      Al Capone and Pablo Escobar are weird choices too. Gangsters and drug lords are usually not revolutionaries, mostly they are just wannabe capitalists who weren’t lucky or smart enough to realize that the real money is in the much bigger crime that all the bankers and the oligarchs engage in, and doing so mostly legally too because they managed not just to bribe a few corrupt politicians here and there but to own and control the entire system to write laws in their favor.

      George Orwell? Where?

      At least he meant historical Jesus but should have probably used different photo, doesn’t explain the rest of these.
