Assuming there'd ever be some "evil villain" or

Politics or religion could draw in some people.

If people will let themselves be used as toilets for money then they'll probably be a minion for money too.

I've honestly wondered this before just because of how comically ridiculous it is. Like to join Cobra or whatever just seems like the stupidest move possible, they literally never put so much as a dent in the protagonists and are always defeated, you aren't even gonna be paid long because your evil scheme inevitably always is ended quickly.

US lobbyists

Aum Shinrikyo is the closest thing to what you're describing. They were the ones responsible for the sarin attack in Tokyo way back.

iirc, they had a few Hind helicopters and a factory to make some shitty AK74's or something.

That's just what you see on the movies. You don't get to see all the bases that took 5+ years to build that needed guarding and the bases where the world destroying super laser never got over the technical issues working on such breaking tech always brings and never achieved operational status. Thousands of jobs right there.

There was a similar armed cult group in the US called the Rajneesh. They even built a fairly large city in Oregon. They ended up carrying out the largest bio-terror attack in the US

Really now? Citation plox? If so, I assume those Hinds they possessed are Cold War-era ones they acquired via the Black Market for dirt cheap prices?

Well anon all I just need is a pair of tits with legs and I'd be willing to work for any James Bond/Cartoon villain.

Did they only have one Uzi they passed around for all their photo ops?

Imagine seeing any PMCs wearing uniforms like that.

Also I'm sure rifles are best to never be slung like that on your back.

Not really from the sound of it. The ones who conducted the attack were apparently a minority.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rajneeshpuram#Increasing_tensions
> heightened tension led certain fundamentalist Christian church leaders to denounce Rajneesh, the commune, and his followers.[3] Petitions were circulated aimed at ridding the state of the perceived menace.[3] Letters to state newspapers reviled the Rajneeshees, one of them likening Rajneeshpuram to another Sodom and Gomorrah, another referring to them as a "cancer in our midst."[3] In time, circulars mixing "hunting humor" with dehumanizing characterizations of Rajneeshees began to appear at gun clubs, turkey shoots and other gatherings; one of these, circulated widely over the Northwest, declared "an open season on the central eastern Rajneesh, known locally as the Red Rats or Red Vermin."[8]
Yeah, the cultists were totally the only bad-guys in this situation.

And considering the constant threats and harassment the community was facing, it's quite justified for people living there to be armed in self defense.

Mastermind was such a cool game.

Realistically it depends on how good their lawyers are. They could probably get away with running their bullshit for a while but the second they tried something they'd probably get over run and the doom laser would get sent to some research lab.

You'd just have to promise them 72 virgins.

They're from the Bowling Green Massacre timeline.

They weren't part of our reality until early last year when Kek collapsed their timeline into ours to allow Trump to win.

I think another thing to question when it comes to working as a henchman or minion for some EEEEEVIL cartoon villain, is patriotism and love for country.

So assuming one guy, or a couple, or many are contractors who took up the job of being the minions of a Bond Villain or Saturday Morning Cartoon badguy. How would it be or feel when those minions find out one of the phases of said villain's plan involves destroying their hometown or home country?

>Cartoon villain you're working for as a minion says he plans to take over the world
>learn and find out he has an arsenal of illegally obtained nukes or some "Doom Laser" as OP said
>Cartoon-tier Villain will blow up half of *insert name of country or nation here* with arsenal of illegally obtained or Doom Laser
>the country and place you lived in, grew up and love will be destroyed by some evil bald, pointy nosed autist who wears a cape and high collar outfit

Wat do?

>>33246669
>Or alternatively, how'd realistic governments or realistic military deal with the cartoony villain with the army of evil minions?

CIA, NSA and FBI operations, Drone Strikes via the military, Seal Team Six and JTF2 spec-ops and fast roping action to beat those minions.
