Which doesn't really make sense given how jingoistic and rabidly anticommunist the pre war 1950s United States is depicted as being.
Why would such a country ever end racial segregation, let alone permit LGBT acceptance? That would require a massive cultural shift, that is worth at least an entire episode of its own. Without such an explanation it just doesn't really make sense
The show is fake and made up, and so are the games, obviously. But the racial and sexual acceptance depicted doesn't really make sense. Obviously there's no problem in depicted characters that aren't cishet white men. But why would such characters ever be treated as equal in such a fascist depiction of the United States?
