The more this shit goes on, the more I find myself aligning with the villains in James Bond films. Burn this whole system to the fucking ground!

The irl villains we're dealing with took inspiration from Bond... or vise versa.

Seriously, Tomorrow Never Dies and Quantum of Solace have pretty obvious real world examples.

Maybe Golden Eye would be nice, but only because they wanted to destroy the banks while robbing them.
