About Aerannis being about a “post-feminist dystopia”

I’ve seen some chatter about this so I think it’s good to address it.

I’m using “post-feminist” to mean that the government within this universe claims that feminism’s end goals have been attained and everybody is equal and happy and so there’s no more need for feminism. That is, of course, not true and so the government hires people to take out anyone who says otherwise. The government is all about labeling themselves as “feminist” rather than actually making any efforts to improve the situation for the citizens. It’s “feminist” in the same sense that China’s “communist”–maybe it was at some point, but not anymore.

“Dystopia” is used to show that the society is fucked up because people who speak up are being killed yet everything has an outward appearance of being fine.

The game is not anti-feminist.
