Talk:The Devil/@comment-31809769-20171128181623

Hear me out on this: What does the devil actually do? He offers a selection of services and wares in exchange for the soul of the buyer. Now, he is not a criminal. He doesn't cheat or commit a fraud deal. Every single one of his customers gets exactly what he asks for and is fully aware of the nature of their business arrangement. In Cuphead, the devil is the ultimate destilled version of a capitalist, and the game is very clearly trying to make us hate the devil and make us sympathize with Cuphead and Mugman, the "victims" of the devil, even though the devil actually offers them an oppertunity to shrinken their debt by working for him.

Cuphead and Mugman are clearly supposed to be the poor small working men of the lower class, victims of capitalism and heroes of communism. They are in fact the evil ones, as they cause chaos in the establishments of the devil, biting the hand that gave them an undeserved second chance. At the end of the game, they pardon the legitimate debts of all the bosses. Somehow for both communists and the main characters in Cuphead, a private financial transaction between two consenting parties is something that is evil.

Do not believe Cuphead's lies, for the devil is just a hard-working business man, while Cuphead is a spineless coward that does not stand up to his own mistakes. Hell, if I were in Cuphead's situation, I would have to decline the devil's offer and just give him my soul, for that is what we both agreed on in our deal.

God I hate communism so much.
