its required that every day you think about women kissing

there's something really fun about how like. according to all Sources i have found many sailors abandoned the royal navy for piracy because the navy was so hierarchical and the officers were given so much power and piracy was the more egalitarian and democratic option. but flint comes from the navy as someone who managed to work his way up to officer and as someone who seems to prefer to function inside those rigid structures, or at least to be most at home there. so even as he is ostensibly fighting for the greater egalitarianism of the pirate world and of progressive values in general it's just not something that he personally is able to value. he doesn't have a democratic bone in his body. he went to the pirate republic talking about kings and wanting to quite literally run it like the navy and tried to fight for that pirate republic while acting like his word was law and every democratic proceeding was an annoying hinderance to his dictatorial rule. it's so good. i like him
