Is there a way to avoid Tatsumaki dying

Ok. I know the point of Laura is supposed to be an idiot, but you know what? She is based AF, the smartest girl in the game, and I want more of her. (Except for that stuff about Jews, but I can fix her) I want a storyline where the MC helps her with her revolution and gives her the son she wants, and together we show the future the glory of communism! Also, them ducks had it coming. And her rainwater selling. Not the brightest thing to sell, but she has the idea right. Rather than exploiting other people's labor to get the rainwater, she collects it herself AND tries to sell it herself. I doubt this was intentional, but this is truly what Communism is meant to be: you are entitled to the fruits of your labor and your labor alone; if the labor was done by other people, then hands off the profits!

She's like the perfect woman. We the people demand more of her!

I'm pleasantly surprised this game survived the purge. Like it checks almost all the boxes for things Collective Shout wanted removed. How'd y'all do it?

Loved the ending. Definitely glad y'all cut back on the culture war references after part one cause those were just as obnoxious as when the other side brute forces their gripes into media. 

Having finished chapter 2, I must say this is a great game so far. The culture war references are pretty annoying, but fortunately, they become much less frequent by the later half of chapter 1 and were barely in chapter 2.  Other than the occasional cringe forcing me right out of the story and back into the reality where people unironically care one way or the other about things like woke movies, the characters are likable and I'm just as interested in where the story goes as I am to see more sex scenes.

Culture war stuff is just cringe politics.  Like 5 years ago I'd have probably found the little jabs at identity politics funny, but 5 years ago was a time when most people who made fun of those things weren't just as insane as the more radical pushers of identity politics.  The game's fun though, I just don't much care to be reminded that the culture war is still a thing people unironically care enough about to reference in media. Not offended or anything just mildly annoyed.

Games fun enough, but the political statements are so cringy. Like it's not the fact that it's left-wing politics that makes woke movies hard to enjoy, it's the fact that the politics are blatant and unimportant to the story. Blatant political agendas for no good reason are equally annoying when they're anti-woke.
