The edge
I don't understand why this is a negative thing, especially considering that hexbear is fundamentally about taking an edgy approach to class issues. And presumably we don't have a problem with that
Being edgy is making a game about fun little creatures you can actually enslave and make shoot one another. When we say Warren Buffett is a ghoul who should be buried in a pit, that's not edgy because he probably deserves worse.
edge isn't funny. we like laughing at things. grimdark grim grim dark dark is just exhausting.
We're not Marxists because Marx was edgy, we are Marxists because he was correct.
