some pro-Isntrael commentor named “Nakba Nancy” crying crocodile tears about muh incitement to violence

Can’t make this shit up

All the (mostly white) libs in there more upset about them “violating her privacy” (in a distance from the stalls) than Sinema herself. All the while Sinema continues to ruin said protestors’ lives in a more “civil” way.

It’s entirely intentional that Joyce is one of the more affable people you come across juxtaposed to Evrart who is an unscrupulous sleazeball; yet one is knowingly an agent of Capital perpetuating misery (and eventually death) in Revachol while the other represents a net good for Martinaise and potentially a force for positive change, however messy and flawed.

People hung up on his amoral actions in that thread are apparently missing the wider context about how bleak things are in a city where Corpos feel comfortable enough to hire bloodthirsty, racist mercenaries to break strikes.
