Those fanatics’ puzzlement more or less is sensible: each and every of the six Ricks at the council is, neatly, Rick, and Rick has little need for authority of any sort. Over on Reddit, Rick and Morty aficionados have got into some lovely concerned discussions round this very level. On a thread discussing why there could be any elegance inequities within the Fortress if everyone is both a Rick or a Morty, consumer TheZunker27 spoke to the fandom’s confusion over the Council. “The first time we see the Fortress there used to be the Council of Ricks however that is not sensible […] since they are all supposedly the similar,” they wrote, happening to opine that “It is a shaggy dog story about how it doesn’t matter what there’ll all the time be individuals who assume they’re higher than everybody else and need to rule and oppress.”
Consumer raven0usvampire identified that one Rick states explicitly that the entire Ricks at the Council have the similar IQ, writing that the road “actually underlines the adaptation in school when actually they are the similar.” They went on to say, “I don’t believe maximum Ricks are that a lot other from one any other” — however is that actually the case? We do not assume it essentially is, and consumer unknownpoltroon just about nailed the explanation why: “Rick is the neatest man on the earth, in our universe,” they wrote. “Multiply that via countless universes with a bell curve, you get a large number of Ricks who’re kinda practical.”
