:che-smile: it's not my fault if reality is Marxist

I have been scrolling the vic 3 sub all day lol

this isn’t a political statement but this game has overrepresented marxism and extreme left views and ideas within the society it simulates. there was not a single communist country established for around 4/5ths of the game’s time frame, and yet you can do it and become a communist state with minimal opposition in quite a few countries thanks in part to random dice rolls.

i fear that the V3 may have a small case of alt-history-itis. they probably got it from hoi4

marxist alt history, in my Industrial revolution grand stategy game?? :confusion:

This guy is very wrong, but in another thread I saw someone bring up how over-represented middle-class supporters of industrialists and Intelligentsia are, and they correctly point out that there isn't enough pop support for the clergy/devout and petite bourgeoisie which contributes to some other complaints I've seen here on hexbear about there not really being much militant opposition to revolution.

There is some sort of overflow error where if you have like a bazillion trade Unionist they have negative clout or something lmao
