  Who do we think is next? I’m hoping for Kirby or maybe Animal Crossing.

      Arch-Capitalist Kirby in a top hat, mustache, and a monocle?

    StarFox, but it’s a couple of rogue F-22 pilots

    I think we need to branch out from just Nintendo. I like the idea of Spyro showing up to the party

      I think we have to ease people away from Nintendo, use one of the Rare IP’s like Banjo Kazooie, or Conker!

      Yeah, I see Conker as the symbol of the revolution.

  Man, the adoption of corporate “owned” copyright/trademarks as mascots of anticapitalist backlash just makes me happy.

    That’s why they hate memes so much.
