Counter-Strike: A tool of the Capitalist Oppression

Mediev (Communist Gamers) has decided that today's youth is being corrupted by the foul stench of capitalism through Counter-Strike. It's up to him to set the story straight!

"The money system is the largest peice of evidence exposing Counter-Strike as a peice of advanced capitalist propaganda. This system of murdering for cash is precisely what would be favored by the ruling class - it indoctrinates the gamer with the belief that money is more important than human lives! The money, in turn, is granted only to purchase more weapons of death and destruction, dedicated to taking the lives of more freedom fighters and capitalist shock troopers. After each round, the so called "winning team" of each battle recieves extra cash, leaving the other team sorely in need of money for more advanced weapons. This struggle could be viewed as class warfare, as the rich grow richer and the poor grow poorer, and the game focuses on the player's attempt to "win" at this struggle, seeing as how no reform (an overthrow of the existing conditions) is ever proposed."
