Not just the genre of fantasy, or any one genre of media for that matter. All narrative-oriented phenomena are the manifest arms of ideology: novels, movies, games, religion, advertisements, propaganda, etc. Their actual form is not what is important, but more how they fit into the bigger picture of social communication -- like how the same concept can be indicated with many different words within a language and across languages.
