Cf. the Burket essay Terrance posted earlier:
Zoyd uses words like "fascist" to describe the government, but
he does not bother to challenge it or try to resist it; he simply
evades it as much as possible. Not to mention the fact that, despite
his protest to the contrary, he has not really avoided becoming an
agent of the State law enforcement apparatus: his "defenestration"
performance, paid for with his disability check, shows him really
to be working for the State whether he admits it or not.
