Metaphorically speaking (politically, too), clu reminds me of Stalin. Which I guess would make kevin flynn as... karl marx? People interpreted the Communist Manifesto in various ways (purists (and tankies) feels overrated, though.) Personally, it (manifesto) made good points but it underestimated interesting aspects of capitalism (primary stage of socialism - wikipedia) and unfortunately left a powerful stigma (deaths, like the ISOS in tron legacy) in the word socialism.
If Marx were alive and saw the amount of deaths caused by Mao and Stalin, would he have justified it? No idea. For all I know he'd be like... wait, no, that's too much I was wrong or just slow down this is too much death, I'm just a theorist. You don't have to go that far, I've made good points but I'm not gospel, I'm not perfection and my theories aren't universal or could use some revision or they're more like guidelines, maybe shape it a bit to adapt to the present and future. I understand that now. I'm sorry, Clu (stalin/mao).
