I feel like I read somewhere on Hexbear that the form that the decay of empire will take from within the beast’s belly is, like, ideologically incoherent nimrods committing random acts of violence against the ruling class… I wonder how the person who wrote that feels now!
It’s disappointing to find out that this once-enigmatic figure with all the trappings of a folk hero, who had so many people mesmerized for days with his apparent charisma and the catharsis he provided, is… Well, this chump. I almost want to say that this is “not canon”!

The enigma was central to the folk hero aspect. Not having any details on the guy made it easy to project our frustrations onto him. It was kind of inevitable that him becoming an actual person would break the spell.
Yeah

I’m pretty sure I’ve expressed similar sentiments to this before on here, but I won’t claim to be the originator of it. I’m pretty sure it comes from Christman’s analysis.
I have never believed in any kind of coherent anti-establishment political movement willing to actively commit effective violence coming out of the U.S. any time soon.

Not with that attitude!

The best one could hope for is a movement for separatism from the US (and thus… not really the US…)
It will happen against the ruling class more but only because random acts of violence will be happening more generally.

Yeah if this is the guy, it really shows that there’s a deep resentment for the ruling class among all political affiliations. Some of them are extremely confused and have a bunch of really bad and backwards ideas, but underneath their confusion is someone who has lots of potential.
Just gotta purge the brain worms.

Proof Ivy Leagues don’t teach you shit. As funny as the monopoly money in a bag was I am very disappointed he didn’t have a change of clothes. Wtf was the guy thinking
They teach you how to touch a computer just like every university in 2024
The NYT article in the thread about him being arrested said something about him being in an ivy league school
Not only that. He got talked into taking off his mask by the hostel girl with a cheap “oh haha your smile is so pretty, please take it off, definitely not for the camera behind me because we want to use this stuff to catch you if you’re here to commit a crime” and giving her a smile. If this is indeed him. It would have been so easy too. He could have just changed his look a little before the hit, not taken off the mask, used gloves, disposed of his gun and made sure he had nothing incriminating on him.
Honestly not surprised.
So many people were (and will now act like they never did this btw) talking shit for days about how clever the adjuster was, how he had them all fooled, how perfect the crime was, how the cops were just making up random things like finding food he ate which they got DNA off (pro-tip: never let them get a sure match on your DNA, if they can’t put a name to you but have enough evidence that a name is all they need to find to convict, you’re going to be fucked for a crime like this because eventually a relative will use a DNA testing company that will sell to the cops who will be checking shit like this against it annually for the next 25 years to catch you for killing most important bourgeoisie and then it’s just a matter of narrowing down your family tree, following people, and getting your DNA sample surreptitiously and you’re fucked unless you’re out of the country and out of extradition range by then). All that talk about you know first 48 and I was just shaking my head. Of course I hoped along with everyone else he did get away and disappear but the cops were saying too many things and the reward numbers were not going up like you’d expect for a crime with no real leads or evidence.
Reminder that in The Beekeper Jason Statham plays a guy whose whole thing is bees and he’s a member of a secret society called Beekeepers, but none of the other beekeepers are all about bees, so that’s not a Beekeeper thing, but just something Jason Stathams character does.
