The episode of The Worst of All Possible Worlds podcast about The Last of Us 2 goes into a ton of depth on this, if you’re interested.
But basically Neil Druckman is a massive Zionist, and his conception of Israeli/Palestine dynamics played a very strong role in the game’s conception of human nature, and how people relate to one another.
honest question - what has Druckman said that makes him a “massive Zionist”? (I don’t know anything about the guy other than he was born in the occupied west bank* and lived there as a young child)
*edit: actually he was born in Tel Aviv and his family moved to the west bank, not that it makes much of a difference
Maybe I’m just media illiterate, but I feel like this is a take that needs to some explanation.
Posted above now that I’ve woken up from a nap.
Thanks. Haven’t watched season 2 yet but I’ll bear this in mind if I ever get around to it.

Horrid take. Like genuinely racist to suggest that having a Jewish name makes him a Zionist.
Even if he is a zionist, this isn’t the line of argument you should be taking.
obviously I’m aware that he is not Palestinian and that he was born in a settler-colonialist entity. I asked about his beliefs
That implies very little of what is being claimed, c’mon now
