It blows my mind that a large enough % of the population is so thick that we are still having to explain the objection to people not even attempting to understand.

Media having politically themed stories? No problem at all.

Media existing solely to preach your *REAL WORLD* political ideology and dishonestly encroach upon escapism? You are Velma. No one likes you.

The term I gave to this phenomenon is "cultural parasitism." They know their ideas cannot survive on their own, they require an existing and popular host medium that they can work their way into behind the scenes and slowly change from works of fiction, to works of political propaganda. 

I'll put it another way because it's obvious that same % of people didn't follow any of that; No one has a problem with political narratives or settings so long as you aren't trying to push **your** real world political values onto people. 

Example; everyone loves The Expanse. It has a wonderful story and some political thrill between the dystopian UN controlled earth, the collectivist Mars Republic, and the extremely tribal Belters. They use real world names, locations, organizations and ideologies as part of the story and setting, not as **the goal** of the story. The intention is to have a believable, grounded narrative that explores complicated topics in a way that's not trying to tell the audience, "**our answer is the correct one.**" 

Now contrast that with velma, where the writing of every single scene begins and ends with the intention of pushing their identitarian nonsense, and because they believe themselves so uniquely morally correct irl, any and all criticism *must* then be bigotry. That's how you can always tell if a show/film/game is honestly trying to present a complicated story, or if they are engaging in cultural parasitism. Look for how they respond to valid criticism.
