      Nah, if they were running, they wouldn’t be making a violent example out of Saint Luigi. They’re trying to cow the peasants but showing what happens if you try to stand up to them. I hope they fail, and I hope the optics of this completely backfire.

        They’re trying to make a violent example of him because they’re running scared. They’re terrified of copycats. They think that projecting an image of fearless anger will distract from the fact that they’re always looking over their shoulders.
