A name to rally behind is good, regardless of if it is Luigi or The Adjuster

Beautiful

Sure. But my whole point is that we’re headed in that direction.

No, there was a lot more that came of this (unless you’re specifically referencing the snitching part).

• It’s made business execs afraid.
• It’s shown the working class how to have solidarity.
• It’s been a rallying cry for how much the people hare the current system.
• It’s given us a martyr.
• It’s taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.

And I’m sure there’s more.

There’s 335 million people in this country, and depending on estimates there are enough guns for every man, woman, and child to have more than one gun.

We’re may not yet be at the point where enough people have their backs against the wall to do something, but there is plenty of people and guns for it. And many of us will soon find ourselves with our backs against the wall when the effects of climate change start really fucking people over with job loss, home loss, crop failure, and mass migration.

There’s that, and the fact that this month just taught the would be school shooters that they’ll get lots of positive attention for redirecting their targets towards those deserving. They’ll get labeled a folk hero, they’ll have people trying to send them money for their legal defense fund, they’ll get their name in the history books. They’ll get everything they ever wanted out of their act of violence.

The material conditions have not changed, and they’re likely to change for the worse. That’s bad news for any business exec who wants to keep their head on their shoulders.

It’s gonna take more than one ceo for them to learn.

Four lil, five lil board members…

I love to see this

We need doctors. We don’t need the rich.

The working class must fight back.

I think you’ve misunderstood. I’m talking about the choice that people make when these effects start happening, not a choice now. Of course most people aren’t opting to get violent yet, there backs aren’t yet against the wall.

It very well could be the rest of your life in both cases.

For now. Give it a few decades when the effects of climate change start forcing people out of their homes, cause widespread crop failure, kill thousands with heatwaves and storms, etc.

If you’re choice is between

1. losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets

Or

2. losing your home, starving to death, or in some way dying in the streets after holding those responsible to account a la the adjuster

More and more people will choose option 2.

They also aren’t helpful against improvised explosive drones.

That’s fair. Though there was still a certain glee he had about it. Specifically in twisting Sisko’s arm into shady actions, and Sisko’s implicit agreement.

Who could have seen this coming

Free Luigi

Garak assassinated a diplomat to a highly aggressive foreign power for the sake of saving lives in a war. Garak would absolutely value Luigi as a hero, though it would be through plausibly deniable language. And he’d be right in both cases.

Yes, with the caveat that it will need to be coupled with a massive pendulum swing in favor of workers rights.

Sounds like we need more adjustment.
