My point is everything is political, you don't have to see political standpoint in things, but that doesn't mean it isn't there.
If that’s what you meant with your original comment then I deeply regret engaging with this at all 🤣
Have a nice day.
OP is not exactly coming up with good examples, but I think the point is you can analyse anything and claim that there is some hidden political message, even if it was not intended by the developers. Even Gilgamesh, one of the oldest text ever found, has scholars discussing gender and sexuality. I don’t think Gilgamesh and Enkidus relationship was considered political at the time the story was written down, but in a new context and a new political landscape it can suddenly be political.

Oh you didn't perceive the irony, didn't you?
