So many franchises are getting mixed up in politics. Trying to please everyone when all they’re doing (in my opinion, what I say is no facts by any means) is making things worse. Halo doesn’t get involved with all this craziness going around. Halo just stays Halo. Just being themselves. And for that I’m thankful.
I’m not here trying to cause a debate. I just want to say I’m happy that Halo is Halo.
Being set 500 years in the future definitely makes it easier. But in very small ways, Halo has had some politics. Innies are fiercely independent libertarians trying to overthrow or at least gain independence from a fascist government. So in general I agree with you to the extent that Halo has never leaned into current political discussions. But if you look for politics anywhere in life or games, you will find it.
