Funny thing, poor working class people never really have the opportunity to bribe government officials. Yes, I will see my petty ass out.

You do need money to bribe people.

I mean, you can bribe with things like offers of favors or services, but that usually means that you’re handing a much bigger amount of power to them than you would if you were using money.

True, true. I just went to money based on the conversation they were having.

Regardless, homeless beggers don’t tend to have anything to bribe people with.

Thinking about it he was very comfortable attempting to bribe those guards in episode 9. I didn’t really think about it at the time.

This post was mostly aimed at the people in the fandom who declared Caleb the new working class hero ready to call for a communist revolution, a story that is… Shaky, at best. And even bribing someone with favors means you have a certain amount of social, political or economic power, which Caleb wants us all to believe he absolutely doesn’t, and that’s intruiguing – but I wish the fandom would pay more attention to these details before, you know, jumping to conclusions.
