            Raghava (who is here btw say hi) points out that this story could have easily been about an opportunist who sold out a revolution but it's not. That would require someone other than Lelouch being the protagonist
        1. …in reply to @__MoBlack
          Or more specifically, the fundamental framing of the show. We're going to finish the episode before finishing this thought, actually. Because Lelouch isn't necessarily 100% a good protagonist either so how the show criticizes him will be important

                                  So Zero invents a super complicated plan to get himself and his ethnicity deported. But wouldn't he need a complicated plan to not get deported? The Chinese Federation, with its tensions with Britannia would probably just take refugees

                                    More importantly, a settler colony would probably not mind a few thousand of the ethnic underclass leaving the country. This is literally "brown people go home/somewhere else". Like many Israelis would love it if every Palestinian moved to Jordan, Lebanon, or Egypt
