I see a Helldiver I up vote.

For Liberty!

But on a serious note, something as obvious as "Managed Democracy" and quitting your job by signing up for "Early Biovat Reprocessing" and the characters literally saying things like "HELLDIVERS NEVER DIE!" Before being obliterated by a 380? It's satire. Satire is funny. Like hahaha look at stupid Facist regime, I'll role play along to get into the mood of the game because the idea is so fucking dumb it's funny with amazing gameplay.

It's willful ignorance at some point. I don't think media literacy has much to do with it. It's simply listening for what they want to hear, then ignoring the rest, just as real facists desire.
