our society.
