      Honestly if Walter just flexed into being a revolutionary instead of hoarding money that story could have been bad ass.

        Such is the case for many very bad people. Even a fraction of my-hero 's hoard could actually “save humanity” by ending world hunger, which the UN tried to convince him to do when he demanded a plan to do it with a budget, received it, then ignored it.

        Every time an Epic freeze-gamer puts Cawadoody on his list of “best nonpolitical games” I apply another layer of Joker makeup. jokerfication

      They could have killed him in the movie length pilot, it woulda be fantastic, but noooo - fucking lib power fantasies “I went to school so obviously I’d be the best at crimes if I weren’t so good”

      I slightly bristle at all the “we could [insert hypothetical fascist culture con] so easy!” comments many, including myself, sometimes make as well, it’s detritus from being converted liberals. We all were, handful of possible exceptions available, it’s nothing to be ashamed of but it is something to notice and potentially change. That said it’s probably more true than the true lib examples.
