No one is "bringing" communism "into this." The point of the thread is that Larian may have communist business partners. If true, that will tarnish the studio's reputation.
Fair, "bringing" was probably the wrong word because, sure, Larian does technically seem have a communist business partner. And yes, some people will dislike that association purely because of the word "communism."

But in the phrase "Larian may be partnered with Tencent, a big company owned by the Chinese Communist Government," the words "big company" and "government" (specifically, the authoritarian nature of said government) are by far the most important. So I suppose it would have been better so say let's not *focus* on communism or race, but instead on the more important things, some of which (cough cough EA, Activision, Ubisoft) have been proven to have disastrous effects on small studios.

That's good.
