      IIRC Robin Hood never killed anyone, and Luigi didn’t steal anything or give anything away…

        There’s not really a single robin hood canon, some versions of him are quite violent, others he avoids killing. All depends on who was telling the story and when.

        The earliest tales of Robin Hood had him brutally murdering people for kind of no reason.

      Less Robin Hood. More John Brown.

      I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood. I had, as I now think vainly, flattered myself that without very much bloodshed it might be done.

      ~ Charlestown, Virginia Dec 2, 1859

        And we still screwed it up and let the south keep slavery for 100 years just changing the name to Jim Crow.

        And now they’ve finally won their civil war, segregation academies are coming back and everything .

      Robin Hood only took money from the rich. Luigi took life (allegedly), and scared the other rich folks enough to allow some life (healthcare) for the plebs for some short time.

      He needs to be assassinated, it’s their only hope of maintaining terror.

      If he gets through a trial the chances of a hung jury are pretty high, and that’s proof the system isn’t invincible.

    The elite should rightly be terrified, and the only outcome that protects them is to drop the illusion of equality and create “green zones” where they are safe, like in other third world countries.
