“You let one ant stand up to us,
then they all might stand up.
Those puny little ants
outnumber us a hundred to one.
And if they ever figure that out,
there goes our way of life!
It’s not about food.
It’s about keeping those ants in line.”
Americans only enjoy the truth if you disguise it as fiction. So many movies about people coming together to solve problems for the sake of the greater good. So little of this in life.
Maybe we could advertise for extras in an epic movie about Americans revolting against fascism, and then stand by with cameras shouting “action!” while the people get the job done.

Hence the reaction to Luigi from the establishment.

Hell yeah! That sounds like a fantastic idea.
