#I love this distinction between what Moon Knight does/did in vol. 9 compared to other heroes
#don’t get me wrong I obviously love Spider-Man (and only to a slightly lesser extent Daredevil) but this is a cool difference
#feels a little more grounded almost like community defense as opposed to a high-flying cape issue
#also fascinating comparing to a drug implying these low level villains are thrill seekers/adrenaline junkies
#but most critically…hmmm….this may just be more indicative of my own perspective than anything (bear with me)
#but interestingly those last two text boxes on finding the balance between keeping a group too scared to make a move
#and not so scared that they get desperate/have nothing left to lose
#is very similar to the basis of a theory of counterinsurgency
#that an iron fist can keep a group from developing means + will to organize but the ruling regime must be careful
#to not be too cruel or else it will push the group into survival mode/win it sympathy from the local or international population
#(it’s very reminiscent of Machiavelli’s The Prince)
#Mind you it’s a theory usually entertained by authoritarian regimes where people have few de facto civil rights
#and its efficacy/sustainability’s debatable as it takes one hiccup with the regime (markedly weak ruler/secession crisis/natural disaster/
#excessive use of force/etc) for the insurgency to flair up again
#Marc’s past with the CIA is mentioned in this issue so I wonder if that’s what this is all about
#but uuuuuh yeah do with that info what you will sorry hahaha
#don’t mind me rambling in the tags
