Are the goddeses fascist?

[Hyuu62772]

It seems that the democracy doesn't exist in gameindustry and the goddeses have absolute power over their countries and the folks have to pray and obey them blindly

[Ztarman]

Not the case. In fact citizens can transfer to other nations freely and some NPC's will mention that they like Goddesses from rival nations.

Theocracy is not the same as facism. At all.

Following the games references, -of course- based on the console wars, the political system resembles an open-market economy. The citizens are costumers, the cities/nations are the companies and the goddesses seem to resemble the product/legacy (consoles). All of this is balanced by the shares/popularity (elections), the shares can be affected by pleasing the citizens (guild). You can say this is a democracy, only thing needed is a judicial system, I think the basilicoms fill that role here.

There is rivalry between the nations, but none of them use fascism. You can say the bad guys in the games trying to corrupt the system using different (fascist) tactics (pirate hardware, war etc.), and the goddesses collectively oppose them.

It is theocracy: a form of government in which a deity is the source from which all authority derives.

I see, but all of the nations are a kind of imperialist, the main goal of the goddesses in the console war is a supremacy all over gameindustry. The main objective of arfoire is a more just world where everyone, not necessary a goddess can govern in gamindustry, So it seems that the goddesses are against any opposition that could change the current form of goverment. A little fascist, in my opinion.

The only actual war that was going on were fought by the goddesses themselves in fair combat far away from the nations so the citizens will be unaffected unlike IRL as you know where rulers sit FAR behind the lines in utmost safety sending countless people to death and putting all the burdens to the commonfolk.
They were led to believe by Arfoire that they must defeat the others to become True Goddess.

Arfoire's objective was simply amassing power and world destruction.

If anything, it's a Monarchy circa England in early 1920s. You have your royal (Presiding Goddess), the Prime Minister (Oracle), the basilicom acts like the bureaucracy as well as sort of like a church Archbishop in a way and the Guild is like a DIY Scotland Yard/MI6.

Though are we really trying to compare a game about anime girl game consoles to RL? Is this what the net has become?

well, that's the closest thing that could describe the political system in gameindustry


I just was wondering and yeah, maybe it's bad to compare an anime girls game not supposed to be taken seriously with the real life politics.

So... lastation is Playstation...
leanbox is Xbox...
And I think Blanc is.... Nintendo? I think?

This is going straight from some lore giveaways and guesstimation, don't take my word for it.
It would seem highly probably that would be the case for each CPU and such. IRL politics aside
