The whole point of educating people is that they'll start questioning everything and in that way, find something new in the old patterns of old, and not repeat them for centuries.
And games are good when they present something original or old in a refreshing new way. Relating gamer into the game can be done in various different ways, myths, rolemodels and whatnot just being single facet.
The exact number of deaths that have died under communist regimes isn't exactly known either, wikipedia asserts that estimates range from 23 to 109 millions, while European Union holds that 91 millions is the correct number.
Really, in my point of view, it's a bad habit to label communism as the source of all evil, just like it's bad habit to label Islam as the source of all evil in the current day. It echos from Reagan's "Good (us) vs Bad (them)" propaganda which has gotten popular in the Bush regimen, which is just load of bullshit. Not that I'm defending USSR and its actions, I'm merely trying to point out that yes, there are monsters on both sides.
There's real wars, massacres and genocides going on Africa and how much Bush is willing to devote time there... none! Because they aren't any direct threat or use to US of A. And that's it.
I didn't know 100 million was that a lot compared to the men USSR lost in the second World War II, which was the only reason that Allies even won the damn thing. Or that US single handedly has killed millions or caused the death of millions with the use of Atom bombs, "pre-emptive wars", the whole middle-east campaigns and in general, being such a good role model for the rest of the world.
Communism has its faults, and it has been severely abused. And I'm thinking Chavez, as are most of the world dictators by the way, a nationalist more than a communist, aiming to promote Venezuela and fight off against US influence. And abuse the poor people of his country in the process.
And propaganda in video games is ages old thing, just look at America's Army and all the FPS games.
