What did he mean by this?

that he's going to break a few eggs but it's to make an omlette, Harry. Everyone loves omlettes.

Evrat was so fucking slimy and well done as a character. His motivations and actions are understandable but at the end of the day he runs the union, and the town if he could, like a mob boss
>>
>>739591343
He and his brother are mob bosses who got the deserter to assassinate the old union head and now the two of them take turns wearing it like a skinsuit.
>>739592878
His motivation is to use the rotting corpse of the union as a front for a massive drug trade operation.

Evrart was a real communist using the guise of being a corrupt union boss to protect him from assassination while he worked to obtain power.
>>
>>739591343
On some level he did honestly care for his people, but only his people and he wanted everything done for them to also flow back into his own ego.

What is it about Disco Elysium that exposes just how blind to even the thinnest layer of irony some people, typically Americans, are?

Evrart is a corrupt union manager who represents how typically populism is exploited by people with no shame. He is a stereotype of that kind. Extremely obviously. And yet it confuses people. The entire game seems to confuse people.

How could people possibly go through their lives without being encountering media which says one thing but means another?

Reminder the Claires aren't secret communists planning a new Revolution, they're just left-leaning mobsters who hate capitalists and are planning on ruining the rest of Jamrock, and large parts of the rest of Revachol, to empower themselves and maybe make Martinaise better. Keeping in mind that in order to make Martinaise better they've also been screwing over the locals and will keep doing so.
>>
>>739605730
Ruining the world to empower yourself is the meaning of life.
>>
>>739605730
>who hate capitalists
They are capitalists. The whole point of taking control of the port is to deal drugs so they can make a lot of money. They aren't improving Martinaise. They are just at odds with the other capitalists. The big companies who can afford to hire the death squads.

They tell the members of their union that they are 'for the people'. That's the point. That any ideal notions of communism or socialism will inevitably be utilized by opportunists like them.

you're a cop not a union buster
>>
>>739606437
Evrart bribes and coerces you, a police officer. He has also committed murders and who knows what else.

There are justifications why Harry wouldn't arrest Evrart though. Lack of evidence that would hold up. The fact that taking down a mob boss could cause a lot of violence. That Harry is only a lieutenant and hasn't talked with his captain about this. And the fact that Martinaise is a relatively unmanned district.

And of course for plot reasons, which you have to suspend disbelief for.

>>739610862
Allow me to explain the joke to you on account of you being so ridiculously retarded that you can't work it out.

See, first we have Harry, who is a lowly and poor police officer claiming he is an ultraliberal. Which is pretty absurd to begin with if you understand what he is actually claming. Then he tells Evrart about this for no particular reason, just making deranged assertions of his personal ethics to someone he doesn't really have a reason to. To which Evrart plays the straight man, telling Harry that he isn't, that is ridiculous and he is a retard, the unexpected cursing adding to the joke. And then to cap the joke rather than saying so indignantly or skeptically Evrart smiles warmly, another misdirect.

Now, I know you won't have read or understood any of that because your kind if illiterate. But I think you should probably not waste your efforts on games like this that require thought and go back to masturbating to Sonic the Hedgehog, yes?
>>
>>739611189

>>
>>739603089
>why do people struggle with tongue in cheek?
People don't.
Most of the people I've known personally to like this game are the kind who don't mind that he's corrupt because he's still a union manager at the end of the day.
He could be anything and still be the same character with the same power dynamic, yet because his occupation is union man, that's the only reason people like him and the fiction surrounding him.
>>
>>739611510
>says something he never would
Harry absolutely would, because we know he is a drug addled and self-delusional. It's another moment where ultra-liberal Harry tries to big up himself
>to a guy who doesn't care
Evrart cares because he's not a moron and doesn't want to waste his time on retards. Harry is trying to snidely contradict him with a banal non-argument
>now this guy just responds to him with an insult and a smile
Because it's in character with Evrart. It reinforces his thin veneer of cordial profesionalism over utter disgust and hatred.
The joke is the clashing of personalities. The joke is the reflection of real life bathos.

I think its more interesting if Evrart is actually a genuine union man trying to improve the lives of the workers, AND a shamelessly corrupt gangster, and doesn't care about the contradiction.
>>
>>739601935
so never wear tshirts

>>739616827
Where's the contradiction? The point of a labor organizer is to organize and wield power. Same as a mafioso. People were striking long before striking itself was legal. And he has effectively brought a major corporation to its knees in hopes of creating a worker-owned cooperative to replace them on the docks.

I want to preface this by reminding you that 4chan=/=real world, 99% of the posters here are Asmongold tier unrepentant troglodytes with no moral compass or intellect given almost complete freedom to vomit whatever deranged train of thought they have at any given time.
Having said that, the problem people have when it comes to understand DE is that the game is deliberately written to stand in the liminal zone between ironic parody and cynical representation of how fucked up the real world is, and since it mostly achieves this it throws people off guard because the vast majority of people vastly overestimate both their literacy and moral compass.

This is more common in the average american because they have been finely indoctrinated for generations to be slaves to the corporate state AND fervently believe they're better than anyone else on the planet.
Characters like Evrart go over their heads because they have been brainwashed to believe that corporations and rich people can do no wrong and anything that isn't in service of corporate/private profit is a scam by people who want to subvert capitalism, the american dream of self made men, freedom and the american state as a whole.
Europeans tend to understand Evrart's character more because Europe had a consistent history of actual left leaning politics and various communist/socialist parties, actual unions and all the scandals and scams associated to that specific establishment, Evrart is recurring stereotype with strong roots in that cultural history that endure to this day so it's immediately relatable to the average european since they most likely saw and interacted with people like him irl.
To the average american on the other hand Evrart is almost completely alien because most of them didn't live in the time of working unions nor do they care about them, most of them lived in post Reaganomics times where anything slightly left of Friedman was widely demonized.
>>
You can tell who in this thread at the minimum actually passed the Empathy checks with Evrart and ideally looked at the full span of the character and who is going off a single playthrough at that.
>>
>>739620828
That sounds like you're getting finessed by someone who has identified the kinds of noises necessary to get you to calm down and work for him.
