INSIDELEFT
I am a middle aged lefty Brit who likes video games, sci fi, fantasy and weird stuff.
And...I think about stuff too much.
I like to look at media and interrogate it for it's themes, biased and ideologies.
I like to extrapolate out how a certain game, book or TV show might be used to explain political or sociological theory...or just talk about why I have enjoyed something.
The subject of world-building is a particular favourite of mine.
What does a fictional world tell us about how it all works, and the mind and intentions of it's creator?
join me as I try to get better at this YouTube stuff, and talk about...mostly utter nonsense...but with good intent :)
