• Bioshock Infinite/Irrational/2k

Bioshock is possibly my favorite video game franchise precisely because of the political satire in each of its iterations. The latest release, Bioshock Infinite, takes place in the city of Columbia where people worship the Founding Fathers as gods, vilify Lincoln for freeing the slaves and ooze racism from every pore. So of course a Tea Party group posted the above image from a mural in Columbia on its Facebook page:

Right-wing group The National Liberty Foundation, a Florida-based political collective associated with the conservative Tea Party, is posting anti-immigration propaganda from Bioshock Infinite, originally designed to satirize real-world conservative politics.

Well done. (more here.)
