These are what people should be doing in real life, too. The FF games aren't telling people to go as far as to become revolutionaries, but we shouldn't be taking things at face value. Question the reason why your government made this decision. Question the reason behind this or that war. Come to your own stance on issues after seeing both sides of a story.
XII and XIII also wen that angle. It probably goes as far back as VII
