I mean, would you prefer the symbol of a revolution against entrenched power be this?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 14 points 6 days ago

Yes. And I'm tired of pretending otherwise.

No, especially because we don't actually know if Luigi is the guy.

Doesn't matter. Green Mario is perfect. Working class, deals with literal shit daily, is scared of everything, and still does the thing. Red Mario has it easy, he's not scared of CEO Bowser, he doesn't have to overcome his fear - because he's confident. Which is cool, good for him. But Red Mario is unachievable as a role model. Be more like Green Mario who does it scared, who does it alone, who does it anyway.
