nope nope nope I hate it
I know it's the standard "Vetinari gets told to fuck off by the other poshos" bit and he's always back in about a week like nothing ever happened but this one is the one that bothers me most because it's genuinely terrifying thinking about what could happen right now without someone sensible running the show
and also I just fucking HATE Lord Rust lmao
anyway in other news:
I love how this ties in with "you're an officer of the law, not a soldier of the government" in Night Watch: Vimes has a consistent philosophy and that philosophy is that law enforcement needs to be entirely separate from military power
and he's right
also, again, I hate Lord Rust so much, mostly due to my general loathing of the type of braying racist that makes up both the Ankh-Morpork and British aristocracy, but also for the additional and slightly more specific reason that he's extremely reminiscent of the arseholes who gave us brexit and whatever the fuck is currently going on here regarding asylum seekers
